  1. Thats a good looking car Was my first choice also when i was looking for a new car.
  2. 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.
  3. 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.
  4. Not sure if this is listed already: Bulldozer Project - Arise Listened to this so much back in the day
  5. 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.
  6. If you ever sell the shiftknob / seat let me know. Happy to buy them back
  7. Thanks for the feedback, i'll pass it on to him
  8. Damn i love this movie: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7eKcIMTuM4c The sound of the cars and the drifting, sooo cool.
  9. 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.
  10. 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.
  11. 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:
  12. I love those Big End Rodders, really cool wheels. Nice shot too. Already a good start of this months competition.
  13. Only Starlets, or can i enter the Hachi?
  14. 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.
  15. 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
  16. 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 ;)
  17. Thanks I have about 7 hours to get to Hull. That should be enough hopefully.
  18. 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.
  19. Seems like a very cool project, good luck with it!
  20. Love the last picture with the skyline in front of you.
