Well lads, how's it going? Just after getting my first car about 2 months ago, here's a few pics.









Done a small few bits since I bought it, nothing serious. Apexi catback, pressed plates, wheel nuts, wind deflectors, have a Blitz FMIC to go onto it aswell, hopefully get it fitted within the next week. Should be picking up a set of coilovers this week too.

I'm also trying to source a set of 15" Advan SA3Rs, black with a blue lip if anyone has a set, or knows of anyone with a set give me a shout :)

Welcome along, nice first car! Its hard to tell for sure from the photos, but it looks like your radiator has been leaking coolant. Check the overflow bottle when its cold, every day for a week and see if it looses any fluid. A leaking rad is the best way to blow a head gasket on these cars.

I had planned to cut the bumper, but I might not now anymore. There was 167,000 km/h on the clock when I bought it, but the spring in the speedo was broke so I had to replace it, so now theres 92,000 km/h on it :p

Spent nearly 4 hours cleaning her yesterday, washed, shammied, compounded and waxed, so I thought it'd be rude not to take a few pics haha























All going well, I should have coilovers later on today so i'll have to take a few more pics then :p

Are they not the same engine? The centre caps say K-Speed or something like that, so copies! Hoping to get Advan SA3Rs soon enough. Ehm I don't think so, none that I know of anyways

A lad on toc has a set of sa3r for swaps but might sell either! Maybe you're on it and seen them already?

Also your vac pipes are arse ways there! Your vac goin to your dump valve is comin from the intake mani goin through the hi/low solenoid and the other one to the actuator is wrong aswell!

Tell me not to be nosey if you like but I wouldn't like to not tell you and it shit itself next week!

I saw a video about putting the dump valve going through the solenoid to get it to chatter but it didn't work for me :/
