hi all bought myself a 1992 type r import earlier in the year thought best introduce myself.:wave
Name is Shep & am on the east coast in not so lovely Grimsby lol
picked the car up from Belfast & figured won\'t be many of these about & promptly met another guy (Ben) with a red Fd3s in the queue for the ferry, bloody typical..lol

oops but now know all about wheel hop...lol
have new skirts, spoiler,& front bumper to fit, & in feb have a different block to fit from Lee Mills\'s RX he\'s breaking, along with a few bits from him :)
so looking forward enjoying more driving :) which is now fun rather than a chore...hehe
Nyce car and thats a smashed pumpkin :O what are you going to do with the current bumper. lights and splitter?
Welcome Shep, thats one real clean looking car, well apart from the Diff :chat
Having done this myself in the past to my FD I know you must have a bit of power lurking under that nice shiny bonnet :mmmm
ty & yup pretty smashed, unsure as yet need to see the alternative fitted to make my mind up which one i will keep on her :confused: so is hanging atm
Like your wheels
Welcome rotorhead :)
I was @ the pod when this happened, damn shame, made quite a mess and was saying to a few of my :censored::censored::censored::censored::censored::censored:s that I recognised the FD and was sure it had been sold, gone over in Ireland and was now back over here, nice to know i was on the money!
Sounds like there\'s some nice mods in the pipeline :mmmm :3gears-rh
Nice looking car mate:Thumbsup!
You need to get a diff brace helps to prevent wheel hop

yer it was an eye opener.lol but if ya wanna play you sometimes gota pay a little more...hehe
tbh the car was pretty tidy but not finished as i would like so have done a few bits already interior wise, such as replaced damaged/loose rattly trim etc.
the main changes in the pipeline are the engine swap,strip the suspension arms etc, shot blast & polly bush kit through out & the skirts,spoiler & maybe the bumper, would love to get the wheels refurbed but may have to wait a while as a spending alot faster than earning atm....eeek
& lee the 1st thing bought even before i picked the car up after the repair, was diff & gearbox brace :) all fitted now :)
P\'s if the is anyone named GAZ in the club in the market for a private plate mine will be on the market soon unsure as to price but guess its worth exactly whatever someone will pay...lol
