Project Retro JDM - Eunos Roadster

[JoeyD]

Do you still have the Advans?

 

[MaLicE]

fail on the tow hook, (looks s**t)

fail on being cheap and buying cheap coilovers that don't actually work and make the car worse lol!

not a massive fan of the yellow tint either... but the rest looks cool! stop being cheap on coilovers, they are the main control part of the car! you wouldn't buy bald tyres and wooden brake pads... why scrimp on something that is the major control part of the car especially when they f**k up that much and make the car look no better lol?!

 

[adam172]

looking very nice tom, but as you know rear needs to come down a bit!

 

[Tom 46]

Yeah, and still trying to sell them!! PM me if interested as im desperate to sell them!

 

[Tom 46]

Well after buying the BBS's i had just enough money to buy these coilovers, otherwise it would be still on standard suspension with rediculous ride height. I have full intention of buying better, more expensive coilovers once i have the money, these are just a stop gap until i can afford some new ones....still got the Advans to sell and a few more parts...im skint until i can sell some parts

 

[k1ngsk1n]

That's an awesome car, looks the cats tits!!

 

[sofaboy]

[Naith]

To be honest, if you offered me £450 id send you the whole lot! Wheels, custom adaptors, tyres and extended D1GP wheel nuts, so all ready to just bolt on The whole package cost me roughly £650-£700 so its a fair price i think

lmao, yellow tint is epic, thats why i bought a yellow car

Nah, not going for overfenders

 

[Naith]

if i'm honest it looks miles better on the Euros than it did on the scoob. the wheels are fantastic though, proper stuff, i dbet you'll still get stick for rolling them now too!

 

[Tunst]

Looking good mate, only thing im not a fan of are the tinted headlights...

I'll give that a good think. Would you sell without the tyres or are you just wanting rid of everything?

 

[Tom 46]

Would have to leave the tyres on, firstly because i cant fit the wheels in my car to go and get the tyres removed! And would end up costing me more money overall (money which i dont actually have!) So would have to leave them on....but at that price its like having them free

 

[JoeyD]

Aye fair enough, just thinking I'd have to sell them anyway which might be difficult due to the size of them! Lol
I'll have a rate good think about it and get back to you this week.

 

[Tom 46]

Okay cheers bud

Applied yet more stickers today, fully representing Drop Dead now!

 

[Hixle]

Not feeling the stickers Tom. The wheels, on the other hand, are fit. Suit it down to the ground!

I want one :dapprove:

 

[Philip.]

Looks ace, I think youve gone OTT on the back window though

 

[Jason_E]

Well, I like it. Lovely wheels too! Have to say.

 

[Christopher]

Looks decent enough but the stickers are ubergash. Especially the kanji on the windscreen... super try hard. :dapprove:

 

[Jason_E]

He should have got one of ours for the screen. :quiet:

[Christopher]

LOL. Irony is awesome.

 

[JoeyD]

Hahaha!

 

[Turkish]

Too many stickers IMO, worst offenders are the Kanji on the front and the clusterfuck of them on the rear screen. Would look much better with most of them removed.

 

[ipodsandguns]

I have the first ever drop dead sticker design on one of my keyboards. you can buy it off me.

Tom have it me in like 2003.

 

[Jason_E]

LOL. Irony is awesome.

I still consider myself genius for that design/slogan. It works on any car if you think about it.

/Iamawesometonight.

 

[Naith]

stickers are not cool, my ride wears them for a piss take to lemans, keep it pure. why rep these companies/scenes/whatever they are when they arent you?

or maybe they are i dunno, im not exactly cool...

 

[Tom 46]

Stickers are staying for now, you know what im like by now surely!

New exhaust soon

Genius?

You downloaded a free typeface and hit the keyboard, from what I can tell.

Next time your print a batch, kern the first character to be tighter to the rest of them, it just looks weird how it is now.

 

[chriscummins7]

I was thinking, Tom has done this proper... then I saw it from the rear

The stickers look hilariously s**t.

everyones a designer nowadays...lol

 

[adam172]

cant help but think the front wheels need a tad more poke then fronts and rear need camber!!

 

[mikey123]

Really like this (apart from the super gay stickers), and when the rear comes down a bit and the stickers fall off it'll looks sweeet!

 

[Daniel]

Back lowered a bit more, lose the rear window stickers and thats a cool car!

 

[Tom 46]

Wow havnt been on here for a while!

Lost the love for my car for a little while, so there has been no real progress for a little while. Think with my last year at uni being so hectic that i just didnt have any time for the car

But re found my love for it now, and the project is very much up and running again. Ill run you through some slight progress over the past few months, and the plans i have for this spring/summer.

Got some TSI intaks for the front end. This was just before winter mode.

Then winter mode. Took the wheels off and replaced them with my old steelies from the clio. Also found some MoonDisc wheel trims to freshen them up a lil bit

Also got round to fitting my HKS Super dragger exhaust

Whilst the wheels were off i decided to re furbish them and paint the centers a nice pale blue

Also got some new coilovers that you can just see in those pictures, to drop the whole thing down a bit

Sprayed the splitter yellow to match the rest of the car, makes it look a lot lower.

Got some BOMEX side skirts that need spraying. But should beef the car up a bit

Sold the style bar and bought a proper roll bar that still needs fitting.

Once the weather clears up a bit i should get all these things sorted and fitted, so in a couple of weeks it should be looking pretty good

 

[GeorgeH]

Superb! Any updates?

 

[Gaz.]

I know he was talking about selling the BBS and buying some Roturds.
