Been after a new set of wheels to replace the huge 17s for the past few weeks. I was offered these lightweight 16" Wedsport RS-5's at a great price with almost new continental tyres. They're rare as fook too!
Not had chance to take any decent pics yet, i want to polish them up properly before i...
It's been filthy for weeks, covered in dust and bird s**te etc, hardly driven it at all :dapprove:
Anyway before and after pics...
Not bad for a quick wash, i cant wait to get it PC'd it's absolutely covered in swirls, not one panel without them :dead:

Well i was too skint to go home and go out so i'm stuck at uni over easter, got bored tonight and after watching a video of BTCC that someone posted on here earlier i went about photoshopping my car, lol. Turned out quite well i reckon :cool:

Loosely inspired by this...
Just come across these glow-in-the-dark stickers, what do you think are they cool or chavtastic?
I'm not sure, they could possibly look good if done right, these wheels are for an Impreza sti 05'.

night:
Finally sprayed my scuttle panel, looks much much better and only took me an hour or so :)
Gave the wipers a coat too as they had a bit of surface rust...

I've been thinking about changing the look of my car a little. Here it is at the minute:
But now i have stripped the rear and fitted buckets it's a bit silly that i'm running along on 17's! I miss the handling of 15's.
I wouldnt using ideas from some of these :cool:

Car: L reg 1.4 RT 100k Decat'd Exhaust
Been snowing here most of the day, I popped out for a drive at about 9.30pm and after driving through a snow covered carpark my car began to splutter. So i thought it was either just because of the cold or i had got a bit of water in my engine; usually...
I refurbed my wheels in Gloss Black this weekend, they were satin black before and were looking really dull and some of the paint had flaked off. So i went and cleaned it afterwards and took some pics, the security guard at one of the locations wasn't very happy! :rasp:
Nearly ready for the...
When lowering the torsion bar on a 1.8 Rsi, is it the exact same method as doing an RT? There seems to be 2 bars on the Rsi, and opposed to the single one on the RT...Thanks!
Fitted the Sparco's on friday sprayed the rear saturday and cleaned it today :D Comments welcome...
Thanks for looking :) Think i might do the wheels gloss black soon, they look really dull when they're dirty. Also got a brand new sparco strut brace to fit :)
I fitted a pair of sparco buckets into my mk1 today, and they are that low i cant see over the dashboard properly. Used a pillow to raise it up a bit and they're fine but i look a complete goon carrying a pillow around in my car. I'm about 5 ft 10" so i'm no midget. Using sparco subframes too so...
Black mk2 earlier on today going into carpark near transport museum, and naples valver on roundabout near the Uni tonight, Anyone? :)
Reg on mk2 ended in KTT
Well it's been off the road for a month due to failing the dreaded MOT on rusty sills! Got it sorted over xmas for a very decent price of £130, the fella welded both sills, dropped the back axle and welded that too, then painted and waxed it! Also decatted now, she bangs!
Took it for a wash...
Am i right in thinking that a 19 16v engine would go straight into my RT?
For example if i bought a full car would everything (subframe,shafts,gearbox) fit the same as it would if i used a clio 16v donor? Seems to me that 19 16v's go for a fair bit cheaper for some reason :dapprove: Thanks

My car recently failed the MOT due to loads of rust, L reg mk1 :dapprove:
Anyway here's what i need to replace to get it through!
Sill L/H side : £22 (68-30-007 Beevers)
Sill R/H side : £22 (68-30-006 Beevers)
Rear arch L/H : £16 (816745000...
Anyone got pics of mk1's with the rear stripped out? i might strip mine as the back seats are never used. also how much louder does it make the exhaust sound inside the car, considering i have have a 1.4 rt with stainless and decat :)
Gav
So i decided to do the V6 mk2 before the Ph-Quick just to break things up a bit, here goes :D i love it!
A lot of effort went into shading this one, my fingers are killing :dapprove:
If anyone wants a print i'll charge the same as the 182 prints
Registration Plates or Names can be added :)...
There seems to be a shortage of good hi-res photos of this car on the net, and i need a picture of one to do my next clio sketch.
It needs to be at a similar angle to the car below, and a decent resolution at least 1024x768
So Standard phase 1's only please, Thanks everyone :)
Gav
Following on from my other thread, i've finally got round to doing my first sketch for cliosport members. Perfect in a frame on the bedroom wall! :) It's 3.20 am so i might f**k this up :rasp:

My 1.4 RT engine is coming upto 100k miles and things are starting to go wrong.
So i've had my mind set on a 1.8 16v conversion for next summer but since im a student i've also been thinking about a diesel engine for reliability and a bit of go, what renault turbo diesel engine would fit a mk1...
