Title: fc closer to cruising Post by: groover on May 11, 2013, 12:18:57 AM My old girl is off to getting wheel alignment next week after dropping it 2", also getting handbrake connected up then off to Goodtones exhaust to get extractors and 2" system fitted up. Then back home for tweeking up bits and bobs. I can almost taste the open road its so close, aiming for August rego due to other cars rego at start of yr. Just finished door rubbers, what a pain.

Title: Re: fc closer to cruising Post by: JOX515 on May 15, 2013, 07:10:28 PM Looking good, groover. Are the colours a standard FC combination?
Title: Re: fc closer to cruising Post by: FCV08 on May 15, 2013, 10:06:07 PM Great stuff Groover.
Hows it run with the 14inch wheels? Title: Re: fc closer to cruising Post by: groover on May 16, 2013, 10:21:05 AM Yeh colours are standard combo, i bought this unfinished so still scraping around for bit and pieces and fixing up previous owners mistakes. Paint still needs cut and re buff as not finished properly. 14 inch wheels im not sure yet as i only just done them, they are HT 5.5 and have been reversed. They should run good on her, my last FC had 15x6 neales wheels and was a totalydifferent car to drive than the 13x7s that were on it. Should get her back friday i hope and will let you know how 14s went.
Title: Re: fc closer to cruising Post by: pedro on May 16, 2013, 01:42:44 PM Nice car groover, the grey looks smooth 8), the 14" wheels give a much better ride, with the lower profile tyres they are almost the same size as the 13" with the original cheesecutter tyres so the gearing is better and they don't fall into potholes like 13"s with low profile tyres.
Pedro Title: Re: fc closer to cruising Post by: groover on May 27, 2013, 08:08:10 PM Drove it home saturday, no rattles, glides along on 14s, suspention nice and tight and corners great, extractors and 2" make her sound like she should, only issue is steering box as it has some slack. My old FC use to have an EH steering colum and was thinking of doing the same on this .
