Lowered?

Posted 29th October 2010 at 20:09 by earthed5

Well its been a long long week. Iv been of work all week and the plan was to do a bit of work on the sax. First up was lowering the back end. Well the torsion bars where super tight. eventually after three days of wacking and a bolt snaped (after trying the pull method) we got it lowered 50mm. well we thought. it looked like this. Any weight in the car and it was scrapeing.



I was baffled after mesuring from the top of the hub- well where the wheel sits on, o the arch it measured 350mm. so we jacked the...

Its a real cold day and yesteday afternoon I came down with a cold but am going to start my work on the car. First thing lowering the torsion bars about 45m/50m-not decided yet.

No more Saxo

Posted 21st October 2010 at 10:59 by CHIP

Well, ain't updated this in a while. Basically the Saxo went a couple of week back and has been replaced by a ph2 Flame Red 172.
Wanted one for years. My first 2 car's were Clio's and i alway's looked up to the Sport's.

Got this one at a bargain price just need's a little tlc. But honestly for the price i go it at i really don't care!

Overall it's 10x the car the Saxo was regard's a daily driver. More comfortable, better built, better engine, handle's extremely well in standard guise.
It's just a pleasure to drive tbh.

Couple of day's...

The Chemical guys Maxi Suds II plus the Meguires wash mit made nice light work of the washing, the mit just glides over the car and the snow foaming managed to get all the bedded in crap off.

I was well impressed with the results of just washing the car with this method and some decent kit!
