This is when i bought my car it was standard apart frm alloys and what not,fitted my backbox off my old corsa and lowered it 40mm on springs
I then fitted smoked side repeaters and painted calipers and drums red
and had my wheels refurbed and sprayed plus fitted slatted grill
i have now fitted a copy inlet manifold lowerd it 60mm with spax shocks,also fitted smooth fuel cap wind deflectors depos mhw rears,oh and i had to put a new engine in as it sent a rod through the side so it now has a engine thts done 40k
comments and ideas welcome will get some more up 2 date 1s up soon

Coming along mate, DEPO's look nice
I'd say get rid of the chunky tyres though and it'll look nicer.
Might be in touch soon bout fitting an inlet for some beer tokens if you fancy it

had a problem with my car i was stuck in trafic and my tappets started tapin, so got it back garage and changed the oil and filter it was better 4 a bit but came back after going on long runs,it wasnt the tappets so thought it may be the oil pump anyhow tday came to do me oil pump took the sump off and found this
the oil pick up pipe was blocked with old sealer frm where some1 had sealed the sump lol alot cheaper than fitting the oil pump lol
