    Just read this now, love that colour! Hard to believe its standard.

    Would love this as a daily,just needs the coilovers your after and it'll be sweet!👍 but I can't have another one as my wife hates the one I've got!! 😆😆😆 plus probably not very practical while my boys still a baby......... Maybe in the future.🙏

    @JP: nothing wrong with buttplugs haha, and jesus it feel goooooood :3

    @Steff: thanks its not all stock though. its a nearly stage 1 car atm.
    but its nippy enough to drive day to day. boosting .8bar iirc.
    has walbro pump, stage 1 chip, apexi intake, ss clutch lines, full exhaust and greddy boost controller.
    and some rust to make it lighter
    interior has s14 seats, steering wheel & boss and now the knob ha.

    defo needs handling work though, coilovers are a minimum, along with a diff....
    but we'll get there haha.

    Rust is lighter than carbon fibre! 😆😆 and I ment I can't believe the colour is a standard one.👍 but stage one is perfect for a daily tho IMO👌 should look sweet once it's a bit lower

    Ah right ha, t ah its a nice colour alright.
    Needs some tlc though, like most reds.
    It gets blunt fast but the upside is with the right
    products its a 180° turn around

    Was going to ask whether you liked it in your hand or when fitted

    Regards boost the EBC was set to 1 bar when I had it.

    You should think about fitting an FMIC to give the turbo an easier life as the WMIC is so restrictive you'll be losing 2.5 psi between the turbo and the plenum.

    I'd recommend one that fits in front of the radiator as it has short pipework, doesn't need you to cut the battery tray and can't be seen with the bonnet closed.

    Here's mine...

    ruby didnt get any work done since the gearknob lol... but she did get a polish and wax ha.
    going to all the local-ish meets etc so she's well known now ha.



    still have to do the intake gaskets, change gearbox oil and investigate the serious blue smoke out the back haha.
    they are the main 3 points for sorting soon.... wish i had the funds for coilovers and a diff -_- the open diff and
    lack of stance lark is really upsetting me atm haha.
    still have to address the rust too... the joys haha.

    The old Wolfrace alloys have gone, and those are bigger alloys? The Wolfrace alloys were put on the day I bought it so were about 19yrs old! Stood up pretty well don't you think?

    And the license plate has changed?

    Oh, and the black stripe's gone too?

    Yes, yes and yes ha.
    Wheels are 8.5j back and 8j front. 17"
    If I had the cash it would see a type x kit and a respray ha.
    Gonna go for power before kit though that's for sure.

    ronnie, man i know how you must feel! she is just great. love her to bits (not literally...)
    she's in good hands ha. slowly fixing all the little niggly bits and pieces on her...
    id love money to put into a kit and a respray but i dont see that happening really ha.
    she looks well now anyways coilovers and diff are on the list though as both are compulsory...
