Woah, could it be update time again? after so long.... i think it is!
Well not much has happened recently. The Black R alloys are back on the car. Theyre semi temporary. Just had 4 new tyres so they will stay for a bit, but my plan is to change them for something bigger so i can get my big brakes eventually.
No pictures of the car as a whole at the moment, but things iv been working on recently include:
and some nice Kam Racing Exhaust bushes as mine appear to be worn
Should have ANOTHER!!! update later this afternoon.
Keep your eyes peeled for more

yeah it is. Just got a janspeed system lol
bit of an impulse to be honest. Jordysports fitted it for me. Decatted. It is REALLY nice with the decat, but im just finding it hard to like the sound. Its just a bit tooo raspy!
so might put the piper back on and get a decat for it i think.
More pictures to follow when i stop having iphone fails.

Picture time!
my older exhaust rubbers!
look at the state of that!
My new LED's for numberplate light
And then on a complete whim, i bought a new system!
Janspeed full decat system....
Big thanks to jordysports for all his help fitting it. Thing is i dont like the sound! its so nice at high revs on motorways, but it has an annoying tendancy to be loud in low revs around town. And its not to my taste.
Its for sale if anyone wants it!
Janspeed Exhaust For Sale
But then i got home and on a whim bought something else quite expensive. Will be here in next few days i hope!
BIG update to come!
And im going to put my old system back on with a decat which i should be getting soon fingers crossed
Then im broke for the month, so back to hard saving!

Mini Update:
Pipers back on now. Big thanks for jordysports for swapping my system not once but twice lol
second time didnt take any time at all, so as we were contemplating maccy d's we noticed that my inside morette lenses actually had bulbs behind. so we decided to wire them in.
After me making a rookie wiring error and blowing 2 fuses up we had them done...
...thing is i assumed the inside bulb was a sidelight, but as the picture below shows, its pretty bright! I was driving home in the dark and it seems brighter than the HID's. People also thought i was being a douche and driving around with my high beams on. (I wasnt driving with fogs on though!)
These are the bulbs that were in theyre, definately not a side light!
any ideas as i want some Xenon HID effect ones.
They are 55W bulbs if that helps!
Still waiting for my sub, not even had any contact from ebay guy.
Also waiting for another bug update which should be here in the next few days i hope!

might need your help sorting them out actually!
They look the nuts but i just cant use them at the moment as they blind people and over power my HID's! Get really hot too. Drove for 30mins with them on, had to wait hour til they were cold enough to touch!

Thanks mate. It was technically decated when i got it as the cat was Empty and it sounded nice then, but when i get a proper decate its going to sound spot on i think.
Yeah definately happy with the piper over the janspeed!
EDIT: Also update coming hopefully monday. Need to wait for the parcel office to be open

BIG UPDATE
Its been a while coming, but here it is. Had some more interest in the car recently so decided to snap up a bargain and buy some Team Dynamic Pro Race 1.2's
Got them half on at the moment as need some bigger spacers (30mm on the back if anyone has any?)
Completely changes the look. love em!

AFTER....
Just need to sort spacers this month and get the other things on iv been working on. Then i can get the 283mm brake conversion on again
Keep eyes peeled.
