ste91 Posted December 1, 2009 Author Share Posted December 1, 2009 Cheers for the comments. Will have to get it cleaned and polished as soon as we get a half decent day where it's not pissing down or freezing cold but not much chance of that these days. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
glanza179 Posted December 1, 2009 Share Posted December 1, 2009 looks a well tidy motoe matefew common niggles with winter here you may want to check, rear lights fill with water and then fill the boot, easy fix just pop them out put some rubber regenerator on the seals and drop em back in,same problem at the top of the boot where the rear wash wipe is, again can be fixed with a little vasaline round the sealJim Quote Link to post Share on other sites

It's got the typical leaky bootlid and ripped front seats (I'm on the lookout for some good condition ones), aswell as some stupid things like someone has painted ONE of the calipers red... lolBut I think I got it at a decent price and it will be a well sorted car once the little jobs are fixed.

BlackRocket Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Looks neat mate, I nearly bought one before I got my Glanza but was put off by ropey examples and good ones wanting too much money in my opinionManifold and buddyclub exhaust mate - will sound MENTAL on VTECSteve Quote Link to post Share on other sites
addz Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 Spoon or scorpion exhaust for me Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ste91 Posted December 2, 2009 Author Share Posted December 2, 2009 Apparently it used to have a skunk2 exhaust system on there, but was replaced with another system because it was too loud! ;)Which I suppose is a good thing really as it's even got one of those screw in silencers in the backbox and it's still fairly loud once you hit the pedal, I'm not sure the neighbours would appreciate it if it was any louder. It's really nice and easy to drive though, infact it feels very similar to a Starlet, the pedal layout is the same, the gearbox feels similar, the only thing is it's got keep-fit steering which will probably take some getting used to after being able to turn the wheel with one finger on the Starlet. ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Sparky Posted December 2, 2009 Share Posted December 2, 2009 As per facebook mate when I seen it I was like ;)That looks fucking awsome!!Sooo nice and fresh looking, all the best with it Quote Link to post Share on other sites

ste91 Posted December 10, 2009 Author Share Posted December 10, 2009 Might have a change of plan, not definate yet but I'm thinking about garaging the CRX for 6 months as it will be ALOT cheaper to insure when I'm 19, and buying a cheap Starlet as a run around until then. While it's garaged if I end up getting a decent job and have some spare money I'm considering polybushes all round, bigger brakes, coilovers, strut braces, etc... basically sort the handling and then a couple of other things like exhaust manifold.Just trying to find somewhere local to keep it and then a cheap Starlet, hopefully I'll find both before Christmas then I'll be sorted.
