Kaleverada Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 And this is the roll bar setup, think it’s either 16 or 18mm, it’s skinny but going from nothing to something will always make a difference! Was a bit of a nightmare to find all the separate bits to have the full kit. The bar itself I managed to get extremely lucky with and buy from a Rover site as old back stock for dirt cheap. The L brackets I found on Facebook marketplace, some guy had two sets, had them both powder coated and only needed one set. And the links and bushes were an eBay job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaleverada Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 Gave the 282’s a little bit of a clean up and paint now they’re ready too! Got very lucky finding them for 40 quid! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleverada Posted March 26 Author Share Posted March 26 And this is the new shifter setup also, would recommend this over the ktuned style ones or oem bent ones any day! Super notchy shifts, makes everything nice and tight again, adjustable everywhere apart from height but sits perfectly where it is for me. Plus, all the original trim fits back over it nicely too 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Posted April 3 Share Posted April 3 Glad you got the blow sorted, a chisel and the big bangy-hitty thing can solve many, many problems! System looks Tidy mate, liking that. Need to do a wee video of how it sounds when you get a chance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleverada Posted April 11 Author Share Posted April 11 Managed to be productive again after working 12 hours over nights, finding the time is getting harder and harder at the moment, so I offset this by buying a s**t ton of parts then letting them stack up until I can’t bare it and am forced to actually fit them. Seems to be working quite well at the moment! Managed to get the 282 calipers fitted with the RPB discs and pads. Completely forgot about the 1 inch master and booster so brake pedal feeling is pretty bad but they certainly feel to have a lot more stopping power that’s for sure! Got underseat sub wired in and rear speakers changed, bought 4 inch rears and they were 5 inch originally so made some adapters to fit them. Sound is actually really good now, fully recommend the sub to anyone! Then finally got round to wrapping all the beige interior plastics in a dark alcantara, turns out I’m actually quite good at it, who knew. Usually I’d lose my rag and end up throwing something but managed to make a decent job of it, also wrapped the front fog covers in a crushed carbon wrap but didn’t get a photo of that as of yet. Got a tegiwa universal harness bar second hand and fitted that as I’ve got some low max glitter backs to fit soon too. I’ll update with some photos shortly!

Kaleverada Posted April 11 Author Share Posted April 11 Bay shot because why not. Changed whale d**k out to actual carbon fibre one, and changed rocker cover to a fake Mugen one. Looking a lot tidier under there now! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaleverada Posted April 11 Author Share Posted April 11 Got rid of the old quick release and fitted a much sturdier hub with a spacer 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
