  1. I’ve started the preparation for Japfest 2 with a few things My wheels looked seriously sorry for themselves, from a distance they looked fine but up close they were brutal. Wheels must have been white before I bought them as there were stone chips all over showing the white paint underneath, one of the wheels was heavily pitted and I tried everything to sort it. So sent the wheels off for a refurb and got some new centre caps and some genuine D1 Spec Wheel nuts. Here’s the finished article of the refurbished wheels, car n
  2. Is there any modification required for hdi short route piping to fit my autobahn intercooler Thanks in advance
  3. Item For Sale: Glanza HKS Super Drager back box Item Condition & Description: The exhaust is used the back box itself is in reasonable condition but could do with a good clean. The pipe from the back box is corroded and could really do with being replaced, this is just because its a jap exhaust and the salty roads here eat them. The back box has a small dint underneath due to the height I run my car.

  4. I had a siezed rear caliper but replaced it and the new caliper had no clips and didn't realise at the time. The pads only rattle at low speeds but if I put my handbrake on 2 clicks it stops the rattling but it's obviously braking the rear wheels. The pads stop rattling as as soon as I touch the brakes. It's only on the side I replaced the caliper and have no idea where I put the clips as there not in the old caliper.

  11. I've finally got my arse into gear after owning the car for so long and now is the time for more boost. After my plans being put on hold with the smoking turbo, I bought a second hand turbo and then just had to wait for some good weather to do the work. Car performance wise is pretty much standard apart from; uPrated leads, NGK Iridium plugs, Japspeed exhaust, HKS dump valve. I did have pictures of the parts but there on another computer So Thursday I started to set about carrying out the following Removing aircon Removing standard turbo, manifold and cat Fitting shorter power steering p
  12. My car was looking a little sorry for itself today in the sunlight so had to give it a wash and freshen up my headlights. They were getting a little too yellow. My plans to fit my after market parts are on hold again as my turbo has started smoking on idle. He's a few pictures of the headlight transformation. I only used Megiaurs Scratch x and then some Nielsen polish. Made a hell of a difference. I'm going to flat them down and polish them at some point.

  16. Im possibly getting a back box off a apexi system. It is 2.5 inch so it might fit just not sure on the angle of the flange that's all
  17. I have a japspeed exhaust system and was wondering if it was possible to change the backbox to another alternative aftermarket backbox. If so what backboxes will fit the japspeed system?
