Got through a few bits today; coilovers, KTR bolt in top mounts, KTR/Vibratechnics engine and gearbox mounts :race:
Once I'd had a drive and before it started to get dark, I thought I'd some quick snaps of how it's sitting on the coilovers; really happy with the results :D
Will get some better...
Re: Iceberg 172 Cup Project
Just got back with everything sorted; following a rather large b-road detour on the way home :cool:
Gaz coilovers fitted, along with KTR bolt in top mounts. KTR/Vibratechnics upper engine and gearbox mounts fitted :)
Love it! First impressions, very impressed with...
Re: cleaned/euro mk2 phase 1 (Spaced, streched, slammed more)
Good to hear you found somewhere! :)
I'm surprised etc said no when you phoned as, like I said, they've done it on my old car in the past.
I have my crossovers under my front passenger seat, then the amplifier mounted in the boot. It won't be staying there permanently, but does the job nicely for now and is out the way :)
I find it best to apply the dynamat in strips too, as it's easier to work with that way :)
Re: One Year on & £**** spent
Looks like there was a fair bit of metal to be removed from the tailgate; would be interested to know how much weight you saved overall :)
First photo is epic too! :cool:
Re: Iceberg 172 Cup Project
Cheers :cool:
Completely forgot about the dogbone mount! Been to order poly one today in the hope I can have it before Wednesday, although it's not looking too likely :(
Also had the new tyres mounted on the new turinis today, so they're ready for Wednesday now...
Re: Iceberg 172 Cup Project
Cheers for the comments; looking forward to getting the stuff on :D
Should all be done on Wednesday, the new wheels are going on then too :)
Re: Iceberg 172 Cup Project
Package waiting when I arrived home from work this afternoon :D
K-Tec / vibra-technics uprated upper engine and upper gearbox mounts
K-Tec bolt in suspension top mounts, in black
:cool:
Re: Iceberg 172 Cup Project
Slight issue appeared! Car is pulling slightly to one side with the wheel sitting off-centre and the back's stepping out at times! :(
Had a quick glance under the car and nearside rear shock isn't looking too healthy; covered in oil down the shock :dead: Not really...
Photo *****ing the best way to cure Sunday boredom! :cool:
Looks great; can't decided if I prefer the turinis or the 2118's on it, both look so good! :approve:
Where did you go for the pics? somewhere local I assume?
Re: Iceberg 172 Cup Project
Decided it's probably best to do these the same time the coilovers are fitted, so just ordered a set of the new black ones from K-Tec :)
I've been using Toyo Proxes T1R's for the past year or so and been very happy with them; just ordered some more actually :approve: £47 each in 195/45/R16 V
I'm currently toying with the idea of ITB's also :cool:
The Bimarco's seem very good value and looks as though people who have them are very happy with them! :)
Re: Iceberg 172 Cup Project
Booked a day off work to get coilovers fitted and set up; Wednesday 17th March :D
Ordered new tyres to go on the new turinis and, as I'm getting the knocking, just this moment ordered KTR uprated engine mounts to fix that :approve:
Probably solid top mounts for the...
