Looks like a bit of a mare :shock:

Well done getting it sorted sm40

I think there was a receipt in with the bearing - get in touch with Highland Auto Parts, Inverness for a refund.

well the drift day was a sucsess!!! woo hooo was dry all day and my car had no problems spinning the wheels up :D :D
but it did highlight some minor issues;
1. i have a lack of skill with a bit more power. im used to fighting my old 340 every step of the way and the glt is a bit easier resulting in me spinning lots lol
but its better than not having enough power to spin the wheels in the dry. so just a case of getting used to it

2. handbrake is poop lol so will get a hydraulic one in the near future :D then instant wheel locking

3. when i got down to half a tank the fuel pump started getting starved of fuel when sideways so im guessing a swirl pot will solve this problem?

apart from the above the car is awesome but i just need the practice as the increase in power did highlight how poop i really am lol
but i had fun that the main thing
but got some pics of it rocking the wellers for you all
Image
Image
Image
and a pic of my new seat fitted
Image
and some nice wheel fitment :D :D :D
Image
no spacers, just 13"x6j wellers with awesome offset and some arch rolling
sorry for poop pics
one of the photographers aparently got some "pretty sweet shots" of me attempting to skid lol
so ill post them up when he sends me them
cheers
