Drove 600 miles collecting parts for last weekend. Ran out of money. Borrowed money. Hired out trailer, then I was told I wasn't allowed to go. . .
Yes. Exactly.
Ran round the country, collected rims, spent a whole week priceing, looking, deciding, buying fitting tyres.
I changed the plugs, oil oil filter and coolant.
Made a mess of fitting a 3 point harness ( Thanks Davie for suppling the harness, top guy!)
Ran out of money after servicing it, so expect next update to be in July some time, if not december.
Its still looking like shite, but voila.
So after doing a bita this....

And realising 15'' rims posses minus bigness

It sat like this looking extreamely purely shit for ages....
Then after a further 'fucking ages' , and realising getting 14 front lower arms wasn't just a cunt, but also quite the wallet muncher, I said 'fuck it' just got a set of 4-studness.
As the 15'' rims wernt mine, and I didnt even have a set of 4 wheels to roll on.
Took it to Bishops court. It felt slower then a turbo deisel. Nothing at all in it, esp at high revs. So left it for ages.
Now I just want to say, the plugs are the singlemost best well spent 8 quid ever. Car feels 100x better. Now the 'hybrid t25' can actually be felt!

After fitting some decent wheels on it I realised it is in need of being lowered. et24 offset. So its all good.
Buy a zenki lip, slam it, will look amazing. Fact!

Thanks Seamie.
buy one with full exhaust, coilovers and clutch. Saving for a de-cat and downpipe as well as a fuel pump is killing me.Quote:
