Sweet car mate Cannot wait to see the Wheel's on the car, By the way correct me if im wrong someone, But Jasma is not the make of the Exhaust it stands for Japanese Automotive Sports Muffler Association as my old man has it on his Exhaust and we was confused as thought it was make and couldn't find a company on the internet and then looked again and it was also stamped with 5zigen It's a good thing i suppose as if you have Jasma on your exhaust it mean's your exhaust is officially a JDM Exhaust lol! But basically... When an aftermarket exhaust is fitted to a car in japan if it meets Japanese Noise emissions regulations so that it can be used on the Street it gets stamped with a metal plate saying JASMA, If it does not meet the regulations for street use it is stamped with a metal plate saying JASMA RACE SPEC basically meaning it is above the Legal Noise emission level

Basically when i went lakeside last night i kept smelling clutch when pulling away from roundabouts and junctions but had Zero clutch slip (i was only pulling away from them casually) also when going into reverse i would have the clutch flat to the floor but it was still crunching going into gear, but going into 1st,2nd ect the biting point was half way up the pedal travel, I've also noticed that when i use the brake alot or come of motorways and slow down gently by staying on the brake for a longish time the brake's are not to good either, I'm not sure if the clutch is shagged or the Fluid just needs changing and needs the system bled through, I haven't looked but im guessing they have Hydraulic clutch's ??? Don't know if anyone has had same kind of problems at all but any Advice will help

Just watched it again!! LMAO!! at 13 seconds watch that strut hahaha!!!! by the way i saw a smashed mini and Subaru, what has the Evo got to do with it :S as for the Chinese man, Everybody was Kong fu fighting dadadada da!!
-
haha i drove up to the roundabouts to watch the drifting and got up and police were diverting everyone off onto the motorway, Because of this accident! Pissed me right off because i though the drifter's would have been out in Force that night lol Only thing i hate about lakeside but everyone goes there knowing there is a risk of getting involved in an accident! To be honest with the thousands of car's that go there im surprised there isn't loads of accident, I'm surprised no one has been seriously or fatally injured up there in fact, Last night it was so slippery aswel, At the drag strip my mate almost lost it in his GT4 pulling into the lorry park were it was damp and freezing up

Right i've been thinking this morning! I've gone abit of the idea of Mega Power, and I'm considering making it more an Averagely quick one (Around 160-170bhp) and focusing more on the way the Car handle's and Looks I've been driving it for a Week now and i personally think it is more then powerful enough for a FWD car and also for how i drive it, Next things i am going to do to the Car is Fit my BOV Get the rear windows tinted Get a different steering wheel (momo) Sort the engine bay out im thinking about getting the rocker cover powered coated the same colour as my wheels and go for a Polished engine bay with Blue hoses And get some Strut braces And then go from there really doing little bits if and when i feel like it, I'm also getting my old man to ask the Body shop were he got his car Resprayed, How much it would cost to get the car resprayed in Midnight Purple LP2 which is the colour my old man's car used to be... Or just get the whole car resprayed in it's original colour as i do quite like it, When it was in the sun yesterday it really looks like it has a tint of gold/bronze in it dunno if it is just me but you can see in this picture what i mean... Anyway I'm going to have a long long think about what i want to aim for with this car, but im pretty sure it will be to master the way the car handles
-
What colour glanza/Gt was you in mate ?? As i spotted a White Glanza with white wheels, A silver glanza that looked pretty standard, a White GT and also a Blue GT haha, And yes i drove up as was going to park on the roundabouts to see if any drifting was going on, and a new shape Mini had gone into a Subaru haha I left after that as had some random happenings with my clutch Cheers mate, And i've just put a tiny bit of negative camber on for Looks really didn't think it was really noticeable on the picture's to be honest
-
Got 1 more picture actually, Looks so mean i think Shame about the side being abit dirty
-
Yes i want a video to see what it sounds like! I also want a video of you smashing it to pieces
-
Also i went Thurrock tonight for the weekly cruise they have down there, and kept smelling something abit funny, Kept stopping and i couldn't smell it again started getting really paranoid haha, Pull over again and left it running, opened the bonnet and have a little smell and it smelt like it does when you ride on the clutch, Also noticed i was pushing the clutch flat to the floor and it was still grinding going into reverse, But every other gear the biting point is half way up the clutch travel! I really don't get it Cannot phone the garage up were i got it from yet as im not sure what is exactly the matter with it, Also when i let it cool down it sorts itself out, But im not thrashing it at all Think i may just whip the gearbox of tomorrow and see what the clutch is actually like as i've got nothing to do tomorrow
-
I'm not sure about the steering wheel everyone seems to have a little giggle about it haha I think some stupid jap may have put it on there thinking its really cool, Bit like the Rear parcel shelf speakers he/she put in haha And thanks everyone, I've got one problem though! I don't know what else i want to do to it, I'm so happy with the way it looks and drive's at the moment I'm quite happy to leave it as it is, I really wanted to go forged and get mega power but i don't even thrash this i thought i would but i've never turned it onto High boost not even to see what difference it make's and it's quick enough for a FWD car as it is i think, I think I'm just going to get the rear windows tinted slightly and Either get the little paint issue's sorted or get a Full respray in Midnight purple II, By the way everyone Meister Coilovers are fucking awesome!! I've got them all sorted now for how i want them and honestly they are great!! I've got them all on softest setting at the moment and it just feels like i've got lowering springs Compared to coilys i've had in other car's or what my mate's cars are like, I can drive it exactly how i could before i put them on and not have to worry about bumps! But even with it on softest setting there is still almost zero body roll Definitely a must buy for anyone looking to get some coilovers!

