5amchris 45 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 Bought a few things for the car, Didn't even need half of it, but for $1 why not. f**king someone else kept beating me up on the other indicator = (anyone have an orange left indicator? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Michael. 2313 Report post Posted November 19, 2014 Damn thats a lot of suspension travel! Hows it to drive now? It's a little unbelievable really, so flat, so crisp and direct. Today I took it for a drive through the Clevedon Scenic road and through to Maraietai, it was remarkable, I'd taken my E36 V8 with M3 suspension through those roads many times and I got the distinct impression the Soarer was doing a better job of it without the twitchiness or nervous feedback the E36 gave me Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Ahmedsinc 414 Report post Posted November 20, 2014 Found a bunch of fractures so turned it into a table Finally found a use for the old cast iron block that I've been tripping over in the shed for months. Quite a handy jig for making repairs to the set of twisties. Not in as bad a condition as I had initially thought, won't take much at ll to fix them up Finally found my missing bag of zorst studs and separated the copper nuts from the studs......... amazing how WD40 soaks into the skin and how long the aroma lasts for. 13 hours and counting 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
