And still waiting on the friction plate turning up.

 

Most parts fitted.Still waiting for friction plate.

 

 

 

Looks like Ryan has been working hard :-)

Looking good, looks like you'll have some decent castor !

 

He has been very busy on my car lately.
The problem is while waiting for the clutch plate to arrive I keep thinking of other mods that can be done. The back end will have to wait a couple of months till I have saved up my pocket money.

 

Very nice Dave.


What ARB's are you using? I like the welded on ARB retaining washers to stop side to side movement. That's a nice touch.

 

Perrin front and rear arb

 

They look much better than my Whiteline ones.

 

They are freshly painted,I wonder how long they will look like that ?

 

They will still last miles longer than Whiteline stuff. The Whiteline stuff looks rusty and old in no time at all. Tempted to take all my bits off and have them freshly powder coated.

 

He has fitted a few Whiteline bits I hope they stay tidy for quite a while.
They cost enough !!

 

You'll be fine Dave. The orange anodised Whiteline stuff on mine still looks fine after thousands of every day road miles in all conditions. It's the painted Whiteline bits like the silver ARB's that look very poor very quickly.

 

Almost on queue... Someone has just posted a couple on here up for sale. That's how mine look after 1 seasons use.

Chris @ CDF uses Whiteline bars and re-paints them CDF orange to sell on as his own.


If I had to buy again I'd probably go Superpro. Have quite a lot of their parts on mine mixed in with the Whiteline parts and they are very good indeed.

 

I had the Superpro roll centre kit fitted when I had the Bilsteins fitted,didn't fare very well.Just been replaced.

 

That's very interesting to hear. So far so good with all my bits thankfully.

 

Ryan has been coating the parts with ACF50. Hopefully that will help them last.

 

 

Waiting for this clutch plate is getting a bit tedious!!
The only plus is I haven't been driving on the salt covered roads lately.

 

At last the clutch plate has arrived !!

 

It's being put back together as we speak.

 

 

 

 

It’s all back together now just the tracking to be done.
Hopefully have the rear suspension refurbished in August.

 

That looks lovely Dave. You could eat your dinner off of that engine bay!


Very nice indeed.

 

I can’t afford any dinner !!

 

Ryan should be buying you dinner and flowers with the amount of money you must have spent with him now! God only knows mate. You must have practically bought him a house now!!!

 

Daddy Daddy can we have a pony ?
You will have to wait till Dave wants some more work done to his car 🚙

 

All sorted now I collect it Friday .Then I will have to get used to this clutch.
