My MB6 build

Little update - Picking up ATR front and rear seats on the weekend which will hopefully be fitted to the MB specific Recaro rails that Blames Vti had. Also not 100% sure how to make the rears fit as the ATR had no arm-rest but I'm 99.99% sure I've seen someone with one on. Hopefully it should be bolt on, bolt off. Then going to a breakers whose holding a whole bunch of stuff for me including the ZS 180 ARB and the Tegiwa Whale p***s intake.

 

On a more negative note, the car is feeling very rough at the min. Put £10 worth of petrol in yesterday morning and 25 miles later it was empty. I took it to my mechanic today who reckons the rear passengers side brakes have binded and reckons the o2 sensor and leads need to be changed so I basically said sack it I'll do a bit more maintenance and make sure it runs properly. Got Magnecor KV85s, NGK o2 seonsor, OEM Honda timing belt and tensioner, Gates auxiliary belts and an NKK clutch kit.

 

Quick question, is the Fidanza 3.5kg flywheel a worthwhile upgrade whilst the clutch is being changed? I don't really know what a light weight flywheel does apart from make it rev a bit quicker? Heard it can make it a bit harder to drive?

 

Suspension parts will be fitted on the weekend as well and then I'll make sure I throw some pictures up as I know  [postpics.gif]

 

Oh yeah, if anyone knows someone whose selling the Momo DC2 wheel, please let me know :)

I have a DC2 wheel to get rid of, it's the SRS one with the airbag. :)

 

Should run better with that lot for sure! Binding brakes can be a mare!

So, finally got everything on order and should all arrive some time this week. Also got an ATR spoiler on the way which will hopefully finish the back off when it gets dropped. Got a new CD player today as well, Xtrons Unit with a single din screen and most importantly, bluetooth which means I don't have to keep ugly Aux wires anymore :)

 

This beast arrived today as well 10595820_10152870325903473_223847313_n.j

 

The filter is freaking huge compared to what I have now :o
