liking the pink as you say he who dares

 

[armo]

cheers mark, just sick of the sight of red and blue, looks nice but bin done over and over again, think grey, black and pink will look pretty cool, probs get mistaken for a bird like lol

 

[MarkWales]

Pink calipers ?

or is that too far

 

[armo]

nah pink calipers mate, panther black wheels and a 60mm drop on the coilys, then pink turbo, coolant and vac hoses but thats the lot. Cals should look wicked behind the black rims, if they look **** its only a coat of paint, just want the car to be different

Gorgeous colour car

 

[armo]

cheers lee

 

[armo]

got my boost gauge fitted. although the fit of the pod leaves a lot to be desired it looks pretty sweet, gonna have to be a nomad pod i think! cost me an extra £25 for a new light switch as my mate decided to destroy mine pulling it out, leaving my car lit up like a christmas tree and unable to turn em off but all in and sorted now....couple of pics

Cheers dude, if iv got time im gonna try and get the wheels done aswell before the pics so it should look pretty different, depends how many problems fitting these puppies throws up. Your front ends looking mint with that cooler like fella, looks like you done a good job on the fitting

 

[twenny]

Mate its gona look sick with the wheels aswell !! nice one

Yeah im pleased with my fmic , still a bit of tidying/Finalising positions up to do, but 95% there , took me from 9 til 4 on saturday just gone lol , was a nightmare to keep the fogs but worth all the effort .
Thanks for the comments buddy

looking forward to your pics at weekend

all the best

hopefully mate, i dont really like the wheels but i havent got £500 plus lying about at the minute to change em so a change of colour might be just the trick, at least until some more money grows on that tree out the back lol. From the pic it looks pretty perfect position wise, which kit did you use toyo? think i may have to be taking some tips from you when it comes round to me buying a front mount, il have one ready for the summer temps. Im gonna put some pics of mine up slammed 100mm lol then il set it to where i want it and take some proper ones, watch this space, cheers mate

 

[twenny]

yeah mate we could all do with some extra cash lol
bloody crimbo ,humbug lol , i think a fresh colour will do the trick nicely

yeah it was a toyo type s mate with a uni pipe kit , theres a link in my readers rides fella and a bit of info on it .

total cost to me was around £150 as a freind put 45 to the kit ,as i was fitting his for him too ,

by all means ask any questions when your ready to fit yours matey ,

[armo]

so you got the kit for £195, where at? iv been looking at £280 direct from there website. You reckon its made much difference?

Just changed all the front lights and WOW! extra bright crystal look rather than dull yellow, very happy! ripped my fingers to bits changing the sidelights over so a tip for anyone wanting to do this, they come out by turning them until that flat part of the holder is level top and bottom, then it will release, 25 minutes later i clicked on to this il get some pics when its dark

 

[gezmeister]

Those coilovers, they the FK AK street on ebay? Thinking of ordering them next year. And are you keeping those rear lights?

 

[twenny]

The kit was 125 which included the intercooler and a box of pipes and joiners , ebay job
i had to buy a map pipe £30 and 2 x 45 degree silicone bends at £16 ( to allow me to keep the fogs )


Its made a big difference , so much more pull and it holds on to the pull much higher up the revs , iv got some logs to do at sompoint so ill post up intake temps ,
