I spot a tubby engine cover & rev2 front splitter with colour coded side stripes and wheels.
Nice. Goes very nicely indeed.

cheers for the comments

not bad..... but they are the easy to spot changes :wink:
few more where they came from,

deleted front bumper badge
smoothed boot lock
smoothed ariel hole
debadged boot lid and painted rear badge
painted the grill mouth black
rev 3 third brake light

also been lowered and fully pollybushed, but im in the process of putting together an entire new chassis set up (rollbars, suspension, brakes)
then just need to rebuild the tubby engine i have in my garage and i can drop it in for some boosty fun :twisted:


rev 1s all the way indeed!!

Yeah looking fine, not sure on removing the front badge though... I wear mine with pride.
What have you done with the aerial now? Mine's despoilered so getting rid of the aerial is tempting 'cos I think it shows up even more on spoilerless cars. Either that or I'll install another on the opposite side to make it 'even' and hopefully maximise the signal. I too have lost the bootlid key entry but just maintain the inner 'pull' well.
What suspension plans have you got and what springs is it on at the mo.... it sits a nice height I think. I've just replaced most of my suspension but still have the bushes to do once I can locate a full set of TRDs.

Ps Keep on top of the geometry and get it redone every 18mths/2yrs or so once you've put the new stuff on.

i have an internal ariel mounted between the roof skin and roof liner, i have a remote boot release on my alarm too, such a simple thing but makes me smile lol,
as for suspension, i have a pair of whiteline roll bars, sbits custom droplinks, and trd top mounts, then probably blistein dampers and tein springs, (i have apexi springs on at the moment)
and then brakes, il probably keep it nice and simple with just rev 3 front calipers and some braided lines

geometry got set up a few weeks ago, but its all coming apart again over the winter to get it all powder coated

Mmm same suspension as mine save for the whitelines and likewise I'm wearing rev3 brakes all round with Goodrich lines. Very good mods. Ride isn't too harsh on 15s and car feels so much tauter, looks better too and stops ALOT better. Good choices. :thumleft:

R.

Might consider the aerial mod myself.

do it!! it cost me about £10 for an internal ariel at the local motorfactors, easy to fit (only fiddly bit is removing the headliner) and there doesnt seem to have been a major loss in reception quality either
