riko666 Posted February 23, 2008 Share Posted February 23, 2008 I prefer 4 spokes....make a car look less of a toy. I have a fascination for the Advan 3-spokes (damn you MJ), but I'd never ever have them Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted February 23, 2008 Author Share Posted February 23, 2008 Advan 3 spokes ftw. Watch this space. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted February 28, 2008 Author Share Posted February 28, 2008 Finally got my Blitz induction kit today, cheers Alex.Then I went out and bought a metre of aluminium air feed pipingGot that all in placePeeking through the front for nice cold air ;)I planned on making two air feeds but didn't really have room for two alumium pipes, so I reused the airbox intake pipeI ran out of materials when wrapping the plastic pipe though so I'll have to finish it off some other time!Overall engine bay...

Sparky Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 Looks neat mate Need to get mine fitted ;) Quote Link to post Share on other sites
RobSR Posted February 28, 2008 Share Posted February 28, 2008 looks good that mate ;)Rob Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Idrees Posted March 1, 2008 Author Share Posted March 1, 2008 Finished wrapping the intake pipe last nightIt doesn't look 100% perfect but I'm happy with it. ;)I also prepped and primed my spare fuel rail, ready for a nice lick of paint.I went out today to rewire the front foglights up (off a switch and get all the connections soldered) but everytime the foglights are connected the headunit cuts out. Stupid f*uckin car with its gay electrics. I need to get it to an electrician because 50% of the electrics are shagged, but I need to wait for my new wheels. It scrapes the floor far too much on the 13s so I can't really get it to someones garage to get it sorted.I was also planning on changing all the fluids in the next few weeks becuase I've had the car parked almost a year and the only things that have been replaced are the spark plugs and engine oil. Can't do much in this horrible weather though so I'm just gonna wait. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted March 3, 2008 Author Share Posted March 3, 2008 Small updateAs some of you may have read in the other thread, my brother accidently tried to start my car yesterday while it was in gear which broke the front end a little :angry:The headlight bracket broke, headlight screw snapped, headlight motor broke, bumper bracket got bent and the bonnet is also slightly bent in from the front. So, last night I stripped the front end of the car (again!).I have ordered a new headlight along with the screw, and I think I have a spare motor lying around somewhere so I'm going to try and stick that on it. While the bumpers off I might give it in to a bodyshop to finish the smoothing off and get it resprayed because I simply have no time for it. I'm not going to attemp to straighten the bonnet myself so that will definitely be left to the professionals.The drivers door is also bent around the window because someone tried to nick the car (gutted) and the black paint has cracked. I'm guessing that will need to get straightened and resprayed too so I'll just leave that to the bodyshop aswell.I really did want the car to be MOT'd by now and ready for the VIC check but it doesn't look like that will be happening soon, oh well. I need all the electrics sorted too yet (before the MOT) because its all dodgy. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
