Amjad Posted February 26, 2011 Share Posted February 26, 2011 Looks nice and clean dude, nice to see another local member too ;)Check out Pro-Speed in Cardiff for exhaust, they did an awesome job on my NA and they've done a few Glanzas and GTs. Go for some Meister Coilies, easily the best rated out there for our cars! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan33hks Posted February 26, 2011 Author Share Posted February 26, 2011 Thanks lads ;)Yeah ive got my name down for the welsh meet. I had my subaru justy exhaust done at prospeed and that was pretty good to be fair. Obviously it isnt going to compete with the quality of the high name brands but it was made exactly how i wanted so i was happy and will probs go back there for this one. Only cost 250 from cat back aswell so was alot cheaper too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lukEp Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 Very nice mate, there's not many sets of the original wheels about so don't go selling/changing them in a rush, I regard myself lucky to have got a set off another member. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

lukEp Posted March 13, 2011 Share Posted March 13, 2011 I use my set as winter wheels as the skinny tires cut through the snow really well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
