Hello UKSO a few of you's may know me already as ive been on here now 5 years. I havent put up a build thread previously as my little V has been garaged for 5 years and has probably been on the road a few months in the years that ive owned it. Well this year im getting my ass into gear and getting it finished to the way i want it. Heres a few pictures of it when I first bought it.

I drove the car for about 4 months then i decided to stupidly buy a BEE-R and then this happened

to say the least it wasnt long till the Bee-R got ripped out and sold on.


I managed to source a new engine the following day and get it put into the car at the weekend.


A few pictures of the old engine and the car up on the lift.

When the new engine was put in i decided to take the car off the road a few weeks later (2009)




Theres a few plans for it this year so i will try to keep this updated regularly.

I always loved the look of JAM Glanza's so i decided to get the kit well not the whole kit yet. So far i have Genuine JAM Skirts and a Rep Back bumper.


Im just waiting on a rear spoiler and 98spec front bumper and lip. It will all come eventually.

I havent updated this in a while, due to being so busy at work.



But i have the engine out and getting a stock rebuild as we speak. And the other engine in due time will get forged when i get my finger out and buy the pistons.



While the engine was out i decided to give the bay a clean and to fit my tuning developments ABS removal kit. Makes the bay look cleaner.


Before

And I also got the first ever Godzilla Kit for CT9 frame (according to Sacha)


As usual the WEPR kits are awesome, the pictures dont do justice.
