Morton's white VQ Statesman

**azzfox** · 29-09-2009, 09:23 PM

lmao fair enough

**Morton** · 29-09-2009, 09:45 PM

Rebuilt/balanced tailshaft was fitted tonight - Hozy can testify, it's like driving a new car! It's incredible!

Gear changes are smoother, and the annoying clunk from the centre bearing when I don't rev-match exactly, is now gone. I'm SO happy

Also needs new tyres now... >_>

**savage1987** · 29-09-2009, 11:33 PM

OMG it's definitely time to change my 600,000km tailshaft!! I didn't know they could actually make a difference

**greenfoam** · 30-09-2009, 10:38 AM

I wonder how much of your life you have lost playing rev matcher :P. What wrong with a bit of of a surge between gear changes

??

**savage1987** · 30-09-2009, 10:17 PM

hmm, just a small note, I thought my diff was on its way out again.. had it on a hoist today for a look-see, turns out the failshaft is causing my phantom backlash... thanks Morton for a heads up on something to look out for

**Morton** · 03-10-2009, 01:18 AM

No worries Savage, it's not something many people ever touch in their car's lifetime.

Greenfoam, it's not lost time. I'm just a better driver for it now

And a bit pedantic... lol

New wheels go on the car tomorrow

I'm kinda excited!

**padrickz88** · 03-10-2009, 04:09 AM

New wheels? the one's in the previous post or different one's? :P should look sweet man lol

**Morton** · 03-10-2009, 01:26 PM

Here's the new wheels. They're still on a 4 week trial, so we'll see how they grow on me.

Pros: The VQ Caprice rims are more "sleeper", they make the car look almost dead stock and have the correct offset at the back - therefore wider track width

Cons: looks a bit less "tough" in a way than the VN Calais rims, have a lot of clearcoat peel and alloy oxidisation, and I'm missing one centrecap

**padrickz88** · 03-10-2009, 02:16 PM

I like them, very sleeper and stock........ i actually like them alooooooooooooot! keep em

**NEDWOB** · 03-10-2009, 03:10 PM

they look the goods on em. sleeper FTW

**rch-13z** · 03-10-2009, 03:27 PM

**matty88** · 03-10-2009, 04:57 PM

Love those wheels, better looking than Hozy's IMO

**hakhawk** · 03-10-2009, 05:31 PM

looks good bitch, damn hozys fat ass making us come home and check the bmw.

**Pub247** · 03-10-2009, 08:58 PM

wheels look good daniel find another center cap and polish the rims no more clearcoat or oxide problems

**VQ-Assault** · 03-10-2009, 10:29 PM

**levymetal** · 04-10-2009, 10:44 AM

i think you've found the best wheels so far

and what happened to your spotlights?

**HoZy** · 08-10-2009, 01:40 PM

Spotlights are relatively easy to remove with the right tools ^_^

Keep them on for epic long drives...

Cheers
