FLOL!
Anyone know where I can get one of those extra low jacks that isn't Costco (I don't have a card)?
EDIT: F**k that actually. I'll just build some ramps when I need them!

Expensive on there though.

I'll just get one from Halfords. Not paying a large premium for something I could solve for a tenner... lol!

Get a member on here to go to costco with you? That's what I did (thanks Tom)
To be honest it could be anything - I've not bothered to have a look yet as it's not really affecting the way it drives. My best guess would be the heat shield covering the exhaust manifold?
That's a fair call! I'll ask around.
I also need Rhys to sort me out an MOT... or at least point me in the right direction of one!

No problems. Sorting someone else out with one atm. I think it should pass regardless if the sills are okay, that said though, if it's not going to pass, he'll tell you and it just so happens he's one of the best welders I've ever met.
Also pretty sure Jon.G is a member of costco.

Yeah, it's just the sticking rear brake that I'm worried about - should be sorting that out as soon as the parts come and I get a jack though.
MOT runs out on the 12th IIRC, so need something sorting quick sharp.

If you were closer I could sort you out with two very cheap keys. Not in London anytime soon are you?
I'm never down south, no
I've been eyeing up a genuine Eunos key blank as they look real tasty, and then I'd get another cheapo blank for a spare. Don't want to start spending excess money on crap though! lol

It wouldn't be too much of an issue - but the key looks like it's about to snap
Best to get one cut, I only got one with the RX but it wasn't looking too smart.
Yeah, I'll just get a cheapo one for now. Key snapping would be a nightmare!

Flol at wanting to weld the diff after skidding at 20!
no doubt thisll be incredibly sexy in no time. I had a go of danmc's at the weekend with a welded diff. I can honestly say I'd kill myself If I had one as a daily lol!

Lol, it looks bloody knackered. That's the best thing about 5's tho, little money to get them looking sweet.
I hope you're better at building ramps than i am. Me and the Mrs took an hr, half a broken fence and about ten bricks before we could fit our 'low' Halfords jack underneath ours.

Jon, that would be absolutely brilliant! Let me know when we could go etc
I'll be able to make some progress this week when the various parts arrive, but lows etc won't be happening this month, I'm not made of money!
The horrible TSW's don't actually have terrible fitment, so I might be able to get away with them for a month or two if I get some coilovers... did a quick PS earlier and it didn't look so bad!

Oh, btw Adz I've not forgotten, just had a sh*t load on the past week with work etc. Expect a PM tomorra with your PS

Tell her she knows where the door is. Cya! Unless she either part owns or at least drives your car, I wouldn't say she has much choice in it

Shame you'd need adaptors.

^^ Yup, that looks pretty well like that! Must admit i much prefer the OEM splitter to the G Vary one.

Why not just wang it on some cheap wheels for now? I'm not feeling those.
Well, I'm going to be sticking it on cheap XXR's to start with (£380ish a set 15x8.25 ET0) - so there's no use wasting money on others. I'd get 14" daisies and just make it look standard if I was going to swap these out, but I think that's money better spent elsewhere!
Not going to get a G.V. lip; I much prefer the standard R-package lip, and I'm aiming to be too low to be able to have the G.V lip anyway eventually...
Really like SSR mesh's Gaz, shame they're so much to ship over here as adaptors wouldn't really be a problem at that price! Only 7" wide though

If you're after a cheap wheel initially 3DSM's aren't so bad. We got ours for £300. Copies of XXr's i guess but 15x8 et12.
That's not a bad price, but I'd rather spend £80 more and have the genuine items.. also, the XXR's I'm after are of a different style.
527's
or 522's
I'd be happy with either tbh, especially for the price...

Looks dangerous. I like it!
Look forward to more pics mate.
Cheers Gally!
It kind of is... rear end lets go very easily on these tyres! Makes for a few brown pants moments
