Well lads havent been on here in a good while. Since I was on last I had to part with me e10 saloon unfortunately so had to get something to replace it. So I was flat out checking the net and this popped up a red e11 facelift hatch. I had known the car as it was only 5 mins down the road from me. I had known it was a small bit rought around the edges but knew there was no rust so I said I'd go for a look at it. Went down with my brother as hes a mechanic and would give it a good look over for me. When we went down we took it for a spin and it was slightly down on power but he said its only the plugs or coilpack so nothing major. The bumpers will need doing along with the bonet. I got it for very handy money so I'm just concentrating on getting it back to as close to showroom condition as possible. Any of the bits that it needs I can get in work so it should work out cheap enough. Then in a few years I've plans for it maybe a 20v blacktop or a vvtli engine out of a celica/t-sport corolla.

And a few other pics I took

And I was a show and shine event today got a domo teddy,domo sticker,yellow h3 led bulbs for my spots and got a spirit of competition sticker went to put that on the windscreen but kinda made a mess of it so ripped it off but ill get another one for sure

Domo sticker on the back window
I also got hb4 osram nightbreakers for the dips need to get hb3s for the fulls. I havent these fitted as I'm waiting to get the others. These are said to be as good as hids so I said I'd give them a go. Heres a pic of the fitted to another car quite good light out of them.
Anyways lemme know what ye think lads.
Cheers
Kenny
