cheers mate ya its not to bad few bits that could do with sorting but for £850 cant complain

few updates

got a straight thought section to go on
pressed plates on order
and led bulbs for the number plate lights pics will be up when there all on

hey leigh, it's a piper on mine atm, 4 inch, want a slightly smaller one, 3.5 and inwardly rolled I think :)

good one on the new bits :y: look forward to pics

see i want the super sprint 2.5 mayb even the 2 want the car to still look as standerd as possible :y:


was going to go fit my new center section but woke up to yet more snow

I know, crazy out there isn't it :(

few updates

*led number plate lights fitted*
*new uk font pressed plates fitted*

still to fit my new straight thought pipe

few pics of new plates









cheers for looking :y:

spray them alloys gloss black! :D

no point they will be going at some point soon ;)

Car looks good, especially for that money. Speedline turini's would look really nice on it. Not keen on the LED number plate lights but thats just me. It looks a bit lower than 60mm on the back to me, but could just be the angle of the pics. I definatley recommend getting the supersprint race system, they sound really nice.

Nice car is that a split I see in the front grill(crack in plastic)


Steve.

hey mate ya would love speedline turinis loved them from my clios days, the back is defo lower than 60mm but cant really say what it is when i get the money and time the hight will be changed any way as want the car more useable, and got a straight thought pipe now and looking for a ss back box or looking to the ashely ones also to be a bit diffrent

yes it is mate need a new one but no job atm so mods any few and far between but will be sorted also there is a dent in the bonnet but will be replacing that with a fiberglass one

You looked at the one's on Kam Racin? Thats what i think i'll get eventually, i've got a supersprint race center section with at powerflow backbox atm. I love the way it looks, its an oval so looks nice a subtle. I'm thinking maybe getting one of the stainless steel one's off Kam then having the tail pipe chopped and an oval the same as mine put on.

ya been looking over kam quite a bit was going to get the race section but then got an alternative section what does the same job just a few mm smaller in dimaiter for £40 quid so just need a back box to join it to i quite like my standerd box as its round not oval so depends how it all sounds with that really but looking into itbs or a turbo converstion later down the lane so trying to keep costs down on bits which will only get replaced at some point

New plates look smart :y:
Need a new rear one myself :)

cheers the plates were £25 of ebay for front and back in uk font

and my old one was in 3 bits lol

I was going to ask you how much actually lol, is that for both or each?
Oh dear, how did you manage that lol?

yes thats for both one yellow and one white

and the old plate was like that when got it taped toghter lol but smashed the front one trying to get it off also as the screws had rusted thought and was no head on them n more so jsut broke it off and removed them and stuck the new ones on :y:

That's a good price :)
I think so. I see, thought you might have hit something lol

dowt ill be hitting anythink when its not insured im a good boy :) no driving till its all sorted and got a job

Fingers crossed you get a job soon then eh :)

lol ya cant wait have it back on road and be able to get things rolling with mods and a turbo converstion

few more quick updates started doing exhaust today but lost the light but as you can see my old center section has seen a lot better day few pics

Nice car, think that centre pipe was needed!

cheers mate and yes it defo was still need to fin fitting it to make sure it dont scrape as much as there a speed bump right outside my flat and always catches that as you can see from the damge

ouch iv not had a prob with mine not sure how much or if it has been lowered. but hit a speed bump 2day so think i might need to get 1 too

get in touch with spaco_tom i think it is mate he will do you a good deal ;) and ya since having the car its ok over some bumpes but then others its scrappes all the way along them

when you put that exhaust let us know how much you payed and where ya got it from and if the engine warning light comes on please mate. how much would you sell your wheels for?

the vtr rims? dunno mate tthey aint in best condtion but have 5 of them lol and will do dowt the warning light will come on as the sensor is fitted just before were this exhaust fits ill try and getyou a pic tomoz if you want ?

*update*

exhaust now on but jsut blows a bit so bit more sealing needed but now it smoking like a mother fucker but thats probs due to the de-cat and not had a run in a while but loads of water is building up in the back box so all good

next update altanator belt has now snapped again this is too its broke now so not good :(

Good one with the exhaust, bet you're glad that's on :)
not so good news about the belt though, how come it keeps breaking, is it too tight or something?

well exhaust still needs fixing on bit better blowing from the manifold but cant be ased jacked it up need some better fitting bolts to hold it toghter

and for belts no idea this was brand new off a mate and today jsut lost power streeing etc and was like wtf poped the bonnet and no belt haha found the belt half way down the lane

well over the last few weeks have noticed the sun roof has been looking so following the guide today i pulled off the headling and well here is what i found :( bad times







and then the next few pics mite explain why its been leaking so much and the headlineing is damp all over but socking wet on the right side wounder why.....






and here is a pic of the alt belt i manged to find after it come off the alt in the road

Shit!!! that's not good is it, my sunroof leaked a little last year from the handle, so fitted a new one, and it gathers a lot of moisture in there I noticed, but unfortunately yours looks more than that :(

Can't believe that alternator belt too, why on earth has it gone like that, maybe it's the wrong kind and didnt fit right, too loose?

Good luck with getting those sorted though :) feel for ya :(

yup no idea what going to do with the sunroof now still need to check the drain pipes but think its more to do with the rust spot as in were the water is coming from

and for the belt think my mate mite no of lined it u proper and has been rubbing and then pulled it self off so will have to make sure there is not another problem before fitting a new belt

how do i edit the title of my thread?

edit the first post mate.. then you can hit edit again for the title

cheers mate

well today i went out and pocked around at the rust today on the sunroof and well found a hole about the size of a 50p so after trying all sorts of things to cover the hole i lucky found a rubber grommet in my odds and sods box so pushed this into the hole and coverd with sealeant and tomoz will give it another going over in sealent and hope it works if not its got to be a new sun roof job :( bad times well here is some pics
