G\'day mate,
It\'s a knightsports front end. Suprisingly it makes a big difference to the to how cool the intercooler runs due to the size of the front opening compared to stock. I have my wheels arriving in just under two weeks so will post again when I have them fitted.

Cheers

It\'s a pig to keep clean, not sure if I would buy black again just for this reason.

Not when you got a wife to constantly remind you that the car is filthy and needs a wash. Atleast then I would try and decieve myself that it\'s not that bad, but with my wife that\'s not an option.

Sorry mate, just couldn\'t resist :)


My engine should be on its way back up the road on Friday :D  So I should be back on the road within the following 2 weeks, can\'t come soon enough - I\'m more than a little sick of this walking lark.

The warranty company have gone very quiet since I sent them a letter asking them to list anything on my car that would be covered by the warranty :rolleyes:   The place I bought the car from chipped in their 400 quid straight off, so things could be worse.

Hi Ryan,
The ac controls on the touring model was different than the rest of the models. I bought the car with the a pillar gauges. It\'s made by greddy and greddy have a dealer over here called I think svs motorsports. I will check and find out their website and advise.

Ryan/Brian, SVS are also known as Tuning Japanese.

Tuning Jap are also known as SAS.

I believe SVS is someone else (trust parts importer).

It doesnt help that both are run by people called Tim.

On the other hand it may be me that has got it all wrong but I think thats right.

That looks cool, I wandered if you would go for the typical maxpower type rubbish, big Kahn alloys which I hate but they look cool, a proper Jap alloy in a sensible size, really makes the car look nice!

Now that is a sin of all sins! I wouldn\'t mind if the cars moved quickly but they can\'t even do that! Shit cars for low achieving people, luckily in my part of London there are a few jap cars, got an RX7 up the road, numberplate Andy T, made to look like that with screws and what have you, dunno if it\'s someone on here, 3 Supras, 1 Evo and couple of new decent imprezas, no maxpower types, yippee!

Why is everyone leaving London, my brother bought a flat in one of those new developments, 6 months down the road moving out to Hertfordshire.

Does anyone know this RX7 with numberplate Andy T or something, has aftermarket front lip, the new type rear spoiler(99 spec I think). Is in navy blue colour unfortunately but still a nice car!

Post by: gsb876 on March 01, 2004, 03:22:53 PM
I think most younger drivers buy these cars as they can\'t get insured on something like a RX, however that green things a disgrace!!!

What were they thinking???:confused:  muppets!!!

I am really in a rant mood now, so appologies in advance.

That is one of the most hideous things I\'ve seen in a long time and there are some v sad excuses for cars in Reading including a 6 piped SS system on the back of a .... wait for it... 1.1 Saxo! but what the hell is going on with that back end??? :confused: looks like someone went to the tata modern and nicked a bit of a moder art piece and glued it to their car! As for the wheel arches well... And am I right in guessing that those wheels are Halfords specials. Hmmm London Modified Collective? sounds like a cross between a hippy comune and a Garage group!

Anyway I\'ll get back into my cupboard now

QuoteWhy is everyone leaving London

well where do I start

* It\'s a rip off

* the roads suck (as do the traffic, drivers and everything else)

* you get black bogies

* the people in london are mostly unfriendly and/or mentally disturbed

*there\'s never anywhere to park without a parking ticket

* there\'s no fresh air

*it\'s noisey

& most of all.........

* it has that green mess Corsa hhaha

Greenwich, south of the river!

The day I move out of London it will be to Oxfordshire but I am a fan of Herts, Beds north London grown up here, and we have the best motorwys of enjoying the speed of a vehicle, my brother went through the A1(M) tunnel at a fairly respectable speed on the weekend and I remembered I think it is where Simon Norris took his Evo at 190mph or something crazy.


Out of interest how long does it take you to get to London from Bedfordshire? He lives in north west London at moment and works here as carpenter but is looking at Hitchin as it\'s more peaceful and he was born there(good excuse!). it\'s just border of Beds and herts I believe.
Title: Pics Of My Rex
Post by: Andyp on March 02, 2004, 08:20:27 PM
yay Hitchin rocks, tis a nice place, not too many god dam chav scum (+ I was born there too!) :D

Hatfield tunnel doth rock, oh and the noise.. ooh yeah! :D

190? still 10mph behind the Top secret supra down at Peterbrough haha

I have to commute to the strand sometimes with work takes about an hour on so on the train (inc tube)... only 35 ish miles away from hitchin...

I have heard that there are mpegs on the internet of Nagata San getting done by our police after his burnout and 200mph run! Have you seen them I\'m still looking, one I found wouldn\'t download.

I can\'t remember, it\'s either my Duke Video Skyline DVD or Newera DVD, they show him drive a Skyline through a Tokyo tunnel, 0-200mph, even with the launch control and all those gizmos the back is flying out for a couple fo seconds, he shows no emotion at all it is very amusing to watch.

What spec RX7 you have?
Title: Pics Of My Rex
Post by: J4P RX on March 03, 2004, 08:08:19 AM
I posted the full option footage of Nagatas A1M run on here.  Doing a search for Nagate should find you it!
