SnaRe - Posi Furio - Angels Fitted
Well it's about time I started one. Newqs36 made me do it!
Got the car on the 11th of March, a nice 293 mile drive from Newquay to Hertfordshire. The car was previously owned by a sax-p member called Thunter18, very nice bloke.
Here's how she stood the day I bought her.
- Lowered 50mm all 'round
- VTR alloys
- Supersprint centre pipe and back box
- General interior and exterior badge spraying.
- JBL amp and Sub, Ripspeed DVD/MP3 player. (I wouldn't ask me much about any of the sound system, as Tom was explaining it, it sort of just flew straight over my head.)
Today I did my first modification and took the wheels off to paint the rear brake drums and callipers.
Comments, advice and criticism is more than welcome.

I am still debating on going blue/yellow theme, but I've just painted them to see the appearance atm. Looks better than rust

Lowered on Apex Sport kit.
Future plans are of somewhat going to be a slow process. However I'm planning on:
- Lenso BSX in white
- 4-2-1 Mani
- BMC enclosed induction kit.
Few simple little things at the moment.

Cheers mate. The back box is a SS, I'd recommend it along with the centre pipe, it has a great sound to it. Not to loud but put the extra bit of throttle on and it's a low pitch mellow "pawwp" Haha. Newqs36 has it too with decat and it sounds sweet!

Time for an update.
Today I started on my wheel refurbishment. With the help of Newqs36, two wheels complete so far, plan on doing one tomorrow and then the last one sunday.
Purchased some angel eyes today and will receive them soon. Got an 85mm blue Air duct on its way for my cold air feed, and some 3mm blue rim tape for the wheels, (however I'm now debating the rim tape...)
