Yea me and rich found this out, i can get the fitting done on the cheap, just the tracking and balancing are gonna be costly. How much for the tracking Tom? I think mine is a bit out.

Thought id update the current status of my car, unfortunatly no pics but ill get some tommorow.

Ok so, at the moment its sitting on Anthrite VTS rims at the rear with toyo T1R's, black steelies up front. Freshly refurbished black drums on the back.

This saturday im getting the front struts replaced as the hubs are cross threaded, after that ill be able to fit the front VTS rims and mudflaps. The rear mudflaps have been devoured, ive had to drastically chop them as they were dragging on the ground.

Then future plans are induction kit, and inspired by Tom5190's backbox, im gonna have a crack at building a custom back box. Then who knows after that i think ill just keep it clean until FCS :D

Right here we go the big update before my front S wheels go on, which i should have images for tommorow afternoon :y:

So the pics i got are the car sitting on VTS wheel on the rear, i removed the splitter today also and fitted my mudflaps all round.

And the big update is my wacky exhaust. Custom installed it is a straight through centre silencer from a Toyota Yaris. So it now sounds raspy and pops quite a lot, yet sounds really deep like a decat :P

Also fitted a piperX air filter courtesy of sm02_saxo cheers mate! The zorst and air filter work in perfect harmony, ill get a video up eventually :P

Anyways here the images. Enjoy.








Cheers
Lewis

Lewis 11th April 2010 14:39

Final update i think today :'(

I feel ive came to an end, most likely ill do something else to the car but im thinking of selling up for something else. So im posting some images of how the car stands to date for you guys to enjoy.

Since the last update, ive got VTS wheels all round, custom exhaust tip, removed mud flaps and ive gave it a good clean and wax.

Thanks for looking :y:

Suppose, my neighbour suggested just putting it up for £1595 and if anyone is interested sell it and just see what happens. If a car i really like comes up i guess i could go for it. Mind you i think ill wait till after FCS :P

You interested in buying like? ;) Could do you a deal lol

dankzy 11th April 2010 15:25
