Not done much recently. Just knew wishbone. And stabiliser links as had play in ball joint and links were perished. Feels much better, although its thrown the tracking out which will need sorting.

My brother has taken my centre caps to college to be proper sprayed. Hopefully they have turned out good. Will upload pics :)

Im on a months countdown til the dreaded MOT expires. In the last week i have replaced the wishbone and track rod ends.
I still need to send wheels off to be banded and tyres.
Next week ill be getting a stock manifold to replace the janspeed.
Will also have to change over my backbox
I have a hole in my sill, i have taken it to be looked at and the guy has quoted my £20 << result! The down side to his welding is that he gas welds and has warned me of the bodywork rippling due to the heat.
Other than that, that should be it for my first mot for the super s.

The week after mot expires im going to a car show, so will have to swap everything back over again, including my matiz suspension, rear suspension and rolling the arches.

So a month and counting til it will be low and have 12months mot! :)

Some news today at my new job. My work mate does banger racing and replaces engines etc in a blink of an eye as a hobby. Him seeing my micra said "oohh I've done a primera conversion to a micra" :D found out his brother owns it and is sat in his yard cut in half doing sweet fa with the 2ltr engine in, complete with custom driveshafts etc... will have to see what will happen

I don't think they'll get enough light to work that well for long imo, as it slowly gets dark at night they'll lose their glow. I've tried glow in the dark paints and inks before and I was unipressed each time. I've never seen it on a car before though. If it does work well it would be good, and you won't know 'till you try it, so I say go for it.

It can only try see what the outcome is, the paint is not expensive. The down side is that you cannot laquer them as the sun wont penetrate the paint.

cheers guys. 7.5" front 8.5" rear. got poke tho :D http://www.alonzecustom.co.uk/ i'd really recommend this guy, based in north yorkshire, got my wheels back in a week of sending them. The wheels are faultless, just need to spray them now. Also remebering to spray over the welds with etch primer to prevent rust. I payed £225, sent my steels off £50 per wheel any width any size, this includes leak test, £25 to send wheels back. The also do sand blasting and maybe primer!

You can go as wide as you'd like. Standard steel width is 5.5". A member on here has gone 8.5 and 9" :eek:

I dont think 6.5" would be much difference.Youll be gaining an inch (wont have much dish)


7.5 and 8.5 would be good, but will more than likely need arch rolling if lowering. Anything above these you'd need arch rolling, negative camber etc to fit in the arch. Ps You would need stretch tyres for bandeds ohterwise tyre tread would outside and police wont like you lol :D
 
true what about 7.5 on front and 8 on back sound i bit better now i know what thay are now thanks for the help i stop takeing over your blog now anyway looking good keep up the work :)
