Colour coded the steering wheel

Engine looking nice, gettin powerbox etc soon so wont look as good i think anyway


Does anyone care about the manifold, its all about the cool sock

iv got one of those exhausts, for if your thinking of going low they're not much cop, they tend to catch the ground really easily, so iv taken mine off and going to get a 4-2-1 manifold instead.

lookswell mate, but my honest opinion is to get rid of the bumpers and perhaps get some euro 1's or smoothed

[JG22-VXR]

thanks for replies guys, did your exhaust give much power mate? havent fitted mine yet & dont think i can lower mine on 17's lol. ive got powerbox on way aswell n hopefully get a 1.6 aswell. looked into it n ecu chip n 1.6 engine is around same price. the ecu give 5bhp the engine 16bhp. know which id go for. & yeah i wish id have got gsi kit tbh mate, but the car came completely standard expect it came with rear bumper n skirts on it. sooo i just brought front bumper to match really, i like it thou but would prefer it to be dropped on gsi kit but its too much to change now.

Looks good mate, I just got a brocade sport a couple of weeks ago. Not done anything to it yet, just took off the carbon evo bonnet as it looked too chav. What's up with your roof? my roof needs re-laquering as it's started to peel, the spoiler too!

[JG22-VXR]

thanks guys. ermm well my roof has been resprayed by someone before for reason i dont know maybe its rolled but was hpi clear soo i dont know. its quite a poor match to the car its more greeny soo guna get it resprayed in the summer, what plans you got for your brocade mate?

[essexjohn]

Gonna paint the arches and black trim anthracite, looking for some GSI or Steimentz skirts. need to get laquer peel sorted and better suspension. Apart from that i'm not sure mate.

[JG22-VXR]

very nice, should get the gsi skirts defo. get some photos up when u done it will look smart. i got my powerbox today, will put some pics when i have chance

[essexjohn]

Yeah will stick some pictures up on my diary thread when i get it done, waiting til after xmas til i spend any more on the car! check out my thread below for what car looks like, i'll get up a picture of the peeling on the roof tomorrow if i can.

[JG22-VXR]

powerbox n throttle came today, guna bang it all on next week and the exhaust manifold :

[essexjohn]

Very nice, are you keeping it as it is or giving it the gold treatment? I never got the chance to take a pic of my peeling roof as I've been helping a mate fix his car today, might get some tomorrow.

[JG22-VXR]
