looks very "apple'y"... but back on topic -- the car looks mint! What's it got as far as mods go? Enkei's Some sort of lowering springs?? Painted calipers!
-
I like the euro look -- on euro cars! And the jap look -- on jap cars... none of these "veilside style" kitted punto's you get going around! Can't see the pic in the first post so I can't really comment on it specifically. And Wullie that CorsaC is cool -- I do like it!

Looks good dave! P.S is that an apple tree?
-
I can't see the pic ;) this is happening a lot recently!

I love nova's! -
Try petrol to get the remaining sticky residue off.
-
I'm not really big into graphics and paint effects and stuff -- but if you thought it would look good then give it a go!
-
Did a quick chop for you since I was bored... Bumper chopped
-
That's why I'm still using the IPB default 2.1 theme -- because the popOrange theme doesn't have the same options...
-
Remeber though Ragger you can run a TD04 at lower boost -- and because it's a higher flowing turbo you'll still get more power than a CT9... And another thing forged pistons aren't the be-all and end-all I've seen holes melted through forged pistons too -- it's up to the tuner to get that part right! Forged rods on the other hand are always a good idea as you'll probably rev higher with a TD04 as the power band will be slightly higher.

Yep happy birthday! Hope you got some nice pressies
-
I've never seen a rev counter small enough to go in a pillar pod either phil. Aftermarket rev counters are usually built for the purpose of easy visibility -- hence why they're so big!
-
Awesome until you have to sit in traffic! They're murder for just pottering around town -- well from my experience of twinplate paddle clutches anyway!

What do you want done?
-
Took the DVLA about 2 months to send me the registration documents back for my car -- and that was me going to the office in glasgow and having them process it there and then.
-
I need a set of speedline winter rims...
-
There's a traders forum -- you'll need to contact Enzo regarding that. Hope they're competitive prices
-
Hmmm no pics for me??
-
Which will skin you about £300... There's loads of guides on the net if you fancied making your own gauge (basically the same as the gauge you're probably buying but it comes in a shiney round metal case) all it takes is a few LED's and some solder. My mate made one, it did work, but wasn't the most accurate -- as tested against a wideband sensor.

^^ That's good advice ^^
-
Plus with 2 or three Jap mags there's only so many cars you can feature -- They end up covering the same cars and features... Jap Performance and Banzai both wanted Pauls GT4... but JP wanted him to wait for 6 months, so he went with Banzai. Then JP phoned him back 6 months later and said they were still interested?? Saying that he had changed his set-up.

For instance, Joz has the NA front end with a custom splitter: And a Glanza'ish back end -- back bumper, lights, side skirts with the NA tailgate. -80mm, you are from the nova breed aren't you Probably the best value coilovers available right now are the D2's
-
No not really I had a look back in the extreme EP rides section for a pic of Shaun's old Glanza conversion -- He posted a pic of exactly how much the Glanza bonnet/bumper don't line up with the NA headlights. So if you want to get a Glanza front end you'll need the whole she'bang. It all mates perfectly well with the wings though. Also people putting the Glanza tail lights on their NA's need to cut a little into their rear bumpers -- but if you were going the whole conversion you'd have the Glanza bumper anyway. One of the easier options is to make a splitter and cut the NA front bumper -
-
Main differences are: The 4EFTE turbo engine The Bonnet Headlights Front Bumper Rear Bumper Tailgate Rear Lights Spoiler Colour Coded mirrors The Glanza has a sauge line instead of a bump strip

You can get most of the Garrett ones out of the online garrett catalogue. I had bookmarked a site with loads of compressore wheel and turbine wheel sizes and AR's for the various TD04 turbos aswell. I'l need to look it out -- might be on my bro's comp.
