Sigma GK GSR daily

[A112H]

Nice to see you are getting into it again, I thought you might have lost the faith when it died a few months back.
Good to see you kept the black rocket cover

[GC75]

Nah never lost faith, and ill be putting the red on again and making it all pretty when i can be bothered haha.

[FATGSR]

WOW... gezz man glad 2 see u kept tha sigma...
bro i miss it so much ay... as much as it needed work and me no time 2 do it... i miss it so much ay...
Please tell me it still has tha LOCKER in it.. it dominated tha streets..
i can still remember ur face and remarks..

F*#k yer brah this goes hard lol...

it chopped them 225 65's like butter...

Any way... is it treating u alright ?

[GC75]

yup still got her

haha yeah still has the locker, and ive got over dominating the streets and shreeding rubber.

Blew the head gasket in the engine that i bought it with.

Then fucked yet another engine.

Now on my 3rd engine, bout the only problems ive had haha.

Still got a set of 225 65's for the rear !

yeah been treating me alright other then the odd engine troubles, now i gotta replace welsh plugs in the current engine, leaking coolant but not as bad as the others haha. (scorpion bottom end)

Getting there with it, fixed everything up pretty much interior wise, getting the car more reliable and what not. Got the rust quoted and plan to make it look clean and shmick again! Just want a decent little cruiser out of it

also got these in the mail;


now all i need to do is buy monroe shocks and the thing should handle alot better, but supercheap quoted me $550 which im not happy with haha. Also gunna whack some newer welsh plugs in the engine, to prevent more troubles.

Got new shoes off my brother;

Need spacers to fit the fronts though, hopefully have them on and working next week.

Also got a new clutch cable off my brother thats still in its package. Another problem that will be resolved as the one im using currently is pretty worn and shows its age.

Plan on doing a boot insert using checker plate, and also going to paint the inner boot with some por15... that way i can mount my amp and shit in the boot properly instead of having it move round the boot. Also clean up more said wiring problems.

After i get things cleaned up some more and get it running realiable with my new brakes/shocks/springs ill look into having the rust cut out...

Still gotta find some fusion speakers for the door trims which i will put in eventually haha.

in general got a few ideas that should make the GSR appear, and go better.

[webby]

Looks like they sit a fair bit further in the guards than the stockers, I'm going to take a stab and say they came off an FWD? Need spacers for the rear too, a 30mm bolt-on per side should do the trick

[GC75]

They came off my brothers sigma turbo

They actually sit quite nice in the rear, just rub out on the front.

Ill sort something out!

GSR's have a theme ??

Oh hang on the GSR's theme was a domesticated sports car with wheels that looked like kitchen utensils

GC maybe you need to cable tie some pots and pans to them rims so they fit the "GSR Theme"

or maybe you can add these


sports car = 5 spoke

[GC75]

Wheels look good, ill get a decent photo soonish.

[A112H]

Looks good

[75wagon]

I can't believe I'm saying this, But I actually think polished pepper pots look better

Dave...

[GC75]

pfffft dave no way.

[75wagon]

A set of red wall tyres would go well also.

They do have red walls.

I'm soooooooooo sick of pepperpots. Done to death and boring as shit.

Agreed, that's why I said.

They have to be polished though, otherwise

I just found this vid

It seems as though a few SG members got together and decided to build a car

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q3V5S7Nh ... re=related

[GC75]

they'd look better if the fronts where out the camber, and the rears were just tucked under the guard, how would i go about that ?? is it possible!

btw need help on monroe shocks, where to find them cheaper then supercheap... anyone got any sets for a GK in good condition???

Otomoto sell universal camber tops, astronturbo77 used them for his Lancer. Or you could weld up the original bolt holes in the strut tower, redrill and use S13 cambertops.
You can spin the factory strut tops around too, should give you another 1-1.5deg of camber. I did this on my Scorp in about 5 minutes, it made the car a little unstable >120km/h but it turns in a lot better.
Too bad it's not a GE/GH, with a bit of filing you can use KE70 cambertops in those as the bolt pattern for the strut tops is very similar.
That takes care of the camber thing, I'd be going to a coilover front end as well though otherwise you'll be hitting the strut tower with the spring when you adjust the cambertops for more negative camber.
Rims look ok, I still think you need spacers though

[GC75]

theres 14mm of spacer on the front and 10mm on the back, cheers for the info webby

[FATGSR]

heres the new shoes.

looks alot better then the pot and pan wheels haha.

YER wow that looks great...

so much betta with peppers...
ill buy a set of peppers ???? how much ???

[75wagon]

I think I know what it is about the wheels that I'm unsure on.
I think the alloy centre distracts from the other wise black wheel with polished lip.
Paint the centre of them black and it will improve the look of them.
