Nothing complicated. I didn't want to spend a lot and no matter how I tried, I kept missing out on other cars (five in total) I fancied a change of direction with cars and also need to sink just about every spare penny into the house rather cars. So, anything I bought needed to be tough, reliable, fun and cheap. Unfortunately this meant it was also likely to be slow......

In a nutshell it needs a few bits doing to it, Trev did me a cracking deal all together as he sold me some more wheels and a steering wheel too :)

This will be put to day to day duties, the odd bit of dicking around on tracks, Santa Pod and even the possibility of a euro trip or two.

Not something I intend to modify to within an inch of its life, but something that I am sure that I'll enjoy massively and all the more because the whole thing will probably cost less than a GTR clutch.

Thanks chaps
It's an 1800 16v. The wheels are SSR Integrals. Forged JDM alloys at 6.5kgs each. I also have a set of Compomotive MO's on the way and some R888's too.

I genuinely don't think that the modifications will be extensive. Kind of defeats the object.

We'll see how light they are next weekend Trev, when you and me line up at the Pod. You with your lightweight R888 shod 15's; me with my big old pimp hoops and unknown tyres :)
Bring it on :thumbs:
