Hello and welcome! If you become a paid members you can upload directly to here. Would like to see some snaps to be fair! -
Onwards and upwards. We're all waiting for the MRS :D

Don't think I am knocking it. Properly clever stuff what you're doing and I get your reasoning.
-
Thank you. It's been a hell of a slog!

What happened to this MOT hasn't been renewed in 6 years. Don't tell me it was scrapped.
-
I just left it at blue, taped off a 12V feed from the side light switch and left behind the clocks. Slight transformer hum when on, gets a little annoying lol. Shouldn't be too hard to figure out.
-
The indiglows were merely plug and play mate. Just take a 12V feed off the side light switch and you're laughing. The MOT tester I used ended up getting all his colleagues to come and have a look.

Wow, haven't kept this build up to date at all. Picking this up where it left off. After I fitted all the suspension components to the car back in August 2016, I removed the side skirts to find that the car was rotten down both sides, plus the floor was badly repaired on both rear passenger footwells. Incredibly disheartened by this, I was tempted to scrap/sell the car. I'm not a mechanic, I'm not a welder and funds are always tight. So this was frustrating to say the least. Laugh as you will, but it took the whole

Lol, the painters couldn't see the point in it all. They were like, but it's underneath the car. Where no one will see it. I was like, ahh but the MOT tester will see it. And they'll be so distracted by it all that they'll hopefully miss the fact the brakes don't work. lol. I got the rear beam done as well. And that's funny as the car bops up and down on the road it shows it's rear end It's all pointless though. Should have spent the money on a nice mid spoiler likes yours.
-
Yeah I hear you. Nah man I'm busy building a bike at the moment so the little Starlet has been sat looking sorry for itself :(
-
Haha, I think me and you are in to the scene more than him lol. It's good to see you've returned with full force though. Decimating this build on the car. Doing a fantastic job. Keep it up.
-
Yeah that's wicked. I would love to get one of those. I know you went all out on a genuine one, but personally not phased if I got a pattern one. Props to you though Spence. Car is looking lovely! My brother recently got the Ol Mjz2666 MOT'd and out back on the road. He was going to sell it, then drove it and decided it was worth keeping! Cracking motor.
-
Like this is really impressive, but no way are these going to be reliable? Surely not. I'm not that kind of engineer but this looks a tad on the dodgey side to be road legal lol. Loving the engineering though, please keep us posted!
-
Got the duck tail spoiler fitted yet? Pictures...
-
I think I got mine from Import Car Parts. IIRC they were Koyo, which are obviously decent.

Hello and welcome!
-
Actually drove the car for more than five minutes with the windows up today, yeah sorry my bad it's pretty unbearable. If I actually used this car I'm not sure I'd cope lol. But it's purely a weekend warrior so I ain't complaining. Just ignore my previous comments lol. No juddering on down shifts though.
-
Mate they look mental lol!
-
All my polybushes are brand new, although fitted two years ago I've done about 100 miles on them no issues. Although I do have the tunes on most of the time and the windows down so probably why I don't notice lol
-
Tracking and alignment done? You're not purposely crashing into pot holes are you? Packing the bearings full of grease with the dust shield? No debris getting in.
-
Everything is polybushed on my car and I don't find it that bad. Definitely doesn't judder on down shift. Not to an extent that causes concern. When I started my car up for the first time in three years, the dash was bouncing through the windshield (like really bad). But it's stopped doing that now, I guess it was just the amount of rust on the flywheel. My mate's Impreza RA is rose jointed everywhere and it isn't that bad.
-
Yes mate, they are some lovely parts you have there!
-
What will you be moving on to?

Very sweet bud!
