a few weeks back when avoiding a crash I damaged two wheels on the sidewalk. so I had to arrange a different set of rims so that i can get the gt black line rims restored. 

 

so the coming months will my spider will stand on mak volare mirror rims. 

 

also I have sprayed the ugly original calipers silver .

on the rear calipers ware already coated black so i diddent painted them.

Thijs, the new wheels not bad at all. The shinning alu together with the rollbars, but i prefer the GT blacklines on your spider.

[EvoMan 116]

I do like the wheels. Makes the car look much meaner.

[kunev 131]

It's sad for damaged wheels  , I wish you fine restoration.

These wheels are not bad at all, but aren't something special to me. Did you have them or bought it because of damaged wheels needs time to be repaired?

I see that you haven't install brembo calipers yet. Your car will look much better with them and bigger discs   and also will stop better  .

[Paso 239]

Very elegant!

[Alfaduden 226]

Love the new wheels! Yellow is also one of my favourite colors on Spider! Take care of her

[Joris 136]

The new wheels are oke but must agree with Roy, the blacklines are a better match.

[charlee 314]

The blacklines are much better IMHO. Hope you repair them soon

and minor update for the end of the year.

 

the last months i have been busy with collecting parts

 

for example I have a neater and cleaner trunk upholstery and center console.

 

also, I'm on with my bic brake kit. now I only need brake pads, brake lines, rear brake discs and brake pads,

also I have a airduct bought for the bottom of the bumper, this should I saw still open and equipped with wire mesh. so that I can make a ram air for the bmc cda air filter that i have for while. 

 

don't mind the clutter around it, am still busy with a few other projects (ducati monster600 and a  honda ss50)

 

 

 

 

 

 

last Sunday I went to a small meeting. the so-called oliebollen meeting. I don't know how you guys call it on the other side of the world. but in the Netherlands we eat the oliebollen always around new year. 

 

also there were still a couple members from here. JimBo with his sportiva, joost1990 with his turbo ts, and-1337-with his new 3.0 24v He has not yet introduced.

The calipers look really good  . Powder coating? That disc is 305 mm, right? The adapters also look good. Waiting for pictures after brake upgrade  .

[butt head 43]

Indeed 305 mm brake discs. the calipers are just sprayed with VHT caliper paint color number SP-736

[00Alfa Andy 50]

Nice job on the calipers., can't wait to see them fitted to your car.

Great photos thanks for sharing them.

[charlee 314]

350Z style calipers?

The poor girl fell of the bike. Her boobs crushed by the front wheel. I wish her a speedy recovery.

I had a few days off during the Christmas season. so I'm only gone to tinkering.

 

the spider had a shifting problem lately. After lubricating the shiftingrods and and chancing gear oil  it goes a lot better but still not perfect. 

the only what still can be lubricated is the shifting mechanism on top of the gearbox. 

 

 

 

Yesterday I thought I quikly replace the center console . Unfortunately, it turns out toe be more work than I expected.

the whole dashboard had to get out of the car to replace the upper part. 

 

 

but it's worked out successful and it looks a lot nicer.

the new center console. 

[EvoMan 116]

Omg. That looks like a huge job. I can imagine that took you quite some time. Nice end result. Top job!

I had the same thing with my gearbox, had it flushed and new oil and now it shifts smoother then ever before. Actually small metal particles where found. By flushing you remove these, and less damage by those particles.

[butt head 43]

It was indeed quite a big job.. Saturday from 15.00 to 16.40. Sunday from 9.30  to 16.00 worked on it. 

 

 

but the result is there to see. 

 

 

 

 the oil of my gearbox was black as engine oil. it woudtent surprise me if it had the last 8 years no oil chance . Luckily I had no metal chips in it.
