Sorry for the lack of pictures, im not usually into the whole "blogging/doing write ups". but as im bored, i thought id give it a go! So late august year, my love afair with my low **** finally came to an end, too much beaching on speedhumps had taken its toll on the gearbox/diff and it locked...

I have both a standard airbox with an ITG pannel filter, and an open cast K&N filter, personally i think the k&N did look marginly better and sound much better, but will it be bringing the power down by any noticable amount?? i can make a cold air feed for it also if need be! any input...

sand it back to bare metal, and paint it with rust stopper??

why do people do performance mods when there is a speed limit?? why do people put buckets in when the standard seats are prefectly good?? why do people fit foglights to base models when its so rarely foggy? its down to personal prefrence!! is nobody else place to judge my taste. its my...

mounting a bar between the two legs that go down toward the rear arches. the cage is held on by 4bolts on each legs going to the arch, and two bolts each leg that mounts to the bottom of the Bpillar, the bar would be welded in, however my worry would be, in the even of the an accident, all...
