It feels like a race car....

Keep up Pedro

Nice sound Very nice indeed.

Now that I look closely at your SSR's, they look a bit inside the arches, what's the ET of those?

Spacers maybe?

[Rasteirinho]

Yep, i'm thinking in fitting some spacers, but only after finishing the rebuild.

I need to measure exactly how much space i have before rubbing the tires on the arches...

I don't plan to modify anything on the arches...

The engine is (for now) only working with the exhaust headers, no mufflers yet

I was looking at the photo with your interior.

Looking from the front seats towards the back. Does your trunk goes downwards? Mine has a little inclination from the rear domes towards the the lights.

I was checking the photos and I should advise you that you might get MOT failure due to not having the rear windscreen wiper installed. Mine got failure due to that...

Another thing I noticed is that you installed the rubber band that is installed in the engine compartiment (the big one, just above the VIN plate on the firewall). You might get cooler engine temperatures removing that rubber.

He doenst have the wiper neither the washer, so i dont think he would experience any problem. The problem is, if you have the washer you need the wiper... dont know if it was your case.

LOL, its Portugal my friends, who cares about MOT???

20€ in the ashtray will do the trick.
Since I ain't got no ashtray in my hachi, I bribe the guy directly.
