Title: Out with the old, in with the new (56k warning!)
Post by: <--rYaN--> on April 15, 2005, 06:23:33 PM
Well i was going to keep my old car and spend the money making it faster and get it looking like i wanted it, but this baby caught my eye and it was 1 of the 25 99 spec cars that T W White imported apparently, low mileage, immaculate interior, im over the moon with it, the differences are amazing in the way it drives, no creaks, better plastics, air bags, boost guage, safe to say im very happy :D

Anyway here are some pics:

The old :

Me too, the old one was cracking fun though, hard suspension, frap frap of a ported engine, loud exhaust, but this is so much more refined, much much easier to drive, and it doesnt give me headaches :rollin

All thats planned so far is possibly new wheels because i dont have have much confidence in the standard thin tyres :confused:

Performance wise i think powerfc, induction, high flow cat/midpipe replacement, downpipe and boost controller, im enjoying the easy quiet drive at the moment, stock is nice :D

excellent good work matey, wood advise you get a proper sized front plate up for £20 or so worth getting that extra air flow to where it\'s usefull IMO (http://instagiber.net/smiliesdotcom/contrib/ruinkai/coolgleamA.gif)

Im putting the private plate off my old car on this one and either selling the one on the silver one or swapping them over, i\'ll definitely sort the plate size then :D
