103.2bhp when it was last RR'd, had a random pipe with no middle box, changed the exhaust to a Pugsport, and felt the difference, considerably torquier.
One day in the next year or so, will be a valver, and hopefully be VT* kitted by that point too.:A:

Comments & Criticism welcome. :)

Looking good dude. I wanted a XS back in the day but they are too rare to find and plus everyone thinks they are 1.1s so it a sleeper(ish).

titchster

23rd April 2009, 06:15

Im back up there soon man, mate's getting him to do some stuff to the Loop, and im getting my bigger ARB fitted, all is good with the world.

Am actually tempted to take the extensions off, but we did when it got lowered and it looked kinda bare, but they're starting to come off now, so im tempted to try it again, if I dont like it tigerseal the fuckers back on again.

Oli_K

23rd April 2009, 11:56

titchster

1st May 2009, 22:11

Top end of Worksop mate. 5 minutes from town centre, you gotta be somewhere like Cresswell, Whitwell, out that way?

Ben

titchster

1st May 2009, 22:34

Ben, sounds good one day mate. :y:

Gav, they fucked off not long after I got it. Well, one did, it came loose, flew off, and brokeded. Took other one off to even it up, and took back ones off when it got lowered, but it looked a bit bare, so they went back on.

Oli_K

26th June 2009, 22:27

adamsax

27th June 2009, 13:56

Nice but I would've built the rims back up with some filler or something before spraying the wheels.

:y:

titchster

27th June 2009, 17:27

Cheers guys. If we'd have had more time (and money) then I would've probably sent them to be done professionaly, as it stands, thats how they are though, really wanting to sell them and get some lighter wheels, but finding some for cheap enough is a bitch.

Tidy little car.

titchster

28th June 2009, 20:11

Cheers guys.
yeah, wing is a different colour, having thoughts, and talks about respraying the whole car, although it might just come down to respraying that wing.

Ben

28th June 2009, 20:17

Looks nice dude, but get some Tyre Shine on there ;)

titchster

29th June 2009, 07:27

Feck off with the tyre shine, I get enough of that from another forum. :p My excuse is that i'd just done the wheels, and didnt have any with me. :p

Cheers though. :D

Oli_K

Got a new seat, RMD Maximum Protection, and an RMD dished wheel, went to a mate's to fit em yesterday, and he donated me a subframe, so it's all good

http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff26/titchster/XS/Image105.jpg
http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff26/titchster/XS/Image106.jpg

And the interior (yes, it's a bit 'half hearted', but it's an everyday car, and i've not got another car to use if I don't fancy using mine, so I can't take it too far)

http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff26/titchster/XS/Image108.jpg

Metal plate that's been bugging me... vanishio...
http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff26/titchster/XS/Image109.jpg

And a random one of the car from behind, just for good measure
http://i241.photobucket.com/albums/ff26/titchster/XS/Image107.jpg

Set of Rallye 'half' door cards to be tried soon, so I can loose the full sized ones. Waiting on a new arch lining to replace the one I lost months ago, need to get the insulation off the rear arches, get my lower brace on (£20 brand new, bargain), get a new bumper bracket (bumper never had one since I bought it). Then it'll be onto bigger stuff, cage, valver, respray...

titchster

27th August 2009, 23:23

Rallye half doorcards are in, soon to be out, and replaced by carbon.

Couple of pics from Cadwell last week...
