i popped out early so thought id take a picture and decided im bored of my smoked front lights and the mrs liked them so i swopped them over with hers, i also sorted the carpet inside as it had lifted away by the passenger footwell near the door (no pics) and painted my strut brace yellow last weekend but forger to put some pics up.

pics:






it was my birthday wednesday so since my front tyres had started to get low and im going on track at fcs i thought i might aswell get some new rubber, so i ordered another set of falken ze912's wednesday night from camskill and they came first thing friday morning so popped out on my dinner to get them fitted:

Looking good as ever dan.

[bobertmate]

vts wheels ftw.

[RyanStevo]

Very clean example,

[dan-sport]

cheers for all the nice comments people .

well i know its abit late but i've finally had a free 5 minutes to update it so heres my fcs update, had a cracking day tbh my first experience on track and it certainly wont be my last. I also popped on the rolling road and made a a hole 96bhp which tbh im happy with as the engines only got light mods and is very healthy so its the perfect base for future tuning. i stole a few pictures from the company who took the pics on track.

anyways less talking more pictures:

5 hour cleaning session on saturday 16th at my work as it was raining.
wash, dry, clay, polish, wax, glass cleaned inside and out trim blacked up and wheels cleaned inside and out clayed, polished and wax'd














and my favourite pic:



rolling road vid:



then me and gojka parked on some grass and i took some pics:







one of gojka's

heres my rolling road result from fcs not 100% on how accurate is it as they did it in 3rd gear and i've been told your always ment to do it in 4th but im happy non the less as it shows its a nice healthy 90bhp engine that pulls right the the end.



then i had a small leak in the car which i traced back to the aireal so i got a new one from citroen for a wopping £5.89




no pics fitted as we all know what it looks like, went for a drive today and the mrs wanted to show me where she wants to get married (she's not pushy were actually engaged haha) anyway as i was leaving i thought with all this nice land it would be rude not to take a few nice pictures on the way out so please excuse the dirty car and the crap iphone pics cheers dan






my personal favourite:

[dan-sport]

Well i finally got my arse into gear and fitted my vts box, my clutch had started slipping aswell so i went and got a valeo clutch kit.

Valeo clutch:


S box:


No pictures done but its alot smoother an just seems more responsive. Bit of noise coming from 1st and 2nd but its coming an going so ill wait an see as the box has been bone dry for 8ish months. Took a few pics aswell.

Pics:

Looks great man

[bmxbannanas]

smart pal

[vtcarl]

Bout time that box was fitted. Looking good mate, need to see how it goes with that box on.

[dan-sport]

Small update:

Found out the vts box wasnt a vts box it was a diesel box but it was buggered anyway, but gojka off here had a spare real vts box but we didnt know the condition as it was untested.

Im happy to say its all working perfectly and the cars alot faster, ive deff lost abit of speed but acceleration is perfect.

[dan-sport]

Well i finally got myself a nice new battery £100 down to £60 with the amazing halfrauds trade card



Also finally fitted my hids while i did the battery so quite happy with the out come as ive been putting off since my mot.

[dan-sport]

Finally gave it a good clean today.











Enjoy, its so much better to drive with the vts box on.

[logic_guy]

How are you finding it with the S box?

I've got one on my VTR and if I'm honest, it pulls allot quicker. I've proved this at the last meet I went too and gave it some beans with DreamEater. I was pulling a good car lenght ahead.

Gear 4 is a great gear for over taking on motorways

[dan-sport]

im loving it tbh mate its a massive improvement over the r box, only downside is im constantly changing gear when driving normally. only car i've had a play with is a porsche boxster which i was pushing up to lets just say i couldn't go anymore.

it just seems to pull right round in EVERY gear lol only thing that seems to stop the acceleration is the rev limiter lol

[dan-sport]

Ive started getting bonus at work so thought id spend alittle on the car, so i got straight on the kamracing website an 2 days later this arrived.



Which contained these, all i can say is these work so well with the quickshift.



Old ones



Fitted


Such a worth while mod, going to get a new wishbone sat as ive got a nocking balljoint.
