Looks very nice! Curious to see what the new wheels will look like. -
Sweet car!
-
Wasn't included in the sale unfortunatly. I bought the rails from the seller though, so i can easily get a new one. Kevin isn't using the bride seat from my old Glanza, so i might buy that back. Thanks! I used a 'brillo pad' (not sure if that's the correct translation or if it is a US thing) to get the really black stuff off the wheel. So it's looking a lot better now. If i get the new wheels these can go to the polisher right away.

Will get some good shots when i have my plates Some pictures i made today of the engine and interior: That's one of the bad bits, the engine bay not sprayed white. Maybe a nice project for the future.

Not sure if this is listed already: Bulldozer Project - Arise Listened to this so much back in the day

Will do Got the wheels a little cleaner today. Might give it a go again tomorrow. Also checked what the sound is without the bung in the RS*R exhaust....damn it's so freaking loud. Will definitily get me in trouble with the cops around here. Yesterday i bought a replacement filter for the HKS filter, the one in there now looks so bad. I hope the new wheels get here this or next week, then i get some cheap tires and throw them on there for now. The Hayashi will go to someone that can polish them for me.

If you ever sell the shiftknob / seat let me know. Happy to buy them back

Thanks for the feedback, i'll pass it on to him

Damn i love this movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eKcIMTuM4c The sound of the cars and the drifting, sooo cool.

Anybody knows a good product to clean brake dust from wheels? I've tried one of the meguiars wheel cleaners today, but that only helped a bit. The previous owner didn't clean them too often i guess so the wheels are really dirty. Probably need a full polish eventually, but for now i like them as clean as possible.

8" isn't wide enough In the back the 10" with offset -25 aligns perfect with the arches. In the front i need 10" with about -10 i think to align it with the arch. The XXR wheels i ordered are 8" with offset 0, they will fall 7,5cm more in the arch then the hayashi's. But those are only temporary for drifting / mot.

I have to dig in the pictures i made last sunday because i can't make any new ones this month probably (no plates / insurance yet). Been playing around with black & white:

Congrats!

I love those Big End Rodders, really cool wheels. Nice shot too. Already a good start of this months competition.

Only Starlets, or can i enter the Hachi?

I promised to put up my friends myspace link up, so here it is: http://www.myspace.com/theundercat He just brought out his first record. If you have feedback i will pass it along to him. The first song has a very long build-up, not everybody's cup of tea i think.

Well it drives really like you went back 20 years in time Driving is hard work, it's noisy, the suspension is hard as hell, the steering is like driving a lorry. But it's al worth it if you step out the car and look at it Also the sound is amazing, i only been driving it with the bung in the exhaust, but even then it's sound so sweet. Tomorrow i'm ordering a set of xxr 002: They're really played out, but they're cheap and wide. Probably will use them as long as i not moved closer to work. I might need them for the Dutch MOT. I checked the body and it seems almost rust free so far. H

You should have let me know that you were in Hull, we could have meet up Car is now in Holland 10" wide wheels and no power steering = hell ;)
-
Thanks I have about 7 hours to get to Hull. That should be enough hopefully.
-
Me too Tomorrow is the big day. Hope my flight doesn't get cancelled or delayed with the snow and all. Then i still have to drive it from Birmingham to Hull. Hope the roads are ok.
