I haven’t put them on the car yet just looked at them against the old bolts and it looks very close to not enouugh thread - your cage pick-ups would of been an advantage in this situation. I will probably be offering it up today so will see
Hey @Tomotek
I wanted to check if you had any issue with you chassis to rear beam mount bolts?
Just looking at them it looks like there isn’t enough thread to them.
UPDATED SPREADSHEET
I have got bolts and washers on here also, just not marked up where they need to go yet, I also did not put M8's on here as already had plenty of them.
I will be updating this list once I figure out what is needed where.
I did have an issue with Cromwells sending 2 lots of the wrong bolts though, hopefully that should be rectified when this order comes through.
QFT6001083S M12x85 SKT HEAD CAP SCREW x4
I ordered the above, however I believe I have been sent QFT6001083R (marked on the bag and shown in photo...
Tell me about it.... 7 moves, this will be the 8th and a 9th will follow. But 8 is to be on-site of the renovation of 9.... pretty exciting. The car hasn’t moved all of those times, but not far off.
UPDATE:
I have had to do a bit of juggling the past week or so as the car is again not top of the priority list just now. The life change I am talking of (and I think previously mentioned) is that of moving house again. My wife and I have the opportunity to redevelop a barn so to start the...
I will look at picking up some from a local paint place then, cheers. As for the other colours, how apt that I am moving to a farm... ha. That megane looks lovely too
At least its not exactly the same with this being a phase 1, I am also picking items out in yellow and black so will be a little different. Still very much a tip of the cap to you though. It is quite a nice job and with it being all over, inside, outside, underside it was far from a 2 day £400...
Unsure yet as another life change is about to happen, but that is why the car is being pushed through (to get it water tight). It will probably be pretty much done before March/April however there will be things needed like wheels, exhaust and a map, but that may have to wait a while... its a...
I believe the same colour as yourself. RAL 6018. I narrowed it down and finally it was between Racing Blue and this green and seeing yours really swung it for me. I really hope you take it as a compliment. Is RAL 6018 actually used on anything in particular?
Double post, (edited for some use)
Spec in brief is:
Fibreglass panels, polycarb windows and lightend shell, itb’d lump custom ally airbox and radiator, custom loom, dash2, recaro’s and scroths. Fully polybushed,
Let down will be the suspension but I need to get it rolling asap
Pretty sure I have posted in here before, but it was probably quite a long time ago.
On that basis I thought I'd best update with possibly a one off???
Project thread here if anyone cares/is interested
https://www.cliosport.net/threads/the-everlasting-ph1-itb-build.309982/page-100
UPDATE:
Page 100, thats escalated, and what do I have to show for it after 100 pages.... a shell, albeit a painted one, a very very GREEN one :up:
ALL GREEN EVERYTHING
Inside, outside, underside - everywhere.
Scratch the above, Cromwells wanted me to order a minimum of 20 of the finer pitch items which proper ramped up the price. But I did get them from Falcon supplies.
Just putting together an updated spreadsheet now - can post later
For anybody interested I have just found the finer pitch bolts on Cromwells.
I will shortly be amending my quote and ordering the bolts so can post those details up for others.
UPDATE:
Turns out you can only upload 10 images at a time. I will continue.
Next up for me was the doors, I new these were going to take some time so struggled to fit them in. Getting all the parts of them marked, trimmed or cut back went on and on and they were literally the last thing to be...
UPDATE:
To say I have had a manic few weeks is an understatement, working in London then commuting home I wasn't getting in til 7.30 and then trying to get jobs done to keep things progressing was a struggle. As mentioned above there was still a lot to do before paint was applied, but its done...
I haven't made the order yet chap, I need to add some more bolts to my list as I ideally want to change out my panel fitting bolts too, but I probably will order nuts too yes.
Ideally need this answered off @Tomotek though
You noted above about the calliper backing/top plate, but then have it...
Hi mate, you noted above about the calliper backing/top plate, but then have it on your list (QFT6001076J), did you just not use it?
Also just to check on this as they are blanked/n/a (in the Cromwell code field) did you reuse he below bolts or need to source them from elsewhere:
Front
Wishbone...
Hiya mate, looks like a great build, also looks like we are at very similar points of build (although yours has come through the process a lot quicker).
I am just about to hang my doors using the same method, I see you have captive nuts on the spreader plate inside the door,
Did you drill...
Yeah a fair bit to do, been heading down in the evenings after work and working on the fibreglass panels, the roof scoop is cut, the tailgate hung and the first aerocatch hole cut, back down there tonight and should have the other aerocatch fitted (so thats tailgate done), then move onto the...
