'71 bus Ej25

[rennsport]

the subaru wheels are not in 5 x112 , I have 10mm adapter on the front and 15mm on the rear, no probleme for the moment...

I ll more safe if I have porsche wheels !!!, but BBS LM in 17" have 10mm offset

not good for my bus, and I didn t want to fit 18" wheel, perhaps a set of RH turbo twist in 17 ...

OK, just in case if you are not happy with your offset, or want original LMs.
BTW what is that gold color yoou are using? It looks like genuine BBS gold, very nice

Very nice bay! Great details! Must be fun to drive!

[rennsport]

thanks
It s really fun to see the face of the T5 drivers when I passed them on the highway at 180 km/h

I do some mods on the Martin Bott oil sump, a welded bung for the oil temp sensor and a oil control baffle ( the oil light is on when I make big brake ) and modify the clutch pedal and rebuilt the axles ( changing the CV boots )





I found an error with my throttle cable, I accelerated just at the middle


repare now and go faster !!! Go to 105 mph with the 4th gear , and after past the 5th, the speed go back to 99 , I need a road slightly in descent to went to 112 mph.I can t test the max speed for the moment

with the garmin gps , I ve test the speed, 0/60mph in 8,5 seconds just good with my little 2,5l non turbo :smt023

So the police take me my driving license for 2 months...too speed :smt018

Waiting is too long....
