Update, well kind of.... more like an ‘ooh it’s looking good, get a snap’ picture update as if I’m honest I’ve not had much else to photo on it yet and not much work has been carried out since the last update.
Actually tell a lie, the boot solenoid, stereo and 12V stopped working... simple fuse job (Number #11, 20A fuse to be precise) took all of 30 seconds to fix and if I’m honest I think a dodgy Chinese phone charger may have been the cause, my fault! Anyway, heres a few pictures of kinky Trev during a play date with a German fraulein!

That's a distinctive looking nature's hump in the distance and I'm not talking about kinky Trev's dairy ass
Looking Craig but you're letting the side down by not photographicaly documenting the fuse change over

WOW, bit of a change but have to say, impressive penis extension Craig!
I had a shot of a Tuscan a few years ago, Christ thinking about it a good few years ago now, I had my first E36 M3 at the time, anyway.... I had a shot of one and boy it was an event. The noise, the torque and the sheer lack of grip made it very interesting. And it on a nice dry day too. Some craic though, could be very good fun but think it would get tiresome. Good luck Craig, |

Did you have a play with the cayman in the tiv, I would have thought it would be very tricky to keep up with the porker on anything other than straight road in the tiv,

Small update, more on my thoughts rather than physical progress; I’ve been pondering over the handling of this car its chassis has huge potential but as it stands there’s a few things amiss. As the weather hasn’t been ideal I’ve done more reading than driving and have come to the conclusion the car is going to need a few things to get it to handle as I want it too.
First up, bump steer as it stands the car is a little un-easy on bumpy B-roads so going to take a look at this and if needs be I’ll space (or move) the steering rack accordingly to try and minimise the amount of bump steer the car has, this should help on the rough country roads. Next is the spring rates, its currently running 400F/325R I’m thinking of running the front springs on the back and ordering a set of 450’s for the fronts, this will give me 450F/400R and is one set up change that has been advised and after a few minutes of research seems that is actually used by a few T350 owners. Once all this is done, I can play around more trying to find the ideal damping set-up for my needs, also further tweaks will be made to the rear anti-roll bar if needs be too, I’ve been given the heads up the ideal modification for this too. On a different note; Silver or Anthracite? I’ve started to add my own little personal touches to the car but can’t decide whether to leave the wheel colour be or change it.

Best make them SG since we all know SG is faster!
