  1. Cars going on the road next week. Got fia weld in seat mounts for the seats. Titan Harness's, oem strut brace which will also be a harness bar.

    Respray this month as well. Been putting it of until I had the oem bodykit in my hands

  2. Both myself, mark (nightspirit) and Craig all rattle canned ours Matt black back in the day. All came out really well actually. Need to try and dig up some pics.

    Ahh thats awesome! Mine will be with graffiti paint. Got a gazebo, lots of ductape, tarpaulins, extractor fan to make my own little DIY spray booth.

  3. Hammerite :D

    Haha used the stuff before on wheels and the inside of cars. its good and hard wearing stuff.

    Sorry if I am not updating much. Just been dishing money into loads of parts. Got the full optional bodykit from JDM. Should turn up next week. :D Also sourced some rare manual front windows with door cards etc. Will be more reliable and less problems.

  4. Are you going for that spray plastic dip stuff?

    Nah sod that rubbish! Done it on mates cars before. looks good for a few months then stone chips start getting to it.

    Its paint mate just not a normal style of paint. Very very hard wearing, durable, easy use. Down fall is its matte only (for a decent finish), you can get gloss but never looks good. Main reason is I dont really want to dis out for a full respray on a car which is just got abit of fun/track use.

  5. Whens it getting painted mate? :)

    Was meant to be this week but I decided to hold fire for abit due to the fact I should be focusing on college and not my car haha.

    The car is nearly prepped ready for its respray any dents taken out etc, rear boot smoothed, front bumper smoothed. Prepped the inside of the car to be painted white as well.

    Will be the first starlet that I know of to be painted with this method and colour. Frowned upon by alot of people but its a quick, easy, goodish finish which is what I need as its a track/fun car. If something happens makes repairing much easier.

  6. Been there mate. I done the exact same thing on mine for the first 4 months. Just buying parts instead of doing the work. But that said, makes you appreciate the car more when it is running.

    Agree there mate! Work is just slow at the moment as I am in my final year of my apprenticeship so I have been focusing on that.

  7. Been prepping the car for its respray all turbo stickers taken off, any dents taken our or filled lucky the car had no serious dents. Need to dewiper the rear and smooth the whoke. Also need to smooth the front bumper as the number plate was screwed to it.



    Took off the annoying lip on the inside of the Toms rep grille. Wasnt as hard as I though.

  8. I strongly advise to do an apprenticeship while you can mate! You are still living at home and at your at you will most likely get paid atleast 600 a month for the first year then by law you need to get paid minimum after the first year.Get into a trade while you can mate. I keep trying to bug my brother to do the same as hes 29 still living at home on a low wage etc.

    I personally vote get into the building its honestly not that hard work at all aslong as you are mechcanily minded. I am training to be a plumber right now but I plan to be a kitchen/bathroom fitter as its nearly as good money but its a job I love doing.

  10. Sorry dudes didnt mean to seem arsey aha!

    cheers for the kind comments and not being close minded loool

    But seriously i dont want it to handle like my white one, i could only hoon in that on perfectky smooth roads otherwise it tried to kill me!

    Im toying with the idea of 16s so i can get tyre and arch to look good without it being too close to the floor, but everyone seems to say 15s are the right choice driving feel wise

    Never running 13 inch wheels again tris, was fun while it lasted, theyd never put any power down either ahaha

    Is there any photos of your old one or a blog? Never seen it before mate.

    Its your car you do what you want with it. Make it your own and not someone elses.
