HI, thought i'd sign up on here seeing as the other forums are dead .
anyway a quick run down of me fleet and some of the other cars i've owned/scrapped .
first up me dturbo (main project/money pit) used for daily use and abuse. currently in bit's awaiting a bigger turbo and small rebuild. spec: kw v1's, 283's, 1.9d alloy n/a inlet manifold, gti6 interior (eyeing up a red s16 interior at min though), ph2-1 s16/gti exterior, decat, deback box, fmic, 9mm bosch with a stage1 tune and light work, t2 (in the boot at the min), recon injectors, open air filter (for now) and rolls on a mix of clones, smr's or anything else cheap with useable tyre's in what ever colour is to hand.
layed up due to a water leak and a crappy rad.
painted front end up after stripping the naff rad out
how the bay looks at the min
shiny bit's
latest pic (2months ago)
plans: fit gti6 rear beam, koni adj rear dampers, gti6 scorpian system and back box, gti or vts rack, volvo turbo, ph1 rub strips redo intercooler piping, setup on rollers and maybe a respray.
next project cat c volcane plans is to use as a daily once i get round to welding it and get it vic'd. spec: stock apart from rust and ziptied rear bumper.
test fitted some 15's
plan to stage 1, de-back box, swap the k14 for a t2, lower it, 283's and run it on lairy coloured 15's.
and the last of the current fleet me track/daily (whilst waiting for the volcane) saxo vtr it cost naff all did the trackday i brought it for and does 32mpg so will do for now, plus my mate breaks loads of them each so parts are cheap and easy to get.
track damage repaired the only way i know how
been offered a jp4 setup cheap so i might lower it and fit a 16v cause the shell is better than most vts'.
and some oldies
brougth a ex CAL zx (never again it was heap but it was cheap) turn out to be rotten all over, leaked oil out of ever seal on the motor, had no springs and a f*cked beam but this is what happens when you buy cars through text's lol.
scrapped it and got most of me money back so wasn't bothered.
ran this from may till october this year sold it to me brother which paid for the saxo.
and thats about it for now.
