Yes the bumper is a shade or two out, but it looks a lot better in the flesh!
Going to try and fit new coilovers on the rear tommorow, but need to try and fit D2 top mounts to Raceland coilovers first. If they dont fit, then ill just have to try and unseize the D2 coilovers :(
Blue seats...
Id love a turbo but insurance would rape me :(
Me and my dad sprayed the bumper. Colour is slightly off but thats halfords fault not ours lol ;)
Found some red BRIDE low max's now :) Going to order them as soon as i get payment for these
Yeah got some coilovers in the garage which need modifying as they're for wrong shape subaru, but will attempt to fit them ASAP as the rear looks gay high :(
Also tried to fit colour coded side skirts but could get the old ones off. Screws keep turning in the plastic gromits so dont know how...
Gaz, yeah lol. Although i dont think it will last too much longer to be honest, taking a beating down there!
Naith, yeah its almost come round full circle now, back to where i started almost. Think i needed to get the big wing and scoop done and out of my system, been there done that now, time...
Done a little bit more done on the bumper today, not a great deal as i couldnt be bothered, and only had an hour after uni before i had to go to work.
Also picked up a free bumper from the bodyshop, said i could have it so i can drive around whilst mine is being sprayed! So called into...
No way Gaz, with all those MG ZR's? Bloody followed, and got stuck behind them all on the way in! Would explain why you saw me at hotel aswell though.
Show was alright i thought, some nice stuff mixed in with a lot of chav crap. And the bumholes who wouldnt stop playing their s**t music as...
Yeah kinda got lost lol, did you hear my fucked drive shaft? Saw you going into pod aswell, i was a couple of cars behind you and saw you turning off to the left onto the grass parking.
Yeah was the cheapest one i could find, and quality is pretty s**t....but lets be honest, its not going to stay in 1 piece for too long being this low ;) Booked it in for a respray so at least the colour will match. Then just need to get colour coded skirts fitted aswell :)
PMSL!!
Just got back from Fast Show at pod, was a good day but was on a stand in the middle of no where and with no one that i knew lol.
Just uploading pics now, but heres one from the show and one from the journey back!
On the black one above? Weak offsets on the front, but staggered SSR Professors, 8.5 & 9.5 are very nice wheels in the flesh :) and cost an arm and a leg!
And what i was originally going to write, id love an S2000, been in my mates a couple of times and really love it. Saving up for one now but will take me a couple of years :(
This!
Where i work we set our race cars to 55mm of ground clearance which is a lot lower than most cars considering flat floors and everything, and they handle perfectly. We would get them even lower but regulations restrict ride height to 55mm.....so what im saying is we could further improve...
No this is called building your own car....you know, putting the wheels you want on, getting it at the height you want, putting bits on that you want, basically building a car that you want....
and at the end of the day its got same size engine as a cliosport ;)
lmao, front garden is my spray booth ;)
They dont mind, my dad is just as bad!
Got STI big brake conversion to go on, but got to get them painted up first, maybe do that today if i get chance. Got to see how much i can get done on the car in the next 2 weeks or so. STI brakes...
Nope dont rub at all :) They are very stiff though
Will probably take black splitter off tommorow as the scraping is too much, it actually sits on the floor!
Also got car booked in at paint shop to get front bumper and splitter re sprayed once ive smoothed it out :) Going to smooth fog...
Finally bought some brand new coilovers :)
And soon to go in
Still needs some tweaking, front up slightly and rear down slightly...quite pleased that the tyres dont scrape on the arches, even when turning :)
It will do everything that i need it too, its a small rural village so you cant drive fast anyway, its also really quiet and i dont think ive been followed going over the bumps yet! Everyone knows me and knows what to expect after my clio lol :cool:
People always assume that low cars are...
Well its in a rural village with school children and elderly people so i thought it best to go as slow as possible :approve: ....saying that though i can do them at about 5-10mph, sounds painfull though!
Exactly, and if i were to make it go faster then the economy would suffer and im...
