col Posted July 31, 2012 Share Posted July 31, 2012 Thought I'd start a little project thread for my VTiSAt first there was no need as I planned to keep her original, but now I've been bitten and there will be a few changes coming in the not so distant future.As I got her: after full zs180 setup including rear arbnow handles as it should have done but there is still a bit of an arch gap... bought these for a pinch but as they've been sat around a while will require new tyres, and they're quite far down the list.ultra RARE kosei rims, should fill the arches a little more, but may still end up with a set of lowering springs at some pointthese also need new allen key heads as they were taken off by previous owner with a view to replacing, but now i'm not sure where to get new onesShe's also been treated to a full service - ALL fluids, filters, belts and ignition components, cup holder, heater matrix, new parcel shelf.this month should see:zs grey door cards or standard ones re-trimmed in alcantara, just waiting on a sample of the fabric.rocker cover repaintedtegiwa vtec solenoid cover zs wind deflectorsexhaust induction kitmy fogs returned from being reconditionednew headlights as mine are crazed and yellow'dmore pics to follow with progresscol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
