the only pic of the back, first mod!! backbox, then i got an omp strubrace
car stayed like this for a while, then i got bored (as i do )
then i got my new bonnet (with scoop) and smoothed grille, got em painted, then fitted
oh yeh forgot to say that i blew the fooker up at about 140 on a private strip, so while the head was off i had it ported and polished and oversized valves fitted ran 167 on the rr with standard exhaust(except backbox) and air feed
then i started stripping it^^^
then i debadged and dewipered
then i bought some sp rims off alex (bert) cheers pal! then set about refurbing them white
long story short, i done the refurb and got them on the car
cant be arsed to put more up tonight but that is how it stood about 10 months ago, will get more up tomorow  D

Love this car! The blue carpets are rare as hell as IIRC they were only in ph1 xsi's and S16's so there aren't many left now!

Looks a bit short at the front where it has to avoid the dash but otherwise it looks good mate.

It's butted right up to the dash bud, any further forward and the top would touch the widescreen which wouldn't be good ha ha
