I definately prefer the white wheels myself, they suited the age of the car alot better and looked more rally slag :)

The window valance is ace haha love it! I definately need to get my rubstrips off too now seeing yours :) cool car dude!

Thanks! :]

Because it gets winter the white wheels will get on again. The white's aren't very good either..

A friend made 3 - 4 - 5 - 6 and 8 cm lowering blocks for the rear, so I can try something what suits best.
Looking what to do with the front springs, it should not be very stif so the car keeps oversteered. But it can be a little bit more stiff.

It's on 4 koni's now, a amazing difference. The rear very stiff, the front acceptabel stiff. Drives very nice :]

Driving the welded variodiff right now, its very funny. It really has its pro and contra's. I've been driving it for two days now. Hope it will last :lol:

Also did a little update on my website

Yes, they are hard to find. In holland they sometimes appear.

Probably i will get some video action on tape. Can't wait till friday..

Good effort as always!! Nice pics ;) I love the fact a 1.4 variomatic can mix it with the usual kind of drift cars!

Looks great fun :)
And it has to be said, that's a decent size shed! Plenty of space for working on cars there. Was it an aircraft hanger?

Yes, it was an aircraft hangar

Some youtube action! @ 0:30 and 3:07

Oh man, that looks like fun! Maybe I should get my grip-free turkish summer tyres out of the cellar and have a go! The Niederrhein's not far from me ...
