Yeah bro fully oem underneath bar the coilovers

Yeah im only 40 mins from fraser. Hes a good guy, knows his stuff.

Right, gun run prep is underway. The car went into japcom last week to get my to do list smashed out. First up was a mugen baffled sump. Fresh out the box with a new gasket, the spoon sump plug was kept for obvious reasons. Afterwards it was onto a service, usually i use 5w40 oil but was...

A free sunday afternoon means more progress on the lude. Today the wife finally got her nardi deep corn fitted to the car and it looks spot on! Meanwhile i took a stab at changing the speakers in the car. After uncovering the front ones it was clear they were long overdue. This one was the best...

Took the dc2 out for its first drive after winter and im not happy with some of the changes made the exhaust sounds badass but i cant posdibly take the kids out in the car and as amazing as the battlecraft knob is it sits too high so the throw of the shift is way too long and i refuse to buy a...

Big steps with the lude today, the coilovers finally arrived. Cant go wrong with bc too. Once i got started i noticed the front hubs were very similar to dc2s ect so it was like covering old ground. The rears were trippy as these obviously came with 4 wheel steering on certain models so the...

Cant remember the lads name but hes picking it up tomorrow

Well that was short lived. Deposit taken on it today, car goes away on saturday. Better luck with the next one

Saturday nights in the garage with the lads are getting more and more regular these days. Tonight was a productive one too! The engine bay was the main focus of the night for me, i wanted to throw on the new rocker cover, painted plug cover and fit the oem intake and breather stuff onto the...

Final cosmetic changes complete. Zerofighter front and rear tow hooks and a honda verno sun strip Very happy with the new style. Basic simple changes just to get the vibe im looking for. Time will tell though, i might go further i might go back to oem. For now the osaka style is where im at...

Couple wee bits done on the jordan tonight in prep for its mot. Firstly a battery stay and bonnet prop as they were missing. 30 quid ill never get back but hey ho. I also pulled the stickers off the battery to tidy it up a bit. I then pulled the plug on the srs light as the car has an ep3 wheel...

Its a shame, ironic that the breaker usually puts "getting rare now" in the post while litterally making it more rare

I mean it hardly justifies breaking good cars, that just makes the problem worse

With the upcoming track day looming ive started getting paranoid about the car not making it home so i got some bits n bobs to try and ensure i stay on track and the car stays mechanically sound. So ive ordered a mugen baffled sump, some fuchs titan pro s 10w50 and some ds2500 pads. I also...

Small update. Still waiting on a parts order so just cleaning up, and first on the hit list was the god awful spoiler raisers, free mods i guess but it has to go. Pulled the spoiler off, cleaned the threads and the tailgate then fitted it properly, much better! Next up was the glass, the rest of...

The wife decided she was sick of seeing the lude in such a state after 2 years if ownership she gave it a wash, de tar and polish, looks great from 20ft

I love a good thread, they have to be saved though. Too many of them get broken for spares even now

Oh too right! Got a small list of parts to buy just to get it a complete car and mot worthy then its big service and timing belt. Once thats done ill be looking into new arches for it but that wont be until nearer the end of the year

Had a spare minute at work so rattled together a new boot floor, ill make a point of doing a better job with some slightly thicker ply in the future but this was just so the boot was useable again. Also on the way home from buying the car it got very loud, turns out the genuine spoon n1 has...

Thats it man, ill get the outer and inner arches welded then get inside them sealed up. Hopefuly go for paint end of the year.
