Finally started again! Ended up scrapping my vtr and salvaging as much of the mods as i could..


Annddd.. got myself this


Picked it up a few weeks ago! so happy with the extra 8v's!

Heres a quick spec list that came on the add for the car!
-Enclosed induction kit
-Toyo proxies all round
-306 gti 283mm brake setup
-Pugsport exhaust system
-4-2-1 manifold
-OZ Racing super turismo alloys
-Lowered 45mm all round with spax dampers and springs
-OMP upper strut brace( i removed as it was bent)
-White twin fan setup
-Baker BM lower engine mount
-Exceedy clutch kit



I haven't got very good pics atm but will try update more tomorrow!



Anyways.. had a few problems.. came out to find the car sitting in a puddle of gearbox oil.. so had to find a new box!




Picked one up fairly quickly! while fitting it.. the engine mount decided to snap! resulting in my engine sitting on the floor




While that was off.. i thought i solve my overheating problems.. got myself a Nissens radiator! and fitted that




I ended up having a few more problems.. such a the top rad hose with bleed nipple on.. that burst.. suchhh a chore getting to it!


Little bit more to add.. had some goodies in the post the other day! these came along with my new rad!



Got a few to many ties.. but they may come in handy!
Also went and picked a set of these up today! SO happy with them!
