james Posted January 5, 2011 Share Posted January 5, 2011 hi man i am loven you project thrend GRATE READ!!! where did you get the kph clusters, out of what car i am very interested in getting one of them as its more practical and looks nicer and less over loaded with numbers love the steering wheel looks very tidy and the 200sx wheels are very nice toooh you should fit all new blue interior bulbs would look insane Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bepilot Posted January 5, 2011 Author Share Posted January 5, 2011 for the clusters... it's just from a left hand drive MB6/MC2 one, it was just to get rid off the mph-scale, for practicality reasons here on the EU-mainland - it was from a local guy who had breaken an MB6 to swap you-all-know-what into a Delsol. I think in the UK you have indeed two versions of the clusters, maybe try one from earlier model (I think to have read something over here)...You can try this alternatively, but you have to like it, not every one's taste...:http://moman.pl/en/index.php?a=opis&k=19&id=98Steering wheel 'looks' tidy, but was rather smallish honestly, I've changed with a Personal in 350mm form, a nice Ebay find for cheap, will post a picture when I think about it. Roughly a Grinta with blue stitch with a Tomei engraving in the leather... *forgot also to write that car is decatted now (emptied a spare broken OEM cat)*Next mod is the MG ZS ARB, after that it will be simple maintenance (at least, if I can keep that promise ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bepilot Posted January 29, 2011 Author Share Posted January 29, 2011 My MC2 taking a lot of abuse on the circuit de Bresse last weekend...omHNvWi4rso oFZWzNT3eOA Driving style being rather agressive shall we say... and despite the coilovers the stock sidewall 55 doesn't really help too... I'm still quite deceived by the turn-in of this car, steering is rather heavy-sluggish, I'm planning the MG ZS ARB, but I'm also tempted to test those "roll center adjusters" if these can help a little (must still check if EG ones are compatible...) - maybe it's a simple alignment issue after all...But from what I've read over here, this looks like a common complaint of this model ('caus our car is heavier than the rest?)My next to-do list:- fitting those energy-inserts in the motor-gearbox mounts, fast gearchanges are notchy sometimes...otherwise, the ATF gearbox oil still does the job superbly!- new discs and pads (really worn by now) on the front, caliper rebuild kit for the rear Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bepilot Posted January 31, 2011 Author Share Posted January 31, 2011 you unlock the lower collar and turn the collars holding the spring in place, like this the whole assembly turns to adjust height...MeisterR explains it quite well in his tutorial video:http://www.meisterr.com/Site/Tutorial.htmlit starts @ 03:09 for the ride height, hope this helps...
