GinG I really like that, but the wheels are a bit halfords

Thanks, I like how the alloys look on the car, they weren't cheap, but never getting Team Dynamics again, just need to look at them and they chip! I needed new alloys as the ones that were on before were the wrong fitment and scrubbed like hell.
edit: just seen the prices these go for now, halfords have killed them

I don't suppose that lay-by is between Northallerton and Thirsk is it?
Caporegime
^^ sure is
good spot, how do you recognise that from where your from?
I grew up in Northallerton
I used to go shooting to Thirsk most weekends!What does it matter when I signed up that is like say you can't comment because there is age restrictions.
So it's a crime to ask what other people drive now? It's good to know what they drive if any have car like mine they can from experience give advice on trying some parts or trying to change something.
It's a double garage no wall between the two but the door is just large enough to roll the car in and out but I have to be careful.
I have a shot of the rear which I will post up at some point over weekend and the camera which took the other pics was borrowed so once I finish the work on it I will take some other pics with my camera phone.
I am merely trying to be constructive and give my opinion on what I think would look better, rather than just saying LOL IT LOOKS CRAP !!!111one.
Not that it makes one iota difference as to weather I can express an opinion on your car, but I've owned the following:
- Classic Impreza with STI5 rear spoiler and deeper front splitter. About all the bodykit a scooby needs. Most of the money was spent where it mattered though, it was running 350bhp and suspension and brakes to match.
- RX7 FD with an RE-Amemiya front end and GT rear wing, again this had most money spent where it mattered, just under 400bhp.
- A couple of Honda Integras, neither of which had any bodykit whatsoever.
- An R33 Skyline GTS-T with, amongst other things, a carbon bonnet, and a Do-Luck front end.
As for what I drive at the moment, it's the Golf in my sig. I've done the whole throwing money at jap cars thing, but I just can't justify it any more.
I'm happy to give my opinons face-to-face. Infact I often do.
Oh please. The old 'your just jealous' crap doesn't wash round here
I asked about your car due to I thought you had that body kit that's why you was suggesting it I was going to ask you to post up some pics of it to see what it looks like.
So you didn't want to do the the two car option that is what I am doing Supra is way to expensive to run everyday and it has problems with everyday roads.

Indeed, because "OMG THAT CAR MAKES ME WANT TO PUKE" isn't amazing discussion or even constructive criticism, it's just rude comments that you wouldn't mutter if you was stood in front of him.
Soldato
Well no, I didn't really did I? It was more a statement that if it was a standard BMW or Mondeo he wouldn't be receiving rude comments, would he?
Way to welcome a relatively new member though
Fair enough, I thought you were doing the 'you can't comment on my car because you only drive a turd' thing. My apologies if I was mistaken.
Does it go Pshtshhhhh everytime you change gear, it needs to go Pshtshhhhh you know, Pshtshhhhh is ace. To my eyes that body kit is awful but each to their own and all that, looks shiny I suppose.
This however, this I like and you wont get a better first car for cheap fun!

Shame it won't turn properly on 13s
Need 12s or even better 10s! The turning circle is very large in comparison to car size when running 13s. Steering gets rather heavy too.
Yeah turning circle can be quite bad and i find the steering fine at normal speeds its just the fact thats its none power steering so can be a little difficult parking. But its not an issue to be honest and its a really fun car to drive.
Love putting my foot down in second gear, its pretty quick all things considered. Handles corners good too.
Its in the garage this weekend and for a bit of next week so i cant drive.

Its the 1.3i, i think it will be the same if not similar to the one HXC has in his.
Everything is stock and as it is when it came out of the showroom in 1997. Lucky for me my parents barely used it and kept it tucked away in a garage (which i will still do). So its only got 12k miles on the clock.
I really want it back from the garage.
