Looks good mate, clean as always!
Never been to Alport Heights but maybe that could be the location to get lots of cars together and have the photo shoot!

Thanks mate, yeah it would be good up there. As long at it's sunny, it was freezing and windy the day I took that photo!
I'd be up for it
Good lad!
Get my new SLR soon so I would be up for some pics...
Sounds like a plan! we'll have to stick a thread up in the EM section.
we'll have to stick a thread up in the EM section.*Sunday afternoon when I finish work?
Is it not the regional meet?
You can have a roast in the pub! Lol
Sounds like a plan!
Well have a chat about it on Sunday!
do it
Haha okay!
why the hell would I want to do that? Sunday's a day of rest, a mans home is his castle and sundays I adhere to that like glue
theres also the usual sticking point of the large volumes of beer I tend to drink on sunday afternoons
Flol!
Time for some more progress?
I hated the standard Cup interior, and MicKPM was selling his cheap so I snapped it up. I'm not the sort of person to do half a job, so all the carpet came out to be cleaned and also put sound deadening in the door cards as well.

Looks really clean, but the exhaust looks about 0.5cm-1cm too high?
Cheers
Yeah it was, it's now got this exhaust though

Oh right, I was gonna say it looked a bit crap, but didn't want to offend, so thought I'd play nice with the height. :rasp:
New one looks much better.
What was the old exhaust? The pipes look bigger than standard, but not big enough...
Haha it was pretty s**t! New one is loads better.
Scorpion centre section and then custom rear silencer. Not a clue what it was tbh, nobody could identify it either!
I organised a rolling road day at DynoTech in Ripley. The turnout was really good and was happy with the figure I got!

I really wasn't happy with the ride height and was waiting for these to come back in stock for what seemed like ages. I was so happy when they arrived.

This thread is still about 6 months outdated. So much progress to catch up on
Got a K&N panel filter of Chip-mk1 for a good price. Makes it cheaper for servicing as I can just take it out, clean it and re-oil. Adds slightly more induction noise too!

I couldn't stand the halogen lights anymore so decided it was time for an upgrade. First set got broken in transit, so bought these set and @MicKPM very kindly collected these when he went to pick up his seats.
It was a right s**tty job getting the bumper off, two rounded screws which took forever to sort out, got it off in the end though.
