Well I sorted it. Wasn't what he though but its okay.


Anyway figured a bit more of an update was needed so to clarify what's happened lately. Joey has had:
4 paddle unsprung win clutch
Solid lower engine mount
Xud gearbox
New wishbones
New track rod ends

Had a massive issue on the first drive, it felt like it was going to fall over. Back in the garage and I could see I had some tracking issues. So I tracked it up by eye and its much better now. Going for proper tracking sesh Thursday morning, just won't use it much til then!

Yeah I'm not sure if I like the vibrations or not yet. Makes for a very racecar drive. But just sat there on idle you can see the bonnet shaking and it literally hums lol!

Making a start on the 11mm within the week when the seal kit comes. Then get a cambelt kit and fit it all. Going to clean up and balance a set of injectors aswell, can afford new nozzles so will clean some up and see what happens!

Trackings done! Computer 4 wheel alignment for free isn't bad going! Got a bit much toe out on the drivers side rear wheel which is something to look at one day only a few minutes of a degree so not anything to worry about!

My old oem one i hit with a hammer and it fell out, it was shot. This solid lower is cool just my exhaust rattling away that needs to be sorted. Honestly that gt would be epic, but its alot to take on. Especially when this is my only car :/

60mm thick facking hell!

I put the orange indicators on as like people say it makes it look retro. Joey originally came with clear lenses being a later phase 2 205.

My main priority for looks is get the wheels powdercoated. But power will always come before that so i doubt it will ever happen tbh!
