Spot on bodski! I presume this is the car advertised on here that you bought a few weeks ago? The Jdm model?
How are you getting on with it? I still haven't drove one yet. How does it compare to the classic?

Loving the twin scroll at present. So much more drivable than my old Blob. This one may well be 60Bhp down but as a everyday driver it feels quicker maybe 70% of the time. It's only at the top of the rev range where it looses out to the 321T combination on my old car.
Never had a classic mate. Only driven a friends RA for a few months so difficult to compare tbh

Standard ride height Ian. No plans to change it tbh. I have to go up a pretty step ramp to get in and out of work. I had to remove the splitter on the blob after fitting coilovers.
Wheels will eventually get changed. Got the wedding to pay for so can't go taking the p1ss and spending **** loads on the car at present

See your spending already Boyd lol.
Looks spot on, would love one in carbon, but it would just get destroyed as mine is pretty low, damaged repaired mine twice and that's plastic.
Careful with that front plate size too, boys in blue don't like them
I had lucky escape with mine a while ago, back to full size....shame as I liked the small one.

Keeping the standard ride height for the moment so I'm pretty sure the splitter will survive. As I said to Ian I have to go up quite a steep ramp getting in and out of work and was sh1tting it first time I drove in after fitting the splitter
clears with about 40mm to spare

You think you can get off a ticket by having the full size plate in the boot?, wont they just say why didnt you fit it to begin with? I only scrapped through last time as the guy liked the car
, much prefer the smaller 3/4 plate.

Well you done all the major mods on your last one, so truley have the t-shirt to show for it. I recon simple is best and carry on doing what you are small tasteful mods.

Change of wheels and that's pretty much going to be it for this one
