jesus its been ages since i was on here hehe, i havnt really done much to it, i had it in mondello park for the SXOC trackday and my diff decided to **** itself, so i reaplced it with a nismo 2way, i absolulty love the diff very predictable for sliding and not as bad as people make them out to be in a daily car,
which resulted in alot of this carry on

with the bad weather on the way i powerhosed, waxoyled and underseled it

then i got bored and got a bit happy with the satin black spray :D


then i parked it up over the bad months of winter when it looked like this


because i wasnt drivinig it at all over xmas i saved up a few coins and treated myself to these earlier this week(some carbon is always good)


next will be a turbo elbow,injectors,walbro fuel pump and a remao using nistune,
but new coilovers are a priority also, once i gather a few more euros il lsee whats happenin but i just book a holiday so i will be broke for the forseable future,
anyway what ye all think?

update time i got myself a bride recliner a couple of weeks ago including super low rail, couldnt pass it up for the money,


i got DW style tow hooks aswell so they are being painted tmorro and fitted soon after, the back one will be very easy to fit but the front bumper will need a bit of trimming for the front hook to fit.
next are tein ends,
DW front lower arm poly bushes
replacement lower ball joints and a japspeed elbow,
should hav all them by end of next week
im doing a drift day this sunday so hopefully nothing needs to be replaced after that hehe,

UPDATE TIME :D:D:D
i got sick of looking at my chrome wheels looking tatty so i polished up the lip and painted the centres metallic purple

only did it fot bit of craic,
then i fitted my front tow hook

it sits just under the front bumper when the bumper is on,
then i did a couple of trackdays down in goldstone and had serious craic down there,
pic en route

the cousins 2ltr omega which got serious abuse down there,


i blew another turbo gasket and tore the joiner from the hotpipe to the turbo intake

was all worth it though when i won best entry of the day at goldstone when i done a trackday with DTD

some new gauges "oil temp,pressure and boost gauge"
