    Agreed Waddles, the phattest!

    Just a little one, taking baby steps in the right direction.
    Got my gauges this week, not Defi's but still good quality.
    5 60mm STRi DSD SLMll Gauges.


    Just need my Defi 80mm tacho to arrive so I can make up an Instrument cluster.
    It will be based on the standard positioning but on an aluminum back plate.

    Oh and I bought some more Meisters for the front. This time 15x8.5. I'll keep which ever pair fill and fit the best, and sell the other pair.

    Heya Dom86

    Nice build mate, great to see another coupe. I was down at Ben's having a chat awhile ago and saw your car on the hoist waiting for a transplant. Will be good to see the finished product. Hope it happens soon for you.

    Just a quicky......
    I fitted some tires to the 8.5 Meisters I bought, to check clearances. The extra half inch goes a long way

    At full lock there is a little of this and this
    But then I remembered that the suspension is not setup and there is still a lot of adjustment in the LCA's. The castor rods are at full positive adjustment however.
    If need be I'll tube the front a little and beat the fire wall a little more.
    But before that, any setup tips are welcome
    Looking good but going nowhere

    Hi, I wandered onto your street and track build threads and was given a great reminder how life can be unfair sometimes. =p

    Both your cars looking great mate! Hope you get them both on the road soon, it'll be a sight for sore eyes.
