my mum bought me this after chritmas time for £300< back axel was gone and had no mot or tax> i undergone a project and heres what i have done

sandblasted a fresh vts axel new bearings and powerflex bushes
sandblasted calipers/ disk gaurds/ stuts/ wishbones/ arb/ and put polybuses in the wishbones and arb all sprayed also

undersealed the whole car

bought a saxsport exhaust

raceland 4-2-1

bmc induction kit

new pads all round

lowered 60 front and 70 rear

smoked headlights and rears

xr2 i recaro seats in the front on sparco subframes

made a boot build

thats all i can think of but there will be more also< i have a turbo kit to go on will get a pic of it but most of it is at my dads. all comments/ideas welcome and before the slating begins i hate the side skirts but cant be arsed to change them ( dimma concept ) if anyone wants them haha

Mate just a quick one, I've got the saxsport 2'' on mine, but my cat is attatched to my mani, whats the sound difference like without the car/with the 4-2-1?

[slimwiltaz]
