Title: todays work
Post by: TRANTER on 28 April 2008, 19:48

Been busy setting up my car ready for going to my first track day. Got my engine running how i like it with a new service all leads plugs and so on, today i have done a new oil and filter even tho its only done 2500 miles since the last one. Sprayed all the engine in degreaser and pressure washed it, now i can finaly see the engine and gearbox. Got around to fitting my omp front brace and new rocker seal as there was a slight seap of oil from the old one. Next was the uprated brakes from 8v to 16 valve brakes with new wheel bearings and brake fliud - the brakes were ebc grooved discs and mintex fast road pads. with goodridge brake lines . and to help out i removed the front fog lights and placed some vents in to help cool the brakes. next came and good clean inside and out and a good wax heres some pics let me no what you think.

What size are those wheels? They look good, a little different to "the norm" at the moment.  :smiley:
