changed all oils to day and can't beleve that the gear-box runs on 10w40 semi engine oil.
i will be posting picks of the engine when it is finished (2weeks) with a few surprises. watch this space.

Hmm, at least in here gearbox oil should be ATF, that is what user's manual says.

Car looks very nice, maybe some videos will follow from test drive?

Looks tight from the outside now. Intrigued on all the rear strut braces though, do they actually work? Thing I'm getting confused with is I always thought you were supposed to fit a brace, then tension it again the posts with the adjuster, and havn't seen any of the rears fitted being adjustable. Or do I have the wrong end of the stick?

over size the bar and a BIG hammer.
the braces on the top of the shocker tops put too much stress on the shocker mounts.

Ahhh, pre tensioned

I take it you mean just for the rear by mounting on the shock mounting, and not the 3 bolts up front?

Post by **bennett** » 18 Mar 2006 08:09 pm

yes just the rear.

White wheel disks. And in fact how many to racing aggression they give to the machine. Even without external plastic tuning.

Perfectly looks

Cheers Omar
