Well after having my vtr for a couple of months or so i thought id best start a progress thread. The car came completly standard with 56,000 on the clock with 6 months tax and mot for a good price. I dont have any pics of how the car looked standard but this is how she stands now.

The car has been lowered 40mm on the front and 50mm on the back courtesy of vts_swedge top lad and didnt stop trying even with how seized the torsion bars were cheers again mate. I have also fitted a supersprint race centre section with a peco 4 inch outward rolled backbox which i may change soon. Also i got some vts wheels for it at a fairly cheap price with brand new tyres on so i refurbed them in anthracite. I had the doors delocked and smoothed over because some c*nt broke into my car and nicked my alpine headunit. More mods to come.

Ah yea your torsion bars were pretty damned seized in, i've had worse since but yours took the biscuit.

Well ive bought another set of wheels this time some 205 gti speedlines in white got them off a lad from 106 owners. I really like the way they look also ive stripped the back seats out not sure if they will go back in soon though.

Enjoy :p
