Domster's Posi blue furio y0!

[Domster]

Hi there, im new on this club as ive moved from zsoc a fiesta zetec s club to a saxo club!

Now lets get to basics:

I went out last week car hunting and i saw a nice furio going for £500, its a x reg (2000)

Plans for the car are:

VTS wheels Done
VTR/S full interior Done
VTS engine
Coilovers
Full exhaust
Tinted windows

Now i havnt got any pictures uploaded yet but i will do in the next couple days, its in the garage at the moment having some work done, so once its back ill get the pictures rolling in!

if anyone else knows any good mods? please let me know as ill be updating this regularly now as this will be my VTS project! thank you :)

Fellow Posi Furio! :) Check out my thread for a few ideas if you want.
I'd advise on getting some spacers at least for the rear wheels, as on a furio the rear wheels sit roughly 10mm further into the arches than on a VTR/S. :)

[Domster]

Hi mate ok I'll look into them have you got them? Do you know where from and how much? Vie got some vts wheels I'm fitting when my car is back so could do that all in one go! :) I'll check your out now matey

[JoshFurioBrookes]

I've got 25mm ones, not using them atm, I will in about a week when I get my VTS wheels on. :) You can get the type that bolt onto the hub, then you bolt your wheel to spacer, or some with extended bolts. I'll be using 15mm on the fronts, and 25mm on the rears when I have my VTS wheels on. But just 15mm on the back would probably be fine for filling the arches abit more.

[Domster]

Sounds good mate think I'll have to do that! Do you know where tonged themnfrom though?

[JoshFurioBrookes]

Ebay :) Make sure they are hubcentric ones.

[Domster]

Ok mate I'll have to look at them at the beginning of next month when I get payed! Getting a catback I think I'm going Ashley exhaust too that's all next month.

[Domster]

right next week im ordering a exhaust catback of some sort! anyone got any ideas which one to get? i get payed next week and want some growl! also wanting a induction kit anyone got any ideas whats the best one to get?

i know k&n and pipercross, but is there anything better?

[Domster]

Small update before i get pictures up, turned out that the car i bought was passed for mot when it shouldnt have!

went to my garage to give it a good check over, passenger seat was missing two bolts from the frame, new driveshafts needed, new leg and arm! and two new ball joints. now this all brand new is costing £600 i got onto the phone to the mot garage that passed it and i asked them why, they were trying to say it was fine when they had it. now i could get trading standards involved and he then decided hes going to pay to get my car road legal. had cheque come through today and hopefully come tomorrow my car should be back! parts arrived today and are being fitted as we speak.

[Simon0014]

Thats bad news mate but glad you've got it sorted with them now with the cheque!

[Domster]

yeah i was not happy when my garage told me the news of what wasnt done! i was furious i was driving it a week previous to buying it so i could have had a accident! at least its getting sorted now

[Domster]

Well bit of a s**t update but thursday my part arrived that i needed but was the wrong size again! so once the car is out of the garage on monday or tuesday ill get pictures up!

not the best pictures i know but thats it for now untill i get the pictures up with vts wheels!

[JoshFurioBrookes]

Lose the sunstrip, looks abit tacky, and you have sun visors so its not needed ;)

[Domster]

yeah i am a bit unsure on that haha! i need a new aerial pod as the aerial is snapped inside the holder. not sure what i can do. plus it needs a clean and i need to get pics with vts wheels on haha those steelies arnt doing it any justice!

[JoshFurioBrookes]

Buy a aerial bung thing like I have, and just get rid of the aerial completely. You can buy them direct from citroen. :)

[Domster]

oh haha, so you dont have radio at all? is it easy to remove?

[Baz]

Radio still works fine without the aerial tbh

[Domster]

i havnt got a headunit at the moment as i need to sort the wiring out someone before has bodged it using the crimps!

[bobertmate]
