Re: The Orange Cab -MD's New Racer
it is different but i like it
the colour combination works well i think,
what brakes have you got on it or plan? and will u be using individual mastercylinders and a balance bar?
and those extractors look very nice![Cool 8)](./images/smilies/icon_cool.gif)

Re: PICTURES-Different wheels for Alfa`s-Barry
yer i love simmons, great quality wheels! i would prefer 17" simmons but they cost a fair bit more,
mm painting the 17s matt black would have looked good and the cheaper option!
but they alredy have been sold

Re: PICTURES-Different wheels for Alfa`s-Barry
the wheels are simmons fr 16x7, i bought them to replace the black and chrome 17x7 wheels as they look too modern and cheap, the simmons will be painted gloss black, chrome bolts and polished outter rims ![Cool 8)](./images/smilies/icon_cool.gif)

Re: 4-cylinder turbo performance
some very good info.
if only we got the 1.8t in oz!
if i were to turbo a nord would the prefernce be a 1.8 or a 2.0?
also, would the "11mm lift, 290* seat, 245* @ 1.25mm or even a bit less will do for intake and the 10548... in the exhaust, could this be applied to a 2.0?
thanks, Brad

Re: The Orange Cab -MD's New Racer
wow that is serious torque to twist the shaft,
but surely with that much torque the wheels would have no traction and wouldnt be able to break the shaft like that?
anyway it looks cool haha.![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_biggrin.gif)