haha Cheers mate I am going to be looking for a Front lip but going to get the Skirts and passenger side door panel resprayed first Need to slow down on the spending to be honest, And i've realized how shocking my brakes are i think the Servo may be on its way out, Sometime my foot is pressed as hard down on the brake as possible and it doesn't really slow down lol!! Think im going to get a 4 Pot brake kit all round at some point
-
i'll be ordering some soon
-
It scrubs on the front though when i hit a bump , Few more picture's... Come out excellent considering they were all taken on my phone haha
-
Cheers Finally got some picture's this afternoon of the Whole car , Hope you like

First time at this

i just don't see how other country's have roads that are so smooth, and we have roads that are just constantly being filled and patched up
-
The roads are so appalling at the moment, And what happened just a minute ago has serious pee'd me off so i've got to have a moan!! There is this massive pot hole that has magically appeared down the high street were i live, I was going to the high street about 35mph on way home from the Medstone meet and BANG went straight over it and the whole car jumped of the ground!! Switched car off immediately incase i smashed the sump in luckily i didn't but have smashed the front underneath engine cover its now in 2 Piece's We all pay Road tax and what for!!? So annoying specially as i've just got my wheels and coilys on and just given them a right good smashing because the Government/Council don't do F**k all about the roads !!
-
Good to put some name's to face's tonight, Cannot wait for the next meet or the Pictures from tonight
-
Right then Coilovers and wheels are fitted, I'm unbelievably chuffed with how it looks, The wheels sit perfectly in the arches Coilover's went on fine with no hitches at all, Had to adjust the tracking though as it was 1" out haha! Got that done and took it up the road, it was scrubbing quite bad so quickly put it back into the garage whipped the front wheels of and adjusted it up about 1.2cm, took it back up the road and it was fine, Going to go to the Medstone meet tonight and see how it drives and adjust it tomorrow Sorry about the rubbish picture's but its the best i could do as was in a proper rush haha, I'll get some decent pictures up tomorrow Let me know what you think Please ;) As i said i will get some picture's uploaded tomorrow of the whole car so you can see it better ;) And once again i apologize for the shocking picture's haha
-
No wheels im going to put on tonight, but coilys most probably won't be unfortunately Unless i can somehow get my boss to let me get it on a ramp!! You will have to wait and see lol
-
It was meant to be march 2010 wasn't it ?? I gave up following all the information on it when they kept postponing it, It better be worth the bloody wait or I'm going to go mad! lol At-least it has crash damage this time and not just Bounce haha
