    Cool Operation make it bad ass

    This is what alcohol and internet does to you!



    Mmmmm, 12 inches of shiny goodness


    After I'd forked out all the money, I realised they didn’t fit on my Sinclair C5. I was on a mission, find a car for them

    After some hunting, I bought this clean recently re built S13:





    Unfortunately when I went to have a look at it, it looked like this:


























    ON NOES!!!!!1111one!!!1








    It had been put back to near standard to go in for the scrappage scheme but the previous owner had a change of heart at the last minute to see if anyone wanted to save her.

    And i Did

    So operation make it bad ass was started

    Over the next few months I got carried away buying lots of parts, copious amounts of cash later I had all this:



    After all this buying I decided to eventually, (6 months later) get my goodies on the car.




    When no one else can be arsed helping, and your down on your luck, there’s only one person to call...........Dunkz:




    Got up early this morning and drove down with stu_ to Dunkz' gaff to start emptying my boxes.

    First up, turbo needed changed, so it was out with the old:



    In with the new:






    While we were in the engine bay, thought I would fit my new radiator and hoses too.




    Next the rear of the car. 5 stud hub conversion, coilovers, and a full set of alignment arms.








    And all this in preparation for the main event:












    My Enkei’s 17x10j et9 Front and 17x11.5j et15 rear, says hello
    Coilover clearance without spacers:




    An early morning tomorrow for more fun and games
