Hey guys, thought i'd put up a little project thread.
I bought this car two years ago with 75k on, then sold it to my mate and he sold it to his brother and now i've bought it back, it had seized brakes,dodgy track rod, budget tyres, blowing exhaust... you get the idea.
The aim was for this to be my track car, i had a 250 BHP CTR with a quaife and everything but going to uni each day was pointless so i've bought a bora tdi and the rallye and will bank the rest once i sell the civic.
Me and my friend have decided to kind of share the rallye to although it is my car.
Anyway, enough rabbiting excuse the dirtyness..
Everything is sorted,
new brakes all round, standard rears, mintex 1155's and brembo discs up front, Braided lines here but not fitted yet.
Lowered 40mm for now on springs till i get my AST's.
Fully stripped out
2 x Sparco Circuit Pro's with side mounts and custom rail to allow driver seat to move
TRS 3 " 4 point harnesses with aerocatch
Rally design 2" dished suede wheel and OMP boss
Speedline JMags with michelin Exalto's (Not here yet)
Cyclones with r888's here ready to be fitted
Pugsport exhaust and de-cat
To fit this week hopefully as i'm at Bedford on the 30th in it.
Solid engine mounts
16 row oil cooler
Over at Carls Weds to check over the car and check it doesnt need any work before hand.
Anyway, sorry for the poor pictures excuse the dirtynress but it's all i could get..

yeah same 2.0 16v 167bhp but they weigh 70kg less standard,
I wasn't sure about the green harnesses but it was function over looks really and in person they actually look pretty good

I loved bedford in the saxo even though it was wet
Nice amount of variety and quite open so you can push it quite alot.
I did the GT one, that what you have booked?
Looks spot on BTW
Drives supercharged Tec with torque
