Bet that blows like a MOFO

Its actually not too bad, considering the flexi is completely snapped aha, but its straight through after the cat anyway so its bloody loud already, ans thats only because the bike can ive got doesnt fit under the car

do a side exit like a lot of the starlets on here, in front of the front wheels. save the weight and keeps it away from speedbumps!

na thatll mess up the map having no cat, be way to loud, and sow with no back pressure aha!

This would look sick with a roof rack on it

I did look into it but theyre pretty expensive tbh!

And i tried on some wheels a mates selling, definitley need 16s for this

15x8.25 xxr 527s et0

I hate the massive tyres so 16s are a must

Sadly still driving this piece! Just a few pics, insurance payed for the year so my starlet saving fund properly starts now



Where i ruined the flexi a straight bit of pipe got welded in, my mates welds are better than rovers...



423FCFD1-346B-4B38-AFA3-4B6907277917_zps



Whacked some bracing on the new one so it cant snap again aha



Bought a pair of zender wheels, went out in the snow

Bought these beemer wheels for the starlet ages ago, they finally have a use!



BF81A204-9705-4602-A8BC-451066D470A0_zps


Also coloured the writing on the tyres in for maximum racecar



And my tradition of having a splitter with a gap in the middle...



A2E7B703-0CCC-4FCB-87AE-44B31066DD19_zps



Other than that loads of annoying little bits have gone wrong, most got bodged, really trying to not spend any money on it!



Gt turbo/Glanza time asap!

Also finally got the horns wired up, put the two red ones off the starlet on and wired them and the standard ones up with all seperate 12v feeds, theyre pretty bloody loud

Inside

Finally tapped the gearstick so i could put my tegiwa extender and gearknob in



F0E38762-FDA0-4F74-A217-53205F7CA45D_zps



And the horn button, and the 'repair' when the inside door handle broke aha!

The outside door handles are held on with cable ties....

Well took the Rover all the way to the Isle of Wight for the weekend, mostly survived the trip.

Made the bumper quick release to get on and off the ferry

Also did the lights yellow, and made the indicators orange.

On the ferry

On the island, the roads are shocking there!

And lost an arch liner at 90 on the way home, left a slight ding in the wing unfortunately...

758BDFA0-B050-4789-BF0D-E51EFB65C9A3_zps

Overall, it did alright on the long drive, for a rover.

Now thinking of doing open bottom wings, and my bumper canards have just turned up...

So after a brief stint in a rover convertible I managed to buy this back off the guy I sold it to, so it's now my daily, seen as the starlets smoking still.
