that ish needs to be gone josh
full track tbh

i will not allow you to fit carpet!!

Josh/toad.... carbon mirror caps you say?


Josh - they the 266mm 4pots that were on an xsi until recently?

270mm Ry yeah! Oh bugger, you beat us both to it! Any close ups?

Alex - I think i'll always have a carpet, ill just cut it up or get a lightweight one like Matt has in his 205! The inside of the car WILL be resprayed WHEN the cage goes in over next winter :D

Ill take my camera to alexs if i remember today and try and get close ups.

So you can run small wheels with the brakes yo!

Thought you had to get bigger torsion bars. I just can't believe how darn expensive they are! :(

Ryan, I don't see CF mirror caps. :ponder:

hmmm i may let you off if its just a tiny bit of carpet
but persoanlly i see no point lol (as with most of the interior lol)

ryan any excuse to be a whore

Lucky I took some more pics of them today then ;)

Close ups as asked josh, they need a polish but i cant be fucked.

Ah, very nice. ;)

For the VTS they only cover the top half, I see... Look spont on. :y:

alex fitted them. doesnt bother me either way, just thought as you two ladies were arguing over who was copying whos shoppinglist id annoy :P

lovely motor mate :)

very nice ryan ;) Toad thats the exact reason i bought 106 mirrors, for more carbon ;)

Nice indeeed..

You nutter! lol.

Ha ha gota be done mr Toad ;)

Lol at the above! Thanks for the pic's Ry, they look great! Dad's currently sorting me some new wheel bearings while the hunt for some springs and top mounts from AST is well on the way!

As soon as i get the springs and top mounts the suspension will be built up and put back on, also the BTB can then be fitted as well but thats a few weeks or so away yet! Hoping for an update very soon on the seat department so keep your eyes peeled :D

making good progress atm dude :) I was talking with Sam and I think I'm buying your current strut legs to use to build my new coilovers on.

last time I seen your car it looked like shrek aswell lol under the mammoth car cover.

mmm lightweight seats this time ey?? so iv heard anyways lol

You think new wheel bearings are good idea for me, even though mine are OK? I'm going for new droplinks for sure anyway.

Ah yeah that cover, its hopefully doing a good job protecting the motor while im away :D

Thats fine to use my struts pal as you know! Lightweight seats indeed, ive hopefully got an update coming for you guys on that front shortly...

Toad - yes i would if i was you mate, you might as well while you have the struts off - make sure you measure them very precisely tho to make sure you get the right ones!

josh
get the seats now you pleb

Thanks JP. Surely my chassis # will get me the right part from Pug...

Its just the suppliers mate, its completely out of 'our' hands!

Toad - ah yes maybe for yours, but mines a westcoast with some mark 1 parts and some mark 2 parts! Also are you going to be using your struts with the ast's? or a replacement set - they might not be the same bearing size as your currently struts!

I was thinking my current ones would be fine, ya? Or do you know something I don't?

Yeah your current struts should be fine Toad mate!

Right another update for you - Firstly a VERY special mention to DannyGti for going to collect these for me :D













I think you'll agree they look awesome - I cant wait to try them out!! :D

Yeah they should, just a bit better ;) Lol

HUGE thanks for going to collect them mate, cant thank you enough!

They do look very very nice and i cant wait for you to be sitting next to me half way round the Nurburgring in the seats this summer (My winter Lol) :D

Yes mate thats why... Cheers!

Cheers Sam you sneaky git - i didnt even see the white writing untill i re-read it at work on my mates iphone!

Your not borrowing them, no way :P If i do get a cage / spraying interior it will be after the nurburgring anyway, so crack on with fitting now bud!

The Kevlar ones like mine are 894quid for the pair + Subframes + I had the extra hard wearing pads added where the wear and tear normally occurs so cost me just over that!You can see / read more here

Imola S's arent bad either, i've sat in Dannys and they hold you in very well as well...
