yer you can spot the odd rust patches and scratches but all in all its still a decent motor , hardly a shed unlike loads that are on the roads . so whats your plans for the sports ?

i,ll do a sort of list of things to do

1. Brakes they pull to the passenger side
2. Wheels but cant decide what sort yet got the ones in the pic on it at the mo
3. Suspension had 60 front 40 rear but kept hitting speed bumps so took it of and it sits on the twist suspension at the mo looks like an offroader lol
4. Bodywork bit scabby needs a new door and bonnet plus tidying

not to sure what else yet but thats enough for a start just need money.

was bored today so had a play about with rear camber. need to drop the sport but the wheels rub real bad on the arch. so tried some rear camber on the twist to see how it looked.

before

after

Image

the wheels fit no rub
Image

what i used to adjust the camber
Image

what the wheels look like on the sport

just need to get some front camber bolts now then lower it 60/40
