  1. i have 1 of them non smoking ash trays and armrest, crystal lights, charchoal carpets, full mat set and a few other bits n bobs by the way the jdm flare wasnt an optional extra its a legal requirment to have 1 in your car in japan
  2. thanks lads much better than they wer before
  3. just took the masking off the lips they look shit hot but I've taken a little bit of the blue paint off ! need to go sort it lol not too fussed with these wheels anyway, planning on buying a new set for summer! EDIT - sorted them best i could, its a little uneven where it chipped but fuck it! with the state of the roads in glasgow im sure theyl see a few more what do you think of them? before and after
  4. almost finished! just another rub down and a few coats of laquer to go! theyre coming out really well
  5. i had th same problem with 1 of my hybrids rotating like that when it was warm i just braced it and never had a problem again. weve all been in your position at some point with these cars, i went through 2 hybrids and a ct9, a head gasket then bottom end failure in the space of 6 months i paid a lot of money sorting it just to sell it on because i couldnt go through with breaking it to quote liam "starlets really are pricks!"
  6. didnt you leave the actuator connected to the wastegate arm while trying to undo the nut? as that would make the whole arm spin. its an easy job to remove the actuator but you shouldnt need to
  7. great lad to deal with even dropped the bonnet off to me! thanks mate!
  8. i think im going to paint the centers black as that was the original plan and will look better with the D1 nuts wooooo another piece to the puzzle off to toyota for headlights next week then ill get my fenders and varis bumper painted and fit the front end! cant wait niether can my nighbours to get the parts are out of the close haha will pm you as soon as the lights come off amjad;)

  12. i like the blue, my camera fne doesnt do it justice. Its vauxhall arden blue
  13. ive had white wheels mate they wer a bitch to keep clean plus not a fan of white on silver tbh and im planning on painting the bay blue when i do the conversion anyway
  14. im swinging towards doing the centres black as i think the nuts will just be a bit much all blue aswell
  15. pretty shit mate:( but at the end of the day its your car now you should have had a good look over everything before you swapped good luck with it buddy hope you get it sorted
  16. ok small update, i started on the wheels today. Was planning on doing the lips blue and the spokes black masked off and primered lips done then when doing the last 1 i wondered what theyd be like all blue i quite like them like that but i have blue D1 nuts and think it'd be a bit much. what do you think?
  17. i wish id held out for this 1! i wanted a red 1 from the start lol
  18. the C clip on the actuator comes off easily but its very easy to lose so be carefull somtimes it just pings away and you wont find it. when thats off loosen the bolt and shorten the actuator arm a little bit at a time and keep an eye on your boost guage
  19. for the third time? i would be going back to them but without the car! go elsewhere mate
  20. welcome aboard
  21. ahh finaly got it built then! nice 1 buddy! need to pop over and see it soon! u still want that bride seat rail?

  23. nah it wont fuck it mate. didnt you replace the gaskets when you changed the mani? it isnt costly to fix mate gaskets are pretty cheap 30 quid or so
  24. well done mate, its a great feeling passing your test drive safe!
  25. paypal is a joke, mines done the same a while back and ive confirmed my details again and again and its still the same! i also tried to refund some1 on here money on 3 occasions and it wouldnt work! then i got 3 bank charges because they tried to take the money from my bank account instead of my paypal account which had enough funds!
