06 nimbus 197 daily track toy

[Cliosport-carl]

Right took the car for a little drive today esp light was on as it was so on the cock but it's now straight and even given it a quick clean.

Also got the tracking information..

Before as you can see I had the wheels pointing in different directions..



And I got him just to set it to standard well ish with over 3° negative camber..

How does it drive? Have u shimmed the rear? Have u not thought about sorting the rear toe?

 

[suj]

Carl isn't your front camber off massively? As that's 3 degrees and 3 minutes (3.05degrees) on left and 3 degrees and 51 minutes (3.85degrees) on the right?
That's quite a difference on the front (48 minutes)

Tbf I wanted to get it straight more than anything I will be looking to get a proper set up when all this is over.

How do you find it with those PMS top mounts? Does it drive better than on the old Compbrakes?

Yeah mega it was more the knocking and the shit baring they used which did my head in in fact I need to clean them up and get them for sale lol.. but the added caster made a nice difference.

That's good.

I found my old ones made the car really crashy?

And yeah the bearing was terrible. Mine failed after a month. And about 2-300 miles! [emoji2359]

Sorry that was wrong of me to say that they are good but the PMS ones are better bigger baring and just tougher made.

I wasn't happy with the tracking as my steering wheel wasnt straight so I took it back to them and he has straightened it out bit also it has got all my other alignments close.. amazing what straiginting the car on the rack does..

Before.


After.


And now my steering wheel is straight.

Got some brake calipers on order wasnt expecting them until the weekend and they are here got some new non gen ones come with a warranty should be ok going to test fit them tomorrow then throw some blue on them at some point and get a full fluid flush with some rbf600..

I couldn't possibly say.... but you'll see it here first...

 

[Cliosport-carl]

Almost ready for the new calipers and motul 600 will be getting it all in over the weekend..

 

[Cliosport-carl]

Right after 2 attempts I've finally sorted it had to bleed it twice for it to work properly but now it feels fantastic..

 

[Cliosport-carl]

Got it all cleaned up the other day as I'm back at work now and Jesus it's busy..

Also I still can't get over the camber on the front it looks mad and to think the cup cars had much more must have looked epic sadly none of my picture do it justice

 

[Cliosport-carl]

Who's up for a bit of a laugh...

Because I havent net had chance to play with my go pros properly I decided during lockdown I'd got a good cleaning video but shit went sideways and now I'm back to work but decided to get my speilberg on over the weekend and looks out for the bonus content..

I have done this for a laugh and I wanted to mess around with music and angles time laps and some silly stuff so enjoy and comment away..
