7th

Tried in vain to get one of the front ball joints out, to replace the rubber boot. Without the right tool we damaged one though :-( Hitting the threaded upright part just compressed the threads and it wouldn't budge. A lesson learnt.

7th

Dropped the Eunos off at Retro & Modern Automotive Ltd (was Suffolk Mazda), to get the front ball joint rubbers done. They are replacing the lower ball joints completely on both sides.

24th

New wheels and tyres Finally got round to getting my new trackday wheels and tyres out of storage to fit them to the Eunos :-)
New wheels and tyres on They look so much better than the other wheels :-)

After a quick test drive wiht my Dad it is clear the new tyres are a massive improvement. The car rides much better and they is a lot more grip. The tyres have completely transformed the handling.

23rd

Preparing the car this weekend for its longest run yet. Have a pass to exhibit it at the Goodwood Breakfast Club next weekend! It's a Japanese car meet called Sushi Sunday.

28th

Found out the Goodwood Breakfast Club meet has been cancelled due to waterlogged car parks :-(
