Well i dont know how long this car will last but for now its staying and im having a lot of fun with it so thought i would keep a log of my progress.

The car is a 231 model with full service history. Well looked after and with all the recall work done. started looking like this after a quick clean and polish.

So when i got her she started perfectly and ran perfectly. However she quickly started to take longer to turn over so seeing as the last service was a while ago i have gone a bit mad. She has had new coilpacks, uprated leads, colder plugs and today some more toys turned up

Decat pipe and new hks filter will pick up some oil tomorrow for an oil change and an air filter. Hopefully the rest if the exhaust will turn up tomorrow and i can get that on there.

Old cat off god this weighed a ton

Next up as you all know i like to customize my interiors a bit so treated her to smd bulbs inside and out and then colour coded the interior trim panels

Snake pass speed cameras?
by el_bandido, 26-02-2021, 06:22 PM
Anyone been down there lately? I just want to know what the speed camera situation is there these days. I've heard there are up to 3 mobile cameras on that road at once sometimes, but the last "story" seems to be from around 2008.

It's a friggin 50 limit now which is frankly criminal.

Managed to give the car a quick clean and polish so asked a friend to take some photos. Enjoy.

After my previous project (Nissan Micra K11) had come to an end i needed to sink my teeth into something new. I've always wanted to learn how to drift,and this was the perfect base to start with!

It needed some TLC,particually the paint work,several patches had gone right through,so sorting that out was first priority aswell as a service.

The modifiying had begin with a Style Bar,Strut Brace,Digi Camo Graphics,TA Technix Coilovers and a set of 13x7j ET-7 Minilight Wheels
