You have been busy. Keep up the good work.

Of those 4 wheels, I like the 1st and 3rd sets the best. They are all fairly similar, so width and offset might be the deciding factor.

So used half day trying to get front bumper on.. well that worked like ****.

Front bumper is broken in every mechanism, its of course glassfiber replica etc.

Gonna use TEC7 and glue the **** together, get it approved at "MOT" / Tüv , then change bumper and side flares/fenders and get a respray

Started looking a bit more under the car, the car looks way better than I thought. Except from surface-rust on "fenders" outside and some here and there outside there isnt that much. A bit rust under where the rear exhaust is sitting but ive just temp fixed it with Ferro-bet. Will do something with it in the summertime.

Good afternoon, great project of yours, I am with a similar one and a doubt arises, I want to gain progress on the front axle and I think it would be possible to gain a lot by mounting the lower left suspension ball joint on the right side and vice versa. I don't know if anyone has tried it, or yourself. Thank you.

Thank you :


Think I've read about that but not sure how that would plan out.

What is your goal with that?

My intention is to gain progress on the front wheels and, in this way, improve handling.

Yup, was just wondering if it would give more /less camber or caster

More caster, very much maybe.

Think U'll change caster, not recomended ?

[larsaskogstad]

Hmm would add some positive caster, or not sure / havent thought about how its originally compared to upper ball joint or strut mount.
Havent thought about how it is usually on the coupe´s, not sure how it would be in relation to the camber/toe setting if its possible to generate a good result or not (at least with stock components).

[Waje]

It would win a positive caster but the problem I see is that I could crash against the chassis or mudguard.

Hm that might be a problem yes

Hm that might be a problem yes

And you would need to move the rack forward by the same amount
