Spacers now fit in the wheels thanks to daver6 taking a little bit off the wheel side of the spacer yesterday Thumbs up then it cost me £20 for spigot rings. £5each for a luttle round bit of plastic, WTF! was expecting to pay half that LOL

Also just bought a hybrid ARB, solid rear axle mounts and roller bearing wishbones off rat boy. Now just waiting on jeffers to get his new torsion bars so i can have his xsara ones then i can get my old astor GTi6 rear axle built up and fitted in the new year.
Also waiting on a price back from JJC for an oil cooler with 5/8 moquip lines and thermostatic plate off ebay

Car should have been going in for painting today but blokes decided do go away for 10days now so thats not going to happen Angry never mind. Going to fit the speedlines today i think and help jake sort a few bits and bobs with his 205 gti6


Wait until you receive the invoice for the spacers and machining of wheel spacers... £120 an hour you know Wink

Just been to the shops and my speedo has started playing up. Saying am doing 140mph when am only doing about 60mph! There are that many wires for the speedo i dont know whats what?

You can see here how much dave had to take off for the spacers to fit the wheels



Heres a quick one of my wheel on but no bolts in

oh right, I know the 406 used some kind of unit behind the dash but there's no need for it, you just add a switched live to the loom and use the 306 sensor and 3 pin plug instead of the 2 pin 406 one, far simpler and more reliable.
