Author: BrEvY, Location: WiganPosted: Tue Mar 09, 2010 2:35 pm ---- ill get some better pics, the back is lower than the front and i dont think it looks right.. one of the trailing arms also twists aswell causeing it to rub so its all gona have to be replaced.. im gona try and get the height equal when i rebuild it all

#12: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: b47t0n, Location: sheffieldPosted: Wed Mar 17, 2010 1:47 pm ---- so how low are spax spring going to make it ?
#13: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: BrEvY, Location: WiganPosted: Wed Mar 17, 2010 2:21 pm ---- The spax is 40mm mate, its already lowered but not a clue how much.. im changing it all because the back axle is shot and also the two front struts are leaking oil.
#14: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: wagsy206, Location: Coatbridge, LanarkshirePosted: Wed Mar 17, 2010 4:29 pm ---- looks good man. the GT's are nice. but thats stunning. i dont think it looks bad at that height. but again, if the axles shot and the struts are gone then it might be best to raise it a little, lol.
#15: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: BrEvY, Location: WiganPosted: Wed Mar 17, 2010 4:50 pm ---- cheers mate, im happy with the height on the front as it stands, hopefuly the height on the front wont change to much with the spax.. the backs a little to low, cant really see on those pics to be honest.. ill adjust it when ive fitted the new beam etc to match the spax..
How you getting on?, Did you get that grill mate?

#27: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: Lecktorious, Location: ScotlandPosted: Sat Apr 03, 2010 12:27 pm ---- I preferred the Phase 1 bootstrip tbh.

#34: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: BrEvY, Location: WiganPosted: Thu Apr 22, 2010 1:34 pm ---- Cars all back together now, not got a pic of the axle fitted as i forgot to take one but heres a few pics...also had to buy a new trailing arm!! the cars sitting higher than it was before, ive yet to decide if i should lower it more or not..will get pics up of it at wk end.
Also just picked these up..got them off octane1290, not really the wheels i wanted but my tyres are getting low and my wheels could use a refurb anyway these will do for now...never know may like them!! will fit them at wk end.. done a lil p/s to see what they will look like
#35: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: BrEvY, Location: WiganPosted: Fri Apr 23, 2010 12:51 pm ---- Fitted the wheels 2night, don't look to bad i think... still not sure on the height though..think it needs bringing down a touch on the rear...

#37: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: Ross, Location: West MidlandsPosted: Fri Apr 23, 2010 12:54 pm ---- Wheels look decent mate, you could do a hell of a lot worse!
Does look a tad high at the rear, but personally I think you should drop the front and the back
#38: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: Mikey2uk, Location: StevenagePosted: Fri Apr 23, 2010 12:54 pm ---- I like the nimmies more but its you car, still looks good tho
#40: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: BrEvY, Location: WiganPosted: Fri Apr 23, 2010 12:59 pm ---- Cheers folks.. im tempted lower the rear more, just means stripping it all again lol!!! Cant win..was a tad to low before now its a tad to high!! arghhhh
The nimmies will be going back on after a refurb and when the rubber on these is dead.. Saying that may try vortex's
Will try get some better pics over week end.
#41: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: Lecktorious, Location: ScotlandPosted: Fri Apr 23, 2010 1:01 pm ---- I wonder if thats the same Guttmann that manufactured your oil filter that made all the kits and tuning parts for the Peugeot's of the 80's and early 90's.
#42: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: BrEvY, Location: WiganPosted: Fri Apr 23, 2010 1:03 pm ---- No idea mate, got it from euro car parts
#43: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: Aaronrussell1990, Location: Medway townsPosted: Mon May 03, 2010 12:30 pm ---- Car looks very good,IMO the back could be a little lower but 206 looks nice with front end rake.
keep it up though will look very nice!
#51: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT????

#64: Re: Brevy's W.I.P GT???? Author: 2Oh!6, Location: GloucesterPosted: Sun May 09, 2010 7:14 am ---- I can't really find a guide how to. Last time I tried to fit them on my old car only the main beam would work, think I need the relay thing or something as I had just one loose kinda flapping wire lol.

there's a wiring diagram in the how to section but if your still stuck best person to speak to would be dj xs, he also has h4 - h7 adaptors for sale if you need some, was the one wire a red one?? if so that goes to the fuse box.
