New bits and pics

Well just thought i'd put up some pics of my 16v. Firstly my CV's boots popped and made a BS mess, so some cleaning and newly overhauled cv's later we have success. Also i made an effort to paint those ugly hub bolts, now thats detication.


mmmm now just sit back and enjoy the darkness hehe

new CV's mmm clean

And also i just got hte new springs in, Managed to find the rubber tubing they put on the first coils, just a nice finishing touch.

Just some nice pics, quite glossy, not bad for original paint, minus the bumpers and skirts

Cheers all yea as all people know they are an ongoing project but a labour of love, also this car has won 1st outright in the SA AROC and put down good times at Mallala, YES it has seen the track too.

Even with all the work done on my car, I wouldn't race you yet either

I'm starting to regret not porting/polishing my heads and installing new cams... next time the engine comes out methinks!

You can use Alfa 145/155 16V discs with those commodore calipers. They fit straight on the hub, with 4 x 98 hole pattern, and the offset's correct for the calipers. Couldn't be any easier. Good range of off the shelf race pads available for those calipers as well.

Trickiest bit is mucking around with the rear brakes and the master cylinder to get the pedal travel and balance right.
