JamieP Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 no he's still working away in the garage, while the car is up on the ramp he is trying to get a better fit from the down pipe and exhaust. Nice one, with bit of luck and he will sort it out, save the car going to the exhaust specialists:) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee P Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Clutch all done ... but no joy with the exhaust Still sits against the floor. It will have to be sorted on thursday Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted August 19, 2008 Author Share Posted August 19, 2008 Oh well no worries, whats the clutch feel like mate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lee P Posted August 19, 2008 Share Posted August 19, 2008 Bit stiffer but drives like stock . The bite point is lower. When its on the ramp again I am going to flush the old fluid out and replace with new also. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Supra-Brett Posted August 20, 2008 Share Posted August 20, 2008 Those brakes are indeed a work of art and at £3200 quite cheap considering most art is hundreds of thousands and does sod all apart from sit on the wall. You got a bargain The car is looking very nice, but i will stick to eating my dinner off my plate rather than from the underside of your car thanks. Please please please take me for a spin in it at Reading jap meet when its completed. I was only talking to Daryl last night about how ive never even been in a TT, never mind a well prepared single.

JamieP Posted August 21, 2008 Author Share Posted August 21, 2008 Its an easy fit, bride runners just bolt straight on them. Just a note for anyone thats thinking of going with the evo seats its not as simply as just bolting on the bride runners, the holes that mount them on the seat dont line up and need re drilling;) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EdMorris Posted August 21, 2008 Share Posted August 21, 2008 The runners mount up to the car though, right? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted August 21, 2008 Author Share Posted August 21, 2008 Yup, its just where they bolt to the seat needs modding. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
