RE: Scottish Trueno rebuild
So the day after i was up the west coast my tyres arrived. I got them fitted to the compomotive RFX wheels. i went for the Yokohama Advan AD08R in 195/50 R15. these are one of thee best tyres i have ever used. dry grip is unreal, very little to no flex in the side wall and overall feed back is outstanding. really wish i got these in time for the west coast run but i now have every confidence in the car for Nurburgring. the wheels themselves do need a bloody good refurb and a coat of paint but that can wait for now.
but... I've now broken the car.... the passenger (Left) front wheel bearing seal burst putting all grease all over the front callipers, discs and pads. Ive clean everything up and replaced the seal but that was a bit of a pain....... ....but the biggest pain in the arse is the fuel tank. at some point up Applecross the fuel tank took a beating and has bust the seam welds near 3/4 away around the tank. don't know how it held fuel at all let alone for 4 days after after the run. anyway i have a new one on the way. here is a link to my other video >>>>>>> https://youtu.be/uz3RVUqIZIY |
