problems with my 20 year old AU1 futura
problem: lose wheel centre caps, lost one on a dirt road, tabs break off
solution: hot glue the thing in place
problem: rear brake noise, i assume its the brake caliper slides as the car was sitting for years
solution:remomve entire diff and replace it with an XR6 3.45 LSD and territory brakes
problem: front brakes overheat too quick
solution 1: remove plastic dust shields from stock 15in alloys
solution 2: buy an AU2 XR6 and swap over the front twin piston brakes (fit under stock 15in alloys)
solution 3: fit FG XR6t from brakes (now have to fit 17in S1 tickford alloys)
thats all the issues i have had but its only got 100,000km on it so i'm sure there will be more own the track
