Lookin good dude!!!
They might not like the black tape round the front indicator stems.
Got some split convoluted tube, wiil put that on.
A couple of observations
Are the button head bolts fixing the lower ball joints high tensile, they look like stainless steel in the pics.
Is the clamp fastener on the exhaust OK, no sharp edges etc.
Otherwise looks very nice
Hey, nice car...
Can you please tell me where you got those seats from and the bodykit???
Its an MK kit, so MK seats, good bunch of lads.
YES bolts are A4 stainless steel. Do they need to be HT bolts(8.8's) .
At least 8.8 !!!
Looking very good. Nice rims, what size and offset??
Cheers,
Arjan
Lookin nice dood... have you checked the height of your harness attachments, from the picture they look kinda low?
Cheers John
ps.... the tip of your gearstick could possibly fail?
[Edited on 4/6/05 by Hornet]
Seat belt etc are from MK so would think thats fine.
Wheels are wolf race 17" with 38mm et.
might need something around the front brake flexi hoses,we used spiral wrap....

Why is that mate. They look ok to me no sharp edges
The braide is slightly abrasive. If you ran someone over, you could give them a nasty graze.
If i ran someone over they would have more than a graze i think. But on a serious note will get some overbrade from bike shop.
And got some 8.8 bolts today for front of car.
welderman... its not your seats or harnesses im talking about.... its the gauge that the examiner fits on your seat, he lines up the bubbles on the
levels and strikes a cord line back to your harness anchor points. I am wondering if your anchor points are too low for this test?
Have you measured them in relation to the SVA manual info?
Cheers John

No sorry mate, do you know what this measurement is so i can check it out.
Seats are on runners and they are very very close to floor of car. So no way my seats will go down any more.
Have you measured them in relation to the SVA manual info?
Cheers John
u not got messenger?
Ok here goes..
You will need a piece of wood or something 1360 x 53 mm. you need to sit it on your seat. Have a spirit level on the same plane as your anchor
points... and the distence between the spirit level and the block of wood needs to be a minimum 450mm.
Cheers john
Think ive got that. will have a measure up later on.
Thanks.
17" with a offset of 37. Tire size??
I can't make up my mind, 15" or 17" ...

im sure that if you pull the top harness straps out straight its not aloud to touch any part of the seat
Here's the seat belt anchor point diagram

So if my seat is curved then.
Actual measure from bottom of seat to harness is 540mm but with wood may be smaller gap?
215/40/17 !! How did you make it fit??
