  • made a 'weighted' shift rod. pity my bushes are buggered though.

    re did the camber settings, but somehow managed to do something wrong and now am getting some really bad vibrations. probably the alignment being way off!

        • I grinded the crap out of my brake calipers to fit my Riken wheels (with 15mm H&R spacers). I also started getting the heron motor ready to put onto the engine stand. Couple of other bits and bobs too.
