Still a sore subject.

Oh.
Am I the only one not upset !?
It's a cheap French pocketrocket which will be used to drive like it's intended on track and when necessary round the twistiez.
I knew what I was buying (almost) before I bought it. Hence I bought it.
I'm not bothered that it's not factory fresh. That's to much like hard work especially for a <£3k shed.
I'd never have bought a mint one as it was always going to be a track toy !

I'll take the coilovers off you when you get new ones if you want?
Sounds good to me, Mark

Seriously, a ph1 set of front seats is about £40. Surely you could find a runner if you actually looked?

Im thinking of getting rid of the konis/sportlines and getting "that look" and using the difference to pay toward a sabelt wheel. I ran the vmaxx for 2 years on the bg so I can live with them untill I do eventually get some better ones.
But well see when your ready
I've already brunged it to the last meet at The Unit a couple of nights ago
Won't be at the SRR day this Sat in the specialbus but will probably see you somewhere soon

I don't think i'll get it on track ? The ticket is for S2POA not X441JOR .. I'm not sure how it works TBH.... chip_mk1 ?
Other than that, it'll be half a tank of fuel used to follow Dave up the road lol !
You can bring it and just tell them you've changed vehicles.
Mine must be leaking from somewhere else. Found out yesterday when I took the rear bench out. - Big puddle of water and soaking boot carpet.
The only thing I can think of is the boot seal or the rear lights.
My titanium leaks too, like a pond in there right now. Only noticed now I started stripping it down, i think its been doing it a while!
I've already paid for the ticket - I don't want to make this a £500 day out lol if I can help it !!
So... I guess this is turning into a little project Rob could you move it please ?
Another 150 miles done today. That seat needs sorting out ASAFP !
45MPG easily achieved 65-70 on the m'way. Perfect !!
New clean proper plates are here - some paintwork to clean up before they can go on however...
The Saxo washerjets are here too as is an aerial adaptor for the Alpine HU - just haven't got round to fitting them yet !
Matched inlets purchased - Will put on one night in the week at work.
Leaky lights fixed. Had OOOOOODLES of rain the last week - not a drop in there .. so it seems to be sorted !
Boombox pending a Goodj visit to the SE Bloody well needs it .. far too much high + mid and fcuk all bass from the paper 10cm (13cm?!) cones of wonder.
Bumped into my old ph1 today too ..

I do like this car, that rear bumper though. Its honeslty the same colour as a civic jordan.
Haha edited pictures for the win Dan.
Good track car, I'm guessing the 25mm spacers will be coming off or the cup bottom arms? as I'd imagine the wheels trying to eat the bumper on track otherwise.
Its shocking tbh @Craig. I mean its a clean car, but its not mint as so many people thought. Not that I can talk as my cars are always sheds!
Be alright with the cup wishbones and spacers as long as there are no arch liners fitted, my flamer ran AST top mounts set with full castor and 25mm spacers and williams wheels (higher offset) and was fine.

I was planning on removing the arch liners for track TBH
Bit of extra room and also a bit more air flow to the brakes !
Can't get it to scrub yet when in full combat roundabout attack mode... so we'll see...

To many people see pictures of cars on here & say that's mint best car etc without even seeing them in person. I seen it 2yrs ago at fcs & was disappointed as it didn't match upto the pics, but hey who am I to judge other peoples cars.
Was yours fine on track too mate? Could just imagine it catching I no mine did with standard castor & 20mm spacers so had to lift them up.
It's a Pioneer thing that Brendan already has and wants rid of.
All you need is a sub - a decent enough HU that can cut bass to the speakers up front and you're away. Job done.
