Weird, but it would turn but not in-gage on the flywheel. I know, It worked fine when we went to see it, I just refused to through the little cog out. I kept it, Maybe it needs a clean/lub up...

Ok Some time for an update.
The car has been over the pits and Passed the First time. SEE!!!!, KPM Does good work!!!!:p
The funny thing though, on the way back from the pits, Mid way from home, Pop!! and i had no drive anymore!!! I was devastated...., Called Paul and asked what he thought and with some pointers, I left the car in 5th gear, engine running, Popped the bonnet, Had a look, the LH inner cv cup was rotating but not the shaft. OUFFFF, thank god its not the gearbox. So called a tow truck and got it towed home.
Luckily i've got the parts car. I was not looking forward to remove the cv and having oil flow out like all those other FWD, but i was surprised to see it had the male stud/pin system. 30mins was too much to get that done.
Since then she has been driving great. Its Been on the road since 26.02.13. I filled the tank with 98ron, It took 26Liters and i've done 372K's so far and i've got a about 1/7 over reserve left:p F*£K!!! Lol..
So far On the maintenance side of this i've Replace,
Engine Oil
Oil Filter
Gearbox Oil
Air Filter
Fuel Filter
Spark Plugs
I plan to replace the following soon
Dizzy cap
Dizzy Rotor
Coolant
Thermostat
Timing belt kit
Water pump
Brake fluid/check as fluid is a bit low... Car even came with red calipers. Must add at least 5-10hp:)
As you know, So far i've replaced a starter and a CV shaft.
NOW..., The most important part, MODS!!!!!!>>>
Not much has been happening! LOL. Been busy with work, uni and fixing mates cars. The only mod i was able to do was this. I used a set of Gen1 Liberty sedan Rola racks that i has to shorten. What do you guys think?
List of mods i'm thinking of doing...
-Cup Holders...., ESSENTIAL!!!
-Thinking of putting a Tacho. Don't worry, I'll go for something small and subtle and not getting a 8inch one with shift light etc!!
-Rims, Maybe 13 or 14's but not sure what would fit...
-And finally,
Turbo, bodykit, Hydrolic suspention, keyless entry with lambo doors... LOL
OR Maybe do something like the topgear guys did to their wagon.
Ok Ok, NOW..., I could not resist the last two items...., This does NOT mean you guys can start Spamming My thread with ridiculous Pics etc...
You know who you are...., Jules, TOM, Paul and the few other amateurs....
LOL!!

So got back from work yesturday and parked the car under the garage. After about an hour i want to go to the shops, jumped in the little beast and turn the key, she cranked vigorously but would not fire. Quick check and there was no spark. F"*K!!!!!
Paul gone back to work, I then called a "qualified Mechanic" , John for help. He kindly dropped by after work to help me trace back the fault. After a few minutes of searching, turn out the coil plug was not making a good connection. Quick clean and she fired first go.
Since i noticed she had a miss at idle, Getting worst and worst, MAN Issues after Issues. A quick check once she was cold and it turned out to be a loose spark plug lead:)
Thank god nothing serious so far...
Ouuuu, I'm picking up another project car tomorrow. A silver anniversary edition lol.... Hummmmm Fancy......

Update on the Fiori, Well i should say Fiori's now:). I've now done just over 3000k's with the little beast, Hit 130kph and it felt comfortable, Would want to loose control at those speeds tho!!!! Gets to 100kph quite easily i must say, even surprising some idiots in there commodores etc and they decide to race!!! idiots!!! Anyway, a CV has developed a click, will wait till it gets worst and just grab one off the parts car. no biggy!
On the other hand, this is what my back yard looks like now....
And my baby isn't among those..., So yeah i've got 4 now:p
Bought the two yesterday. One (Gold looking wheels)187000k's, is licensed, but had a front hit and needs a new clutch kit (supplied by the owner) and much needed cleaning and tlc but looks like it will back on the road soon.
The other 300+k's is unlic, was used as the doner car by the previous owner so has quite a few bits taken off. Apparently engine ran but the gearbox is gone. however i've got a box in my original parts car.
Anyway the paln is to fix the 187km one first and then see if i have enough bits to fix the 300km one.

That shouldn't be too hard - you'll only need one hand/arm to lift it!guyph_01 wrote:So far, I got the engine out of the 187km one and installed the new clutch:) Will get it back in when i have the time...
Looks like you've got a plan/goal for these buz boxes, good to see!

Hey guys,
Little update.
The First fiori, the nice one has now been sold to a mate.
The second one is still owned and used daily by my house mates and I was able to get the third fiori on the road. A big thx to Paul who has found some parts locally for me. Also a big thx goes to dfoyl who has been looking for parts for me over east.
Quite a bit more rough than the first one, not sure i'll ever find one in as good cond as that one was. But anyway. Thx to paul i'll soon be able to have air con on the third fiori:p lol.
So far ive been having a bit of fun with it, some carbon fiber on the bonnet and hood, Planning to get some alloys, get it lowered and try and get the exhaust a bit louder:) Might do some interior mods too.... Quite a few plans...
So far this is what she looks like
