Sorry for the lack of updates recently! Have been hoarding parts and am awaiting paint before fitting them. Have some "experimental" aero which I'll be trying out as well as an odd rear coilover conversion, will see how that goes. Hope to be able to update with some proper progress in the...

I’ve bought some 2k direct gloss and a friend of mine has a workshop which he’s offered to paint the car in. It likely won’t be a show finish, but it should be pretty good!

Haha thank you! I have the other Noble seat hung up in the garage behind. I can’t wait to paint the car, it’s disgusting at the moment :lol: The wheels were a bargain too, I think I’m still less than £500 including buying the car haha!

The threads on the coilovers were absolutely knackered. I think a previous owner must have gunned on a nut which was either the wrong thread or just totally crossed it, either way they were toast (but this was why they were so cheap). A quick few passes with a die and they're nearly as good as...

And a few more random pictures :) I managed to get a hold of some Team Dynamics last night, they're 15x7 and I think they're the originals Pro Race? The blue is not totally to my taste so they'll get painted white at the same time as the car. Speaking of which, my paint turned up this...

Just a test to see if the pictures work. If they do, you should see my little track "starter pack".

It seems to give the /!\ sign regardless of the size of picture or how many/few I attempt to upload.

I'm having real trouble adding pictures here for some reason. The forum uploader doesn't seem to work and sadly my work PC blocks IMGUR which I normally use :(

I did consider a set of more JDM-style wheels such as some 15x8 Grid V's but think I'll grab some Compomotives or Speedlines. I am looking forward to seeing what it's like on the R888's :)

Still no pics (sorry about that, but imagine a green Puma covered in bird sh*t and you just about got it...) However, in exchange for helping a mate out, he gifted me a set of 195/50/15 Toyo R888's! They're slightly worn but were on his Golf G60 Syncro which at the time, didn't see the road on...

Absolutely! I was never allowed to mess with the Puma before, but now it's mine haha! And yes, I'm sure the values will start to creep up in the coming years.

I have heard they used to be better so perhaps they've just gone very downhill recently. Yes I always expect aftermarket to require a little fettling but this has been the worst haha

Thank you! I need to get some pictures so this isn't just a wall of text. Am having fun with it though, do love something cheap and cheerful!

Whilst I am waiting for my posts to be approved so that I am able to post pictures, I will take this opportunity to warn other members: Do NOT buy the Hoffman "Race Tube" if you are after a cheap exhaust alternative. The quality is hideously dire; the pipes are different sizes, the bends are...

Can anyone confirm if the rear disc conversion will fit under the stock fan blade wheels if using the ST170 parts? Thank you

Morning guys, first post here but have been mooching on the forum for information over the last few weeks. I'll try to keep it short and sweet for now as I don't have many updates (plus this is more for me to log my progress as am not sure how active the forum is nowadays?). Background: I...
