Some of the engine - taken with a dodgy app.

The old DAMD wheel.
http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...e/3a82b3d0.jpg Was never to my liking, the smaller diameter made the car feel to twitchy. Plus it felt to thick for me. |
The replacement wheel, re-trimmed with red centre and stitching.
Bad photos I'm afraid. http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...ps9dc73f60.jpg http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...psa4e2ed50.jpg |
It then went into a nice dry garage for the winter.

I'm now trying to decide if I do a brake cooling mod and fit fog surrounds.

Hmmm, doesn't suit it mate for some reason? Although strangely I like it on mine!
|
Think I agree, have a look tomorrow and tell me what you think.
|
Awesome car. What wheels are on it?
|
Very nice car mate!!!
The car looks better with the STi fog surrounds :thumb: |

Good luck trying to find one. Wish I knew exactly how many are in the UK but I think it's 4 including mine. |
Looking good there Jim :cool:
|
Yes looks lovely ,fog surrounds look best though
|
mmmmmmmm.... very nice motor you have there mate :thumb:
|
Stunning ...
|
Beautiful car :)
|
Thanks, have to say it would be tough to find anything to replace it, unless it had another R at the end of its name.

I've decided to keep to the standard look and keep the fog blanks on the front. Mainly due to the fact I can't fit the ducts as I had a slight oversight regarding the position of the washer bottle for a hawk spec C (behind the passenger vent).
I could reposition it back into the engine bay but I'm not doing that to an RA so this little project is up for sale. http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...psfebb6a71.jpg http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...psd069fb58.jpg http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...psc4e21c22.jpg http://i51.photobucket.com/albums/f3...psfee258aa.jpg It's a cheaper version of the Rooducts to direct air from the front, around the front tyres and into the wheel centres. A few guys in the states use these Vette ducts to clear the tyre (the thin section) along with a hose to the centre of the disc. |
Gave the Spec C RA a good polish and wax today so thought it would be rude not to post some pics.

Wow - hawk looks stunning in white, great pix too!
|
Very nice!!:thumb:
Is there only 4 Type RA Spec c in white??? Or is it it rare because its a Type RA Spec C instead of a normal Spec C if there such a thing????? Confusing I know(well for me it is)!!!:wonder: Im looking for a white Hawk Spec C at the moment, but if there is only 4 or so of them in the UK, then I have no chance of finding one!!!:brickwall and to be honest its very rare that you see one for sale, seen a couple of blue Spec C's for sale recently but would love a white Hawk Spec C!!:luvlove: |
It's rare because its a Hawk Spec C RA! Although white is the best colour and this car is absolutely stunning! Great pics Jim!
|
There are only a handful of Hawk RA's in the country. One white one is now Matt black, one written off I believe so its this one and another.
