Good work dude. Manual conversion should be next on the list (or manual + V8)

[vpcalais6]

I had all intentions on a manual conversion but my brother inlaw told me the manulised auto would be better I so wish I went the manual conversion Now. I'll swap you mate I'm in love with your car

[vpcalais6]

Stealthy what springs do you have in the back of yours

[TVR-190]

LOL, shouldn't have listened to him. Auto is only good for fast strip times, manual is better for everything else.

Springs are custom height, so cant tell you what they are.

[vpcalais6]

Oh ok then and I just put ultra lows in mine but I havnt taken any pics with them in yet

[vpcalais6]

i spent the week end trying to fix this


idle


and it wouldnt rev past 2500rpm
sounded like it was hitting the limiter



so i repaced:

fuel pump
fuel filter
spark plugs
spark plugs leads
oil filter
oil
air filter

it runs great now but im not sure how long for because it only plays up some times i hope i fixed it tho

Down near coles mate and I don't drive it that much because I'm working all the time
and it's kept in the garage most of the time

I reckon black rims would look sick on ur car but I think u would have to pain the bumpers or it would just blend in

[ducker85]

I never camber kitted mine and never had to many trouble, the camber on my VT is alot worst then my VP's ever were

ive done about 3000km on these tyres with the ultra lows and i need new ones how long where yor tyres lasting you

[ducker85]

ive done about 3000km on these tyres with the ultra lows and i need new ones how long where yor tyres lasting you

I'd flip them after 6 months and probly got 10,000km out of them over about 12months mate, thought that was ok but never gave it sh*t either

[vpcalais6]

I think the mini spool would play a big part in my tyre wear but I don't mind buying 2 new back tyres every month or two

[Adds_05]

shit id be spewin if i only got 3000kms out of a set of tyres lol
