May 'swell stick up a project thread just to keep track of things.
Most of you know the car from *another* forum, Bought this off KrisB in AUG 2011 as a replacement for my dog of a PH2.
This is how she stands at the moment,
Lowered 40mm front 50mm rear, *healthy tune* on a K14 & bosh pump with about 23/24PSI boost. Smooth grille, Blue S16 interior, straight through exhaust with 4" back box, PH3 rear lights & twin optic headlights, Fondmetal 4000 alloys on toyo proxy tyres. Ph2/3 centre console / dash.
Haven't really done anything since buying the car other than maintaining it & adjusting the tune a wee bit. Quite a few plans for next year though, hopefully sooner rather than later,
Starting off with a respray of the wheels, not sure what colour i'm going yet but hopefully something a bit larey !
Want to remove the "dimma style" fuel caps and replace with standard ones.
Smooth PH3 boot & de wiper.
Then start on the FMIC build when I have saved up a few pennies
All feedback/advice/criticism is welcome.

I sold this to Jake for £1400 including the sound system. That was with EVERYTHING working, excluding mirrors because it's got cabriolet pods for tweeters
Most other ph1's fetch no more than about £750.
Hope everything is going great with the car though Jake. I do still miss her and if you ever decide to sell up i want first refusals

Terrible start to that one and also not the best recording. sorry guys :oops:
Both of them are about 7.5-8 seconds. hard to tell from the videos.
Still some adjustments to the accelerator cable needed, but overall i'm very happy with the improvement.

Jake, na mate it's sat on the shelf at work gathering dust in an envelope with your name on it. I'm a shitbag for not getting things sent
Matt, (sorry bout this jake) they wont fit over any other brakes apart from 247's without using 10 OR 15mm spacers. They're already ET11.

I had clutch done at mr cluch and they are TERRIBLE. My one wasnt adjusted properly so the bite point was on the floor. They didnt want to sort it out either. The workmanship was terrible
DO NOT GO TO THEM
Not just me. My mates dad had a simlar experience at a different centre
Also the warranty is completely worthless

£250 aint bad but aside form the poor workmanship youll get a rubbish pattern clutch not a genuine valeo one so youll kill it quickly

Well I'm currently wearing in a new clutch, ended up having to go to Mr clutch as it was getting so bad ! But they did fit a genuine Valeo & I made sure they showed me it before it went in, & have changed the rear engine mount & outer cv joints so it now drives so much smoother!
Next on the list is paintwork starting with the wheels, so come payday will try something that may not be to taste of most people and then I need to touch up some of the paintwork on the car.
Sorry for the lack of pictures but as i have broken my Iphone I dont have a camera handy But just for good measure.. heres some dan! took.
Oh and I need to resmooth the grille !
