First thing i did was Lower it by 60mm all round!!

i had to do this because the front left spring snapped so i thought why not lower it :D

The exhaust is fine. Hope you do a good job on the rest. I've seen a very well done ph3 before with valver arches and bonnet, and Willy alloys.

I love a good rat. Get rusting that bonnet.

Some more news i have had straight threw stainless put on now got rid of the nosie bugger of exhurstUK did it messed up after 12 months, so hawleys sorted me out and it is better then ever :D

my view is DONT GO TO EXHURSTUK IN SHEFFIELD, OVER PRICED AND NOT WORTH IT!!!!

they charged me 12 months ago £150 to fit a brand new back box!! the one you see on pictures!! the baffles went and the exhursts has fell off 6 days out off the warrenty!! so i went to Hawleys in sheffield they charged me £250 for the whole system and got lifetime garentee with it :D and it sounds awesome :)

I wouldn't trust anyone with a company name like Exhursts...

Definitely rat-look. No way near "Euro"

PMSL @ everything. Exhursts is a classic, should go down in history with Amphasite.

Does some plank in that video tell you "You wanna get hold of a redtop"? FLOL!!

i have a proper mk1 ph1 and id be ashamed if it looked like that. when are you putting that redtop in it? would go well with that "exhurst" you nicked off a skyline!
seriously tho why the hell did you take your car to a shop that cant spell exhausts!

Ok, so some constructive comments from me, as it seems you haven't got many of these....

You've done some good bits, and some bad, so here goes:

I'd remove all the orange, except maybe the filler cap and a few orange stickers if you're really set on having orange as a theme try doing some orange engine styling or interior modifications etc.

Either keep the alloys you have in all black, they may look ok, or change for some smaller replica BBS or similar.

Drop the back down a bit more if possible.

Colour code the front rub strip.

Once you've done these bits and bobs it'll look quite effective, IMO of course.
