I suggest the Rally Look, seeing as they were never really given the chance to do damage in the WRC..

I suggest the Rally Look, seeing as they were never really given the chance to do damage in the WRC.. I want to m0ove the intercooler for a start, how silly putting it in the hottest part of the engine bay???? So the bumper will be cut and the intercooler placed at the front of the engine. I wouldn`t mind the rally look but car would have to stay black. Headlights need replacing for quads if possible as it looks too much like a sunny for me. Wheels have gotta go but in good time, not in any hurry. K & N will be moved to the underneath of the car to get constant flow of cold air instead of warm when engines hot

Japanese have it right with motors methinks, if only our country followed suit.

bin the top mount off, no point in repositioning it just get a front mount kit. Always liked these cars, gearboxs are prone to failure at around 300bhp, also big wheels can cause headaches, some people say keep with 15's some say 16's are the best. Hope it all goes well with it. Here's one from passionford.com..... http://passionford.com/forum/showthread.php?t=224634

Thanks guys, any hints appreciated The spotlights were painted black for some strange reason? well i`ve cleaned them up now and they look a lot better. Also painted the lettering on the tyres to take the eyes off the crappy wheels Pics....

The cleaned spotlights look awesome mate. Mad why they were painted to start with. Also, an idea for wheels (may or may not agree), theyre fairly expensive and rare, but a nice set of white 5 spoke compo's????? Have you thought bout Mudflaps as well (Colour etc)...once its all done, they really help finish the look off, as well as keepin the back clean I know a lot of people dont like them tho to be honest

i can assure ou all its extreamly quick i must say my 2.0ltr 130BHP mondeo was stuggling to keep up with this car.
TBH Id be quite surprised if it didnt leave you for dead  They are 225bhp std, with 4WD. Very very similar SR20DET to my old 180SX, though the diff/gearbox reliability is questionable at the 300bhp / 300ft/lb mark and on the roads they have a tendancy to understeer. Ive driven a few - very quick out of the box, but Ive always thought they where a bit unentertaining to drive If you need any help with the motor....

Very nice Toto, im with you on the tyres tho, the white writing looks cool.
Just keep hold of this one for more than 5 minutes.
White alloys would look smart and a FMIC would be a beast. Headlights look fin imho, what about just some eyebrows for them and a new grille.

Bit stuck on this car at mo as its not registered yet, need time to goto DVLA, work work work at mo Don`t worry, i`ll be keeping this as well as my MR2 Cheers stuey Like the idea of the white alloys (spinkings alloys are real nice) something similar to those with a deeper dish would be cool. Gonna see if i can get a bonnet pod for spotlamps but after the MOT as i think they will fail

white wheels will look great without the tyre paint, u'll look like a floppy wristed fooker with that and the new wheels lol - i remember a guy down my road used to paint the tyres on his pug 205 religiously about 10 years ago, god it looked awful... each to their own tho lol
saying that, im the same with regards to the light pod - unless u're gonna rally the thing there's no point - they r only there to serve a purpose, so again, unless u plan on rallying ur car...
just my opinions of course

Painting tyres with what? Tipex! Lol  had a day off today but got called into work i was hoping to pay the DVLA a visit to start the ball rolling on this too The light pods will be a nice feature to the vehicle and i don`t like having the same car as everyone else, the pods and tyre paint will differentiate my vehicle from all the other pulsars out there and i wont be branded a copycat (so to speak) if that makes me look gay then so be it, at the end of the day i`ll be the one laughing when people taking the piss are just a distinctive dot in my rear view mirror

Im happy one of my ideas has been properly thought about I was gonna buy a universal Lightpod for my Micra, cos I do eventually wanna rally it. Thing is Davey, people who make the car look like rallycars, only ever go as far as Mud Flaps, and a showcage. Thats it. To get the lightpod on the car would look fantastic, and show the car what it was capable of back in the day. LIGHTPOD LIGHTPOD LIGHTPOD Heres the sorta thing I want for the Micra...similar idea to the Sunny... ![[Linked Image]](http://i.pbase.com/u21/jimded/upload/13357285.micrarallycars.13.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://www.compucars.co.uk/dealers/pagephotos/3433.jpg)

Yup, its the old works Nissan Micra Kitcar, Giant Killing 1.3. The lights you want are more oftenly used on the Imprezas if Im not mistaken, sure it wouldnt be too difficult to transfer them over. ![[Linked Image]](http://www.designercars.net/biler/Subaru-model-97.jpg)

When ya get a car as crap as mine, you need the wheels to make it look good.
Pulsar GTI-r tho, is a car that doesnt need messing with too much.

When ya get a car as crap as mine, you need the wheels to make it look good.
Pulsar GTI-r tho, is a car that doesnt need messing with too much. They aint crap, your just used to it (i`ve had a few & loved them) Aye, but i dont like the wheels that are on the car guys, now if they were like the ones in the pics here.... ![[Linked Image]](http://i71.photobucket.com/albums/i158/clowo16v/Image013-10.jpg) ![[Linked Image]](http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v68/lloyd26/DSC00569.jpg) i`d love em, but i cannot find any for a good price. The ones on the car will be for sale soon

Thought about a set of White 5 Spoke Compos???? Also, the wheels on the Fiat are blatantly Go Kart wheels, with normal Road tyres stretched over them hahahaha

Ste - you have some strange tastes lol Personally I like the wheels on it - not to sure about the white lettering on the tyres  but the wheel on the back looks too big, and the car looks like a micro machine, and those Uno wheels are too euro on a jap car....

Those wheels have been banded. If you take steels to a fabrictor, they will take the rim off, cut them in half and weld a strip of metal in, and then weld the lot back together again. I'd have steelies over alloys anyday, I've become sick of aftermarket alloys.

According to Gtir owners 16's are the ones to have. Their is a company who do banded wheels in the uk but they are expensive. Plus they are illegal on the uk roads. Jap 15's or 16's with a dark gold colour would look great. Some thing like these... ![[Linked Image]](http://www.autornd.com/catalog/images/large/RotaGrid.JPG)

so long as they wheels are certified they are perfectly legal, and to get those ones cost around 100-150 a rim

Unfortunatly this car was sold due to my impatience of getting it registered and the fact that i`m restoring my MR2 which will be costing more than i thought. Dave Murdock of MADD Motors now has it and John Barr told me before that he`s just blew the clutch out & asked him how much to fit a new one (funny, i was at Daves before & he did`nt mention it?) Tut tut, NEVER take one of these to the extreme! The clutch in this was perfect I have a Renault 5 GT Turbo & my MR2 MK1 now, the 5 Turbo needs a clutch as it slips VERY slightly in high gears when the turbo kicks in but i dont give a shit, i`ll just throw a new one in next week and wait for the head gasket to pop
