ste91 Posted October 8, 2008 Share Posted October 8, 2008 Nice Much better than before, what's up with the back end though it looks really low? Also, I think late spec glanza lights would look better than Reflets on green Oh and a TTE/Sportif spoiler would also be a good addition. What's the Excedy clutch like? I had no idea you had one lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted October 8, 2008 Author Share Posted October 8, 2008 its the way i parked him.....im in search of a tte spoiler toothe clutch is well good its bedded in well but when taking off in first it sometimes requires a little more gas mabe its me? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Galliano Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 nice way of re-locating the air filter she looks good mate, i do actually quite like the dark green now ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 lol, it will just have a panel filter in it now also the top of a glanza air box with the brace sitting nicely over it Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nic1.3 Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Hey man nice work on the paint marks, I know well how much of a bitch they are to remove.like the speedlines and i kinda agree with the glanza lights they may suit the colour better, but no harm in being brave either.maybe a nice simple splitter like a laguna splitter and I think that it would well sweet.Nic Quote Link to post Share on other sites
nic1.3 Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 OOH alsoif you fancy cleaning up your rear then id highly recommend changing to a Fiat punto rear wiper,Its one piece black plastic and looks sweet and alot neater. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Asad Posted October 9, 2008 Author Share Posted October 9, 2008 is it the rear lights you guys suggested to change or the front end? if i went for the glanza front it would be too expensive and after a while the glanza headlights would look naff whereas the NA ones r glass so are better in the long run.....as for the rear wiper its waaaay down on the list lol panel filter now comming on saturday Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Big_T-SR Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 Nice, but i was looking at that scratch.. it looks like someone took one of those wizzy pen thingies to it..but anyways nice mods so far, the speedlines really do suit it well, good job, keep it up bud.

nic1.3 Posted October 9, 2008 Share Posted October 9, 2008 ya mate meant the rear lights. as for the wiper...its one of those little things.As for getting panel filter I got a TRD one and it makes a subtle difference and doesn't affect ecomony hardly at all, so the k N one should work a treat.
