Good call on the momo wheel. They feel great.

They really do
Makes the driving experience more pleasurable





Also I should thank Nick for helping me with the install of the wheel, made it much easier cause I knew what modify to make it work

Looking good Rob on all counts bar the hairy legs.  
 
I just bought the same steering wheel.

Legs ready for summer


Good one, least it's a straight swap over for your car. Simples

Good stuff, bro!

Where are you getting the alignment done?
I know a bloke in WoyWoy. I'm getting one done mid week and I'm going to hit him up for a club discount..
50 for a 4 wheel alignment for Subyclub members.

Nice bloke & knows his shit, old school. Only does alignments.

In fact, a lot of workshops & tyre shops around here send their work to him.



Can't wait to see the pics..... Phone is killing me.

Cheers!


I went to heasmans Last time and I'll probably go back cause I'm
Interested to see if they can do like the corner weighting and shit


$50 bucks is a really good price for a 4 wheel alignment,
I paid $120 last time

About time you put that seal in the exhaust !

Haha yeah, sounds so much better


I can hear some noise from the front still but I think it's just normal

[Robert]

Coming along nicely. I like the ride height.

Cheers man!

I don't

Going to #yolo #sweg lower it a bit more





Also sorry about multiple posts

This took forever on my phone

I only bought it for the black momo centre which I prefer over my silver one and the plastic trim. Sell the wheel itself with my silver badge airbag.

Looking really good Rob!

I just caught up on your thread this morning.

[Robert]

Cheers guys


Bit of a driveline update
The car is getting a bit on at 250,000 and gearbox at well over 350,000 so I decided to refresh everything so it's running mint up until I convert

Engine burns and Leaks a decent amount of oil
And the has typical 2.2 dak dak

The gearbox is noisy and crunchy in most gears and leaks a bit itself


So I've sourced a ej22 motor out of a 96 model which appears to be the model when they got rid of the hla's so I'm able to adjust valve clearances now
Only 111,000 km's on this motor, bit dirty on the outside but seems mint on the inside







Would like to thank Matt for the gearbox and all the other goodies I've got of him

4.44 v4 sti gearbox,
Diff
Shafts
Clutch
Fidenza flywheel
Master and Slave for clutch
Hydraulic wrx pedal box
And probably other heaps of good stuff just can't remember



Everything will be getting a good clean up and paint where needed, will replace most of the external oil seals on motor, gearbox and diff

Also got a kartboy pitch mount off Cliffo for a steal

And that's about it for now
Probably won't get a change to install it till the new year but gives me time to prepare everything


I originally intended to build a hybrid motor 2.5 block and 2.2 heads but had some issues with the config, this motor will be way more reliable than any hybrid build anyway

Goes strong

Just noisy and smoky

Gotta love the 22 dak noises. Thankfully my 25 is nice and quiet.

Drive line should be sweet for a 207 when the time comes

[Robert]

Will a 4 bolt box bolt up to a 207?

If so I'll decide at the time

Would love a dccd 6 speed

[Reevesy]

It sure will

4 bolts means less doing and undoing to get it in and out

[Robert]

Awesome

I knew it could be done the other way round but wasn't sure about this way

[Robert]

Thanks heaps

Good to know the help is available, it's a lot of work swapping a whole drive train out haha

[Harry88]

That's some low k's for a 96!!

[Robert]

I know right

It's auto too
So I'm hoping its some granny that's babied it around, should be a good runner

[aekOne]

4.44 FTW!! Will this be ready for hooters tomorrow?
