Roman Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Hey man, I'd be super keen to see this thing out on track again! Was stoked that you gave me a ride along on the orientation lap for last years nats, still grinning when I think about how fun this car was. Should get a few guys together and hit up a Hampton trackday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
punkoutnz Posted March 16, 2014 Share Posted March 16, 2014 Did you keep any of your old exhaust? Cant wait to see/hear the new setup! Sounds like a nice leap up from what you had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikuni Posted March 20, 2014 Share Posted March 20, 2014 Engine looks good. Let me know when you guys are heading to a track day again. Need to get out on the track! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shaneo Posted March 20, 2014 Author Share Posted March 20, 2014 Did you get the Gaz stuff locally or import it yourself? I got it from a mate but import it's cheaper by a long way . I like to support Kiwi as much as I can but escort parts are just over priced here with limited amount of parts here Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mfordy Posted March 21, 2014 Share Posted March 21, 2014 Gaz shocks. Nice... Did you buy some new halfshafts out of the UK or just second hand locally? Getting hard to find good ones now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got a second hand set but looks like that might not be the problem . We are changing the diff head on Monday as the car seems better but not fixed I have it for the weekend to have a play round with and get a few more bit and bobs done before the Gumboot rally. It does go a lot better now I have full throttle. If I cant fix it I will slowly buy brand new parts as that is the only bits that aren't brand new Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mfordy Posted March 31, 2014 Share Posted March 31, 2014 Pic looks pretty sharp... Capri vented disks with M16 spacer kit and good pads work great on my car. Easy to setup without mucking around with m/c and fairly cheap to setup. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The list of problems just doesnt end at the moment it's a money pit . Just had some poor quailty parts from the UK and hold up after hold up . but only a few things left on the running gear then the body finally. How is your car going? What are the quarter light windows like? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
