Hi,

I only need to sort tracking and camber alignment.

Hi everybody,

as I set here are some pics from the latest upgrades.

I have spent 2days with my fried working on new Cluch (as u can see on the pics...was bad), repairing leaking Gearbox (also proper cleaning) and fitting new Weitec Hicon GT coilovers.

Everything has been done and sorted out. I had my Wheels alignment and Camber sorted today (the ride before on the new coils was craazy baaad and mad, u can see also the result of it)

but now it's sweeet :)

I lowered the car 60mm front and 70mm rear (I can't go lower because of my tyres and I need the car daily :) but who nows...may be I go lower later.

Hop you like the job I have done on the car and thanks for your comments.
