been a while since I've been on here...

Little has changed in the meanwhile.

The 18"sub went due to weight.
I got some carbon badges from gnrlee, both from and rear.

And the front got raised 1.5cm


Anyhow, this car is going to be turned into a small cube Sad
Decided to break it, so almost all parts are coming up for sale. (pm if you want anything)
I had too many problems with mpg and rough/lumpy idle at startup (i tried everything mentioned on here) and I sick of fidling and having a (sort of) unreliable car.

The new car should be here somewhere in May.
I'll definitely post it here once I get it Wink

I'm only breaking it the moment the new one arrives. (probably starting end of April)

Mind one thing, I'm located across the pond, in Belgium.
And several things are already reserved.
Like the complete exhaust and the kw's.
Also, only one set of wheels is coming up for sale, namely the 15" coupé's (starfish)

enkei evo tarmac, mine are et18 iirc but i know of another pair (close to me) and the guy might just sell them for the right price, they are et25 though.

i'm going to try and see if i can use mine for wintertyres on the new car, failing that, they might be up for sale.

The handling and engine note will send you to sleep long before you get to any decent twisties though, sorry.

I don't know what it will drive like, but I just don't like the look of it, especially the front where there is far too much going on and the headlights stretching all the way back to the windscreen is horrible. The person who drew it was trying far too hard. I couldn't enjoy owning a car that ugly.

Still, ugly is the new handsome.
