Bit of ASW - but thought it would be nice to have a record of all the changes from start to finish. Wont include much writing, just pictures
First purchased March 2008 - car was on 53k after doing 17k in one year, got it for a bit of a steal
Before i took any pictures i had changed the side badges and fitted a smaller front plate
Then went and attacked castle combe 10 days after purchase which highlighted terrible tyres :|
Fitted some Eibach sportlines and removed the window tints as they wern't for me :nono:
Had a few quiet months while i sorted my finances and did a few little things like colour coding the side badges, replaced a few engine mounts etc
Gave the car a full and well deserved detail before the bigger modifications began, although i didnt really grumble at how it currently looked
Went to Curborough Sprint track for a sprint day there

Got some trophy turinis which tbh, i didnt like when it was on the sportlines
Bought a janspeed full system which was rubbish so had some changes to centre silencer and mountings and now sits perfectly
Next up i fitted H&R's, brembo HC discs, DS2500's and braided lines
Wasn't happy with the ride hieght so removed some of the rear assembly making sure it was still safe
Next up went to Silverstone and Mallory park
Stripped all the rear interior as well as fitting some Sparco Rev buckets
Then changed my headlights to black xenons from a 172 as i hated the grey faded look of the 182 ones and chopped the H&Rs in for some AST's and changed my badges to carbon which really left it looking as it does now below
Now on 64k, had its major service at 60k (cambelt and tensioners etc) and im loving every minute driving it
ASW FTW :rasp:
