the wheels finish the car

[Brammer]

Cheers for the comments folks, they are what the car needed. Not cheap but worth every penny in my eyes.

Just wait to get the upper spoiler sorted for the rear then the car will look different again.

One thing i did notice straight away is the car handles completely different and to be honest not as good as the 15" but some things have to give.

Update on the engine side of things i have never managed to cure the slight judder in the rev range so i have decided to go for the MSD wasted spark conversion and get them to check the map around vacuum pressure.

I nearly make the big jump last week and buy a T4 hybrid but chickened out at the last minute but CR Turbo's will be overhauling the T34 for including 360's and poss angled blades etc.

More updates when i have some more money

[Ruishy1]

where an absolute stunner of a car like this is concerned mate, you will NEVER have any money

but its money well spent IMO

[285Andy]

the wheels look awesome on that matey

[Brammer]

Finally got some decent pictures and now i can confirm the wheel sizes.

I have slight scrubbing on the rear arches when the car is on load and i've discovered why

The fronts are 8.5 x 17" and the rears are 9.5 x 17" i was told they were 7.5" front and 8" rear, never mind wider the better

[jonboisescort]

looks lurvly mate you wide baxtard

[Turboboy67]

9.5J rears

no lardy rear seat passengers then mate,

Thats Jayrs and myself out then

[Max M4X WW]

And I thought EsCos wheels looked chunky on them

[frst2006]

Just seen the new wheels. Bet you're well chuffed, nice and wide, look so much better

[RS EDDIE]

That is double hard mate.....Everytime i want my escos, i keep thinking...Maybe a moonstone three door with the rimmage on this one??????.......Stunning mate.

[LeePFRST]

Stunning mate Am unbelievably attracted to those wheels! May get a set for my push bike!

[M1K3Y_B]

Those wheels look perfect on there

[Ruishy1]

get your arches rolled by a pro, will give you an extra 20mm of room easy

[Brammer]

Small update

My RS500 upper spoiler will be with me next Tuesday and will be straight in the paintshop and fitted by the end of the week along with the lower spoiler.

I have been speaking to Dave from DMB and he is making up some new graphics for me which include:

I had made a replica image of the compomotive centre cap but have since gone off the idea as it wouldn't look right against the black paint



So i've decided to go with the more subtle design in 66mm



Like i said in other posts that i didn't want to badge the car as anything other than it is so instead of the tickford badge i have this badge made in gel overlay to go in the same place. 95mm x 12mm



And the new wing badge which is slightly different to the one that's on the car at the minute but will be in the darker colour to match the origianl colour boot decal.

[Turboboy67]

Just gets better and better mate

[jimmyesh]

Loving this car, 3 Doors in Black look agressive as hell Will look the nuts with the RS500 bits fitted.

[jayrs]

[frstvanman]

that cossie looks luvly.

[Chris 2i]

I love it

[Brammer]

Couple of pictures of mine at Hartside cafe on Sunday, 1903ft above sea level and it was proper cold

[AdmanGrippa]

You took it out when the ground was wet!

Hope you gave it a clean when you got back home

Cars looking sweeeeeeeeet Chris

[MENACE]

them wills look lovely on your car.absolutely love black 3 door cossies especially standard looking ones.top job you have done on this one mate

[Brammer]

Got the spoiler today in a wooden crate yes it looked like a coffin , but my painter is off for the week so it'll be next week now.

Here's some pictures of the car with the badges fitted.




Wheel centre in the compomotive font they don't normal do their centres in but i think it looks better than the standard design.



And wing badges which i quite like.

[jayrs]

looking good mate, its always the little touches that look the best

[muz]

That looks stunning Chris. Made the right choice with those centre caps and the motorsport badges look sweet. Don't fancy a swap for a half molested *cough* I mean half finished Series 2?

[Brammer]

Well it's back and i'm made up, the spoilers make the car look loads better.

I wanted to get out and take some pictures but the weather closed in so i'll take it out over the weekend.

[fiend]

I have to say the spoilers have made a big difference, looks awesome.

As Jay said too, all those small touches make it stand out so much more.

[filtra]

How is the Airtec FMIC going, thinking about getting one for the FRST.

[jayrs]

as always mate


pic of the rear makes it look like its dented around the lock? im guessing thats just the pic chris?

[Xr_Dub]

reminds me of my wheels

very cool

[Brammer]

Coolers fine mate and it's noticed a difference but it's 20mm thicker, i personally think the are decent, yes heavy but the welds are perfectly fine and deal with my 25psi+ so on a RS Turbo they'd be no problem

as always mate

Just the pic mate

[jayrs]

thats ok then, thought it would be, couldnt see you living with a bug splate on the windscreen let alone a dent

[FRSJON]

[Brammer]
