  1. Got the wheels to fit! Nothing abit of sanding with a dremel sorted . Heres rough pic will get one when shes cleeeeeeean. This is what my work day consisted of... all work done so here is one of my whips
  2. Little update. Wheels wont fit. The centre bore is too small so will dremel it out.
  3. Hi guys. Not really been doing much. Bought centre section but thats now broke after 4 days. Silly lows. This is how shes looking so far.. nothing really changed got some wheels with mint tyres for 45 quid as i desperately needed rear because of camber..then found out they were yaris sr alloys... A bit of a steal! Before after it was one of my £1 a wheel jobs ago lol. Well its working for me?
  4. Oh you lot! the wine rack Defiantly was a must have deal when bought the car, just removed it Its ok. There was paint flake which I couldn't be bothered to smooth out now There's a air bubble there without fail after every use lol. Never mind
  5. Not much to update on. Just thought id share a quick shot with bonnet wrapped. I got some front forks to try shave some mil off the height up front. Also seen this little beast! Track ready All stripped and roll cage etc. Anyone know who owns? Saving for a new exhaust.. and maybe a couple tyres up front. There a little bold:/ ahwell... More to come!
  6. Fifa?!tut football not a chance! Haha its alright shes been seen too!
  7. My misses helped me do the bonnet. She carried it in and help hold the wrap, the lot! Deserves a treat I think...
  8. Got bored. Had a roll of carbon wrap so thought id play around with it. Done the spoiler and bonnet. I scratched the top of bonnet a couple times >:/ but Never mind
  9. Yes unganden dollars!! Haha nooo great british pounds . More tuning capabilities out the box. Was planning a car save but then this turbo thing crossed my mind so yeah.. ill just get on with saving and see what happens
  10. Thats the One haha. Isit worth it when a 2.2 diesel civic is 730 a year... :/
  11. Turbos got the actuator and dump Valve is an Internal oil feed shouldnt be too bad to do. And yeah mate fuel cut defender. Its a considerable thought which needs more thought atm lol
  12. Hey guys. I know this is either a hit or miss subject, people talking as if the questioner knows nothing so just a head up. I am a qualified mechanic. So please speak in mechanical d terms and not "dumbed" down ok. breaking my volvo lately and thought... what would actually be needed to run the td04 L turbo. Have read alround and seen you can run safe boost to 175 on stock inners. Lets put this aside just want to focus on what I would need to boost ad a start. Inners can be changed later on. so im thinking. Turbo exhaust elbow exhaust manifold standalone ecu upgraded fuel pump and injectors intercooler piping possibly a fcd depending on standalone? driveshafts from b series stiffer mounts (torsional movement cancellation) Beefier brakes and of corse.. the car would this be the basic boost list? Would love the deck boosted as itll be different and icve got a hks filter, some spare piping I could alter, the turbo, could reuse volvo intercooler some way or another, 240cc injectors and walbro 255lph pump. I dont need a terrible amount extra, just want some knowledge on if its cost effective at the stage I am part wise and worth it. Remember, Internals will get upgraded in the future if more power was wanted. Id also run a cooler engine temp to keep heat wear facture down. Thanks guys
  13. I got the filter in. It didnt fit, was too wide and a little short but I managed to find a way of Getting it in it definitely has given some gains... can tell on the uphill climbs. It actually holds or speeds up haha took some pictures of the camber and lows. Its That low Mudguards are scraping on country roads and a credit card wont go under lol. Naturally showing from the lowest point, minus exhaust that thing just scrapes all along and the camber <3 Gunna try get the windows tinted. Its p**sing me off and just urgh. Also I want to fabricate a longer spoiler out of One from the volvo. Recycling and that, or im just cheap? Is there even any bigger spoilers for this decks? :S
  14. Oh right my bad . Guessing you had made flush with the top of the bolt slot?
  15. are they not completely different forks?
