Beastmode panda Posted November 9, 2014 Author Share Posted November 9, 2014 Picking it up on Tuesday, which is a little sooner than first planned which was the 16th. I got insured today on it, so that's all sorted. Then will do tax online tues morn before I go collect it. Will be taking my OMP 300mm wheel to put on immediately for the drive home, before fuck driving with that piece of shit one that's on there now haha. Also picked up some brand new grid drifts in 17x9j all round. I''ve never owned wheels of this size, but holy fucking shit they are big and girthy!! So I picked them up off a friend for £500 with tyres lol. Be stupid to say no, although not jdmy0 wheels, still, cant go wrong with grid drifts IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Beastmode panda Posted November 11, 2014 Author Share Posted November 11, 2014 The majority of the below is copied from fduk forum. I picked it up today, after going to view it on the 22nd of last month and leaving a deposit until the guy was back off holiday and I was free. Was supposed to collect on the 16th of this month but we worked out an earlier date. So all was well! Extremely happy with it, drives awesome, feels really tight and very well balances as I've read they are supposed to be. Though my first RWD car, may take some time getting used to. Anyway, here's some pics. Bought some wheels, not too jdmy0 but still, can't go wrong with a set of grid drifts IMO! 17x9j all round. Got them off a friend, brand new (just a little dirty) with tyres for £500. So why the hell not . Also took my OMP 300mm wheel and 20mm spacer when I went to collect the car, because the MOMO one on there was not to my taste. So got the car home, and got the wheels on. Need to order some new wheel nuts tonight, will do that. Also stripped out the rear interior and all of the foam around the cage ready to paint white on the weekend along with a black interior floor pan (rear). All done for the day. Will drop the ride height down a tad more at the weekend, though I don't want it mega low, as I like the ride height on fd's quite 'practical' if that word even fits these cars ha ha, you know what I mean! Not Slammed anyway. Year 99. C-west front bumper. Tein coilovers. Blitz nur spec exhaust. OMP 300mm suede wheel. Snap off boss. Full weld in cage, through dash, door bars, gusset to A pillars and gussets to lower B pillars. 17x9j Grid drifts. Think that's about it for now! Thanks for reading .
