1.8 china blue xs - connorp - 09-05-2015 So this is how the car looked in the advert online and the day I got her ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The first thing I did was fit a deep dish omp suede steering wheel ![]() I then fitted an omp upper strut brace ![]() I then bought a 3.5" back box and had to cut and weld the piping to make it fit, but it's loud as hell now!! Pictures and vid coming https://vimeo.com/127339430 I removed the badges from the boot Picture coming... I then bought some pretty battered nimrod alloys ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I then decided to paint my centre console and side vents white! Picture coming... I then bought some 20mm wheel spacers, and with too many people in the car my wheels now rub ![]() ![]() Then the old girl reached 120000 miles ![]() I then had my nimrods painted in anthracite grey, centre caps will be in soon ![]() This is how they look on the car ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() I've since put a crappy aftermarket air filter on it, using my old metro air intake pipe Picture coming... List of things still to do; Get her lowered, suggestions on how much to lower it by please Paint the spoiler anthracite Paint brake calipers china blue(for subtlety) Paint front badge anthracite De-badge the boot Front splitter Possibly make a decat Any suggestions on what to/not to do are much appreciated RE: 1.8 china blue xs - Orta - 09-05-2015 Lows needed! Most will say 30mm but depends if you're doing it for looks or agility. If the latter stick with 30mm if looks then anywhere from 60mm down looks awesome. Be sure to budget for updated shocks tho 1.8 china blue xs - connorp - 09-05-2015 I'm thinking agility! And what shocks would you recommend? Exhaust ![]() ![]() ![]() https://vimeo.com/127339743 Centre console and vents, I did them really badly, I'm going to re-do them, maybe in anthracite this time though, thoughts? ![]() Air filter ![]() RE: 1.8 china blue xs - Dum-Dum - 09-05-2015 She looks really clean mate. A massive wallop with the lowering stick and a GTi6 inlet manifold and it'll be awesome. RE: 1.8 china blue xs - 7057sam - 12-05-2015 Looks good mate As dum dum said 6 inlet is another great mod. RE: 1.8 china blue xs - Eeyore - 12-05-2015 Looks good! Id recommend the gti6 manifold but wouldnt bother with the exhaust manifold. 1.8 china blue xs - connorp - 13-05-2015 Nice one, cheers, I'll keep the updates coming as I do more to her 1.8 china blue xs - connorp - 01-10-2015 Since my last update I have got a git6 inlet manifold and de-resonated it ![]() I have also repainted the centre console and side vents in rover hurricane grey(the nearest thing to anthracite I could get). ![]() I am also now running a decat, it is such a nice sound when thrashing it https://vimeo.com/141086886 I have put a 306oc.co.uk sticker on the front left headlight, I saw someone else had done it and thought it looked pretty smart so thought why not ![]() I also had a slight collision with a grass bank at like 5/10 mph and it has bent the front left down a bit ![]() |
