Say that again once I buy my roof spoiler and then actually fit it.

Nothing is ever trouble-free with cars. Your EJ6 was just the calm before this storm.

Probably just needs the other side tightened, makes sense as you tightened one.. that's if it's the same kind of noise? Glad you're slowly getting this sorted, it's just punishment you see for leaving the Honda scene to buy a boat/mondeo.

Okay The past few weeks have been a bit crap to be honest, i almost fell out of love with the car i think and was on the verge of beginning to question myself about the wheels id bought after all the complications i'd had with the wheel the following happened; my 15MM spacers from tegiwa turned up, the were a 63PCD instead of the 66PCD that i required. the ally wheel nuts i got from epic have basically shredded themselves on the passenger front hub because they were off/on so much when adjusting coilys they left a small metal strip inside the thread of my hubs, and i then proceeded to put a set of spline nuts over them. so f**ked the spline ones too. (5 of them) ! Tegiwa managed to get me a 66PCD set of 15mm hubcentrics delivered the following day, i was told they were gunna be delivered on the monday (the guy even offered to take a set to his house in derby so i could pick them up!) A++++ service on that okay. go to fit my spacers... nope. wasnt simple, never is! The hub centric spacers exceeded the original studs. so...... ANGLE GRINDERRRR!! (first time using one might i add!) put a washer and the spacer nut on the hub to mimic how everything would sit proceeded to cut off my studs. hands down the scariest thing ive done on a car. dad filming me from the garage was a little off putting SUCCESS! finally something that went right WRONG. after a few days i started getting a weird noise from the driver front.. posted on SXOC talking to the lads in our group chat was convinced it was my wheels rubbing on coilovers again so was under the car at 8pm after a 12 hr shift at work. nope. not the coilovers was suggested balljoints. went past the garage on wednesday and spoke to a good friend of mine 'your wheels aint tight mate' went absolutely beetroot red in the face! got home 5 mins later, jacked up driver side front and low and behind my spacer wasnt tight, tightened it up and all good! no noise!! now... nobody knows this... @Shafzzz @Roj on the way back from dropping my girlfriend off this morn, hit about 70ish on country road and started getting a weird rubbing noise from PASSENGER front. pulled over at nearest layby jacked the car up and tightened everything on that hub. didnt hit that speed again so cant tell if everything is okay yet but im 100% hoping everything is okay now.. its a shame its took so much work, because when i bought my GT3's for my EJ it literally bolted on no problem at all, seems that ive had every possible problem that could have happened has happened. but... fingers crossed everything's ok girlfriend says no fitment pretty much perfect on the front now literally as i am about to press 'post', step mum walked in with another delivery of my amber sidelight bulbs, orderes thurs nught, turned up sat AM, cost me £2 DELIVERED. AWESOME!! until next time!!

After doing the side repeaters and rear lights, the front end looks really out of place, so I got a pair of these: Indicators not included (thank god) and I'll be removing the sidelight bulbs so I just have angels for sidelights. Just need smoked indicators to finish it off!

Like that rocker cover mate... Looks sweet. Also matches your (whales) penis

mmmm nothings happening yet so gotta bide our time somehow!

More interesting than this build to be fair

Well, MB6 is broken and because I'm lazy, that meant I needed a car on the road, which meant the MB2 needed a new exhaust system after snapping the manifold. Not one for being sensible, I bought a cherry bomb to replace the manifold downpipe cutting and welding happened, and half way through, it looked like this More cutting and welding and we have this Which means this And while doing all this, we found this. Quite the dent in my sump Matt

Cheers guys the sub should be ready soon hopefully yeah

Thanks @ammarbm ! I am thinking spoon yellow or kawasaki green for the calipers. I want something bright to stand out I will get saving once I got Japfest out the way @Krzys
