so...form over function? :harhar: ok. all the best with your choice John, i hear good things about Zisco and Racetech. Phil.

hats off to u dude, u've put in some serious effort!! awesome transformation!!! i wish all 3 of you much happiness in your pad dude! Phil.

what about a really good port job on a standard one, always an option. Phil.

lookin very clean and tidy dude! top work!! also, bonnet raisers are for sexual people! Phil.

very kind of u to compliment our three builds buddy, that means a great deal. i always seek to draw inspiration from UKSC and her members, if I have given a little of that back to some of you then its the least I can do for outright robbing all your ideas and im pleased to have been able to inspire you dude. Phil.

yes they did, they did a Momo black leather steering wheel for the GTs, see my brothers car for an example of this. as for the blue interior, im not sure they were so much an option as just not so common, but Jay will be able to clarify this. Phil.

uber! Phil.

i think to keep this OEM for steve we shouldnt include the TRD parts as they had their own catalogue, so not technically OEM options per se. Phil.

crystal lights weren't an option to the best of my knowledge, they were a feature of the later models. Phil.

as scotish said, there were options for non smokers, for example, there was a non-smoking ash tray that was felt lined for coins, myself and SiCaln have them. and yes there were rear sunvisors, Glanza Jim has one in his silver S. i cant do pics because im in work, I've also tried to keep all my answers as EP82 specific as that is what was requested. rear fog light was not an option no as they are not required in Japan, those are added upon import to the UK. along with the roof rack there was a number of accompanying options, such as the ski holder and possibly a bicycle one. there were also additional din cup holders/storage boxes. I've never seen one without a cig lighter, more pics please scottish! Phil.

my car is being a prick bitch for no reason and im fed up with it at the minute, and im fairly sure Jay is sick looking at it every weekend too. but UKSC aint going anywhere. and even if it did become too much for me to tolerate i'd probably just SORN it rather than sell it. dont panic man, UKSC is stayin! Phil.

no but I've considered taking it off the road for a while. Phil.

clean box, footwell illumination, sunroof deflector, parking pole, parking lamps (on front wings), recaro interior, remote central locking, roof rack. im sure theres more but thats a start from me. Phil.

a bin liner sized bag of potential!!!! nice one gents! Phil.

awesome dude! Phil.

shelf brackets in EPs FTW! Phil.

mate, i am 100% feeling you. 6 or 7 times in 2 months I've had to go to Jays to have something fixed, and the damn thing still isnt MOT worthy. it just fucks u right off when u plumb so much effort into it, u dont treat it like shit, u try to look after it, and it still acts like a wanker for no reason. i keep finding myself looking at FR Leons too, only the current shape ones, with a BTCC OEM kit, diesel. its so easy to fall out of love with them, but when they do play ball, its easy to fall right back in love. but with home ownership becoming something of a serious consideration, the constant spending on repairs and stupid things has to come to an end, it simply cant go on. i hope u come to a decision that makes u happy buddy! Phil.

^^^^ditto, I've been seein alot of these gents, and the cars, and the update for this is gonna rock! Phil.

simply awesome work my friend!!! really loving this project!!!! plaque looks well funky! keep it up dood! Phil.

only if something happens. she is more unique at the front with the crystal lights, late spec indicators, smoothed bumper and TTE lip. i couldnt part with the lip. thats crazy talk. Phil.

Joel, that didnt go ahead dude, i'll tell ya later. right, looks like i'll have to either order one off autobahn88 or ask ECC to get me one. joys. cheers buddy. Phil.

some say, he and i are one and the same person.... Phi-zo. Phil.

thats just it, the fucker is meant to be done, this shit just keeps going in circles. Phil.

i have some spare adjusters somewhere that I think Liam D sent me years ago. and Joel was phoning places for me today on the hunt for a replacement bulb. i have faith in him. its goin to Jay's for the 6th time in 8 weeks i think on saturday, think I've spent way over £100 on fuel just going to his in 2 months. patience is wearing thin now tbh, everytime i looks on the up something stupid happens! i mean, the engine is fine, its running perfectly fine, its just the ancillaries are being fucking dicks for no reason. im tempted to put it away, i really am. Just SORN it, buy a diesel and maybe look at it in 6 months. fuckin fed up. Phil.

perfect for a restoration job as the damage doesnt extend beyond the front end. i can safely say i have never seen shelf brackets in a car before. that takes pikey cultchy to a whole new level! Phil.
