Congrats, I advise you to take it very easy if its your first RWD car. :thumleft:

Firstly I would check what kind of wheels/tyres you have, they need to be staggered and a decent brand. Also I would advise getting an allignment done if you dont have any documentation of one being done in the last 6 months or so.

Far too many people buy tubbys as a first rwd car only to write them off after a few weeks of ownership.

Welcome!

You need a min of 15 posts I believe before you can do any hot linking of any kind.

Car sounds like a beaut, looking forward to some piccies, and take it easy. They are a small, surprisingly powerful car, coupled with the engine location and drivetrain you gotta be awake.

Just take it easy, straighten up and then give it the beans :evil:

Too many 2's and their drivers have ended up in hedges because of a heavy right foot, dont be one of them.

Above all, have some bloody fun in it! \:D/

Yes it will take some getting used to as RWD have had lots of FWD cars but not with this RWD SWB and a fair bit of power :)

Haha! :eye:

Sounds pretty good, i've only used the falken FK452's but that was a few years ago now.

Once you get used to em there fine, im probably over exaggerating a bit as i've used a tubby all year round and im pretty cackhanded. Should be easier to drive than a Clio V6 at least :mrgreen:
