Hello mate, and welcome to the forum.
If youre looking to slam it, springs and blocks are available from classicswede in the for sale section, youre on your own with the wheel hunt though. Ive been trying to nab some for months!

Welcome to V3M I hope you enjoy the cr and youyr stay here

cheers fellas

will have a look at the lowering



picked up the 340 off kaos today

running like a bag of shit

but got about half way home when it cut out and wouldmt restart

so towed it the rest of the way home only to find out it had run out of petrol

guess the fuel gauge dont work as it said i had half a tank

owell


tomorrow i am going to try and sort the running problem

at is very lumpy

Jesus.
Bad crack man.
Sounds like a pretty weak adverture you had there mate.
Hope its an easy fix for you.
Need any help, just ask and im sure someone will keep you right.

When yoy are fed up you often over look checking the obvious things Hope you sort the running issues

found the running problem today

it was only running only 3 cylinders

so checked the spark had spark

so whipped the rocker cover off

one of the pushrods on the inlet had come off the rocker arm

If i'd have been bothered.......... lol

Runs like a bag of shit but ran none the less least its with some one that will get better use out of it than me. With regards to the guage, could be because its sat for a while. but check the connections under the boot floor through the hatch in the floor.

I'll check my tech books tomorrow when im alive and away from work. and get back on rockers if one of the guys hasnt.

Sorry i couldnt have been there but some ones got to pack the boxes where i work lol. I also hear you got a weee tour of my 16v...

that would be kool if you could do that

the gauge seems to work now lol


your 16v gave me some ideas

looks like its goin to be a beast once done

here are some pics

as you can see i have lowered it and dewipered and debadged the rear

got rid of those headlight washers



orange wheels just a photoshop

looks good man.
Propper Nasty.
