    In the Post Came E20 + delivery for the lot And i fit the new momo suede drift steering wheel aswell taday I picked it up yesterday at japfest (ireland) and got a boss aswell Problem is the boss was for the none airbag models so the down side is i have to turn off the indicators manually and i still have to find out how to connect up the horn button so this wheel is good not everything i wanted as i would have prefered a smaller diameter its either 350/330 mm i dont know i think a 300 mm in a dish would feel best, i like thing heavy i feel more envolved that way It looks the dogs balls and i might sell it in the future and get what i totally want, the feel is good chunky but minimal cushioning its gripy with the suede but the horn and fixing ring feel as cheap as the plastic cheap stuff is wraped in to do list: [*:2sweb2ry]spark plug leads [*:2sweb2ry]spark plugs [*:2sweb2ry]fuel filter [*:2sweb2ry]Gear shift upper & lower boots [*:2sweb2ry]clean throttle body [*:2sweb2ry]connect horn button [*:2sweb2ry]sort out more lumbar support [*:2sweb2ry]get exhaust leak fixed [*:2sweb2ry]front brake pads (ebc green stuff) [*:2sweb2ry]polish & wax

    Yep thats right big difference now in the foot brake and hand brake very happy with the put come, this car STOPS the brake are not big but the stoping power is way better than my old mb6 i was going to clean the throttle body but it turns out not any old carb cleaner can be used there is a coating on the butter fly that if removed will effect the idle so it has to be throttle body cleaner as its less aggressive looking forward to this job as it it dirty black in there
