Hi all, thanks for the interest, they are now provisionally sold pending collection on Monday. If any thing changes I'll update the thread and send out PM's to those who have been in touch.

Cheers,

Rich.

Sorry dude! Always seems to be the way.

Really dose look good, the wheels look much nicer in person to.

Hi all, I've recently changed my side skirts and rear spats so I have these left over. The set is in good condition, purchased from tarmac sportz last November. The rear spats need a repaint, they are currently in Kuro black but as you can see they have quite a few stone chips. The side steps are still in black gel coat and have never been painted, the gel coat is quite chipped at the end where they take quite a hammering from stones. Could be repaired easily enough but it never bothered me.

Collection only from Farnborough, Hampshire.

I finally got the car back from the body shop today and I have to say I'm well happy with the results! It's tough to get a decent picture due to my tremendous lack of photography skills and the car being black but take my word for it, they have done an amazing job. The CS skirts and rear bumper fit perfectly.

I also gave the car a good going over in preparation for Wings and Wheels at Dunsfold tomorrow. If the weather holds up it should be a gooden.

The subframe for the Recaro seats also arrived so I fitted them to. I find them a lot more supportive than the oem seats which is what I was after. I may look to get them re trimmed in the not too distant future but that can wait as they are in fairly good condition.

Bump and price drop to £180.

Hi all, for sale I have a pair of seats from my JDM DE. These are non electric non heated option so will bolt straight in with no electrical issues. The only part you will need is seat belt plug from your existing seats as I have remove the ones from these seats to fit on my new ones.

Car has done just over 60K. I would say the seats are in good condition, just the normal wear on the drivers side bolster but no rips or tears. I've used Gliptone cleaner and conditioner on them since I've owned the car.

Collection only from Farnborough, Hampshire.

if anyone else cant make the meeting point please let me know, so we don't end up sitting and waiting there for you thanks

My self and james87 are coming from Farnborough so it would be better for us to meet at the pub to

Not sure how close you want it to be, but I take mine to TGM Sport in Fleet.

This.

I take my car there for the bigger jobs, body and paint. They have always been spot on. Don't think they will offer a while you wait service but it could be worth an ask.

Finished work early today so I thought I'd throw a sponge at her, go out for a blast and take some pics before the next body shop trip. I picked up a chargespeed rear bumper from cascade88 (Nice to meet you Luke) last weekend. It was a 7 hour round trip but worth it! That's being fitted this Tuesday and I cannot wait! The recaro subframes are also now in my local delivery depo according to the tracking number this should be a good week if all goes to plan.

And an arty one as I had the misses camera phone which is a lot smarter than mine.

This is looking awesome. I'm sure you already have it covered but don't forget to grind the nib off the front knuckle or it'll catch the SPL camber/ caster arms under compression.

Looking forward to future updates!

Im after swapping my cloth seats for leather seats however at the moment i have standard non electric/non heated seats.

If i purchased electic leather seats would these still be able slide forwards and tilt back and forwards without having to wire them up?

I'm potentially selling my leather JDM seats which are non electric so they would be a straight swap for you

Trouble is, the car is such a boring colour that it needs something to lift it. Front lip helps, as would bright centre caps + roof wrap + skirts + spoiler.

 

All IMHO, of course.

 

I get ya, havnt had the car overly long and have been gradually changing stuff to my liking...I quite prefer the boring look! 😜

Should have kept your m3 then mate

Rays.

I will 100% have this if all the other people that have pm'ed let you down!

Update time.

The new wheels and rubber are on! I went for Yokohama Adan Sports and my first impressions are they are a great tyre. With the extra width upfront turn in and front end grip feels vastly improved over my previous set up and the steering feels just as nimble as with the Rays. The only downside I've noticed is a bit more road noise with the lower profile tyre but it's a small price to pay for the way the car now feels.

I've also swapped out my Berks test pipes for some MD art pipes. This had quiertned up the exhaust considerably, espically higher up the rev range. Don't get me wrong it still sounds awesome but has just taken the edge off the raspiness. I'm hoping it'll be enough to pass the brands hatch noise limit for evening track days (98dB) but I'll have to get my hands on a decent meter to find out.

I'm still waiting on my recaro seat mounts. Feels like it's been bloody adges now but I'm hoping they will come within the next week or so. I have contacted jdm distro and they have informed me that they need to be custom made, I wish they had been a bit more up front about the waiting time when I ordered them but hey ho, you live and you learn.

Took the car to Thruxton for a skid pan session which was a giggle. If you have a spare hour on a Saturday I'd highly recommend it. You car will get covered in concreat dust though so be prepaired to was it when you get home!

Great pics dude! Thanks for making the effort

Such a great venue and couldn't have asked for better weather. The fairlady winning was the cheery on top! Thanks to those who organised.

Very nice mate.

Sorry mate, all now sold. Thread can be locked please.

30mm at the back may be pushing it if you are on stock tyre sizes. I ran a 25mm all round with no issue and that looked spot on to me.

Hi just wanted to know if you would take an offer on them

Try me

One pair sold.

Hi, no sorry these sold a while ago. Thread can now be locked
