Daves 1.8 Jspec MX3



  • had the car a wee while now and wanna do more to it but no idea what :S

    My future intensions are to fit a 2.5 so dont wanna go buying engine mods,Im looking to get a K&N apollo as i can change that over but what else can i do just now :S

    Ive just bought kyb shocks all round so not wasting money on coilovers just now until ive at least had my moneys worth out these

    what can i do :( lol



  • do the manifolds, de cat ( if possible ) and do exhaust. This will bolt straight onto 2.5 when you get around to doing it so a good investment.



  • Wee update on the interior sides of things, still plenty to be done such as pedals new wheel and floor mats but I am happy so far

    this might look like a new stereo to you all but i got a 2nd hand dash/speedo sorround and new air vents as all my plastics were broken i had no air vents and a half broken single din stoorage and a crap stereo that stuck out a mile

    So big visual upgrade making me feel better about the car already as everytime i was in it, i felt terrible looking at the mess of it



  • if u dont get a swap for the rota's and end up selling them cheap make sure u ask me first dude, take me awhile to get money togeather but i really like them



  • im looking at a set of 17's at the moment so if i do get them will be selling them for £350



  • need to do something with the pedals soon, theyre an MOT failure like that.

    Otherwise looking good with that huge stereo



  • I got pulled over the other day (left my show plates on - PLUM!) and the copper reckoned no rubber on a pedal is a £30 fine.

    Can't confirm this 100% - smells fishy to me though!

    My clutch rubber had worn right off!



  • what we thinking guys replace the alloys?

    There 17" alloys And i do like the look of them and i dont normally like alot of alloys, I really wanted 17" Rota Grids but i need to sell my current to afford them

    I just dont like how my cars stance looks its lowered but it just doesnt look like it is with 15" on it I can get they alloys for £100 and sell the grids for £350 the alloys in question come with 4 brand new tyres so its a win win

  • Well went away to get the decat fitted today and have to say the car sounds great!! done a 30 mile drive to the exhaust place with no cat pr de-cat on the car so had a big chunk out the exhaust missing what turned out to be a facinating drive!


    Got the de-cat fitted and sounds feels alot better :) not got a good video as was enjoying the B roads drive back :D !


    Video

    All in the de-cat cost me £20 a local scrap yard gave me £30 for my old cat and the exhaust place charged me £50 to supply and for the de-cat, bonus!

    now to refit my shit induction kit and save for a K&N apollo 8)
