    Very very nice, congrats , a fresh sight compared to the white JDM square headlight ones.

    are those fog lights standard or aftermarket?

    there a optional factory fitted extra, at first i wasnt too sure about them, i prefered the standard non fog light bumper but they have grown on me, the front light setup looks stunning at night :D

    holy crap thats a clean engine projectgtr, very nice, the engine bay isn't much to look at, i'd like to get the rocker cover re painted and detail the whole bay a bit but will stick a pic up tomorrow anyway


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,462 ✭✭✭projectgtr


    Thanks i plan on keeping it that way :D just going to loose the induction kit for a standard airbox with mods and a drop in

    I think there is a b series rocker cover on dtdirl for sale think it was brand new ill see if i can find you a link, how are you finding it compared to the Focus? im so looking forward to mine just need to find one more recaro and im set :o

    its some car to drive, really fun on the back roads, still getting used to it so i've been taking it handy, vtec is some job, the noise it makes is just something to behold.

    overtaking has significantly improved also, no more being stuck behind buses on the way home from college :D have yet to get used to the hum it makes on the motorway at 120kmh though


  • Registered Users Posts: 2,462 ✭✭✭projectgtr


    yeah everything im looking forward to :) and the bits im not :(

    Not too sure how it will take to the country roads, and im really looking forward to the comute in the mornings with the hum allright, sure i supose it will keep you awake :) on the other hand the recaros are so comfy.

    Have you any plans for it?


  • Registered Users Posts: 18,272 ✭✭✭✭Atomic Pineapple


    yeh the recaro's are some job, you just sink in them and your stuck there for the drive :D

    the 4th gear is crunching so the synchro must be gone so have to get that soeted under warranty first hopefully....

    as for plans...

    its got a **** air filter on it so was thinking about putting a k&n filter on it if not then an oem one.

    thats it for now, i'm still in college so i'm gonna keep my money for maintaining and servicing it then will see about upgrades next summer, it needs a respray when i get the money for it anyway
