DC Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Yes, my baby has arrived.. Just thot i'd show ya's all.. http://members.optusnet.com.au/darrchan/Ce...Ceffy/Ceffy.jpg She's sexy, she purrs nicely, she gets nasty when i drive her hard.. One question if anyone knows, how da hell do u take da MOMO Boss Kit off? It's one of these.. http://members.optusnet.com.au/darr...fy/boss_kit.jpg The problem is that when driving straight, the steering wheel either points 45 degrees left or right. Can't adjust with the 6 screws cos it'll just point 45 degrees left or right.. Don't think wheel alignment is the problem cos it doesn't pull left or right when driving straight. I unscrew the 6 lil bolts on the steering wheel.. Disconnect the plugs for the horn.. Unscrew the big mutha of bolts in the middle.. But the big black metal thing still won't come off..?

DC Posted June 4, 2005 Author Share Posted June 4, 2005 all the mods are pretty much just what u see.. no aftermarket turbo. well spotted.. that IS rust on the driver's side door. but that has now been repaired and passed Regency after 2nd inspection. coming from an understeering FWD Turbo Laser to this will be a whole new world... can ya'll tell me if u come across an Online instruction manual or sumthin for a MOMO Boss Kit?

S13Deviat Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 Hey DC......nice ride dude! Another cefiro to grace the land of Oz. Just noticed a couple of things......i think u got the same rims as mine...( see pic below ) urs 4 stud? Also as i insepected mine today, i noticed something...being that most cefiros, have had a auto - manual conversion such as mine and urs......there are those 2 buttons on the center console, 1 for the aerial and 2nd for the automatic power selection ie power/normal/snow. You can see them in your interior pic, just to the left of the handbrake. Obviously this 'power' button is useless, dduuurrrrr, but was wondering if anyone knows where the wiring runs to as the button could come in useful for other applications......boost, fogs, omg NEONS...fully......lol etc. BTW DC does ur electric aerial button work?? lol mine doesnt ahahaha anyways......top stuff!!

matt25 Posted June 4, 2005 Share Posted June 4, 2005 to get the boss kit off, take the fat nut in the middle off then screw the steering wheel back on to the boss kit and use the steering wheel to pull the boss kit off, should come off easy. very tidy car, hope you enjoy it and she treats you well.

funkymonkey Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 R33Deviat, your antenna button will only work if the antenna is hooked up to a stereo (needs an earth signal to make it work) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/75744-my-mail-order-bride-has-arrived/#findComment-1391218 Share on other sites More sharing options...

boj01 Posted June 5, 2005 Share Posted June 5, 2005 To get the steering wheel/boss kit off, bang hard on the steering wheel at 3 o'clock and 9 o'clock with the ball of your fist. That way it loosens the boss from the steering column shaft.
