I plan for it to be an all round car, street, drift, drags, track, and shows.

I've had the car only 12 months, mite take a couple of years but thats the intension to build an all rounder.

I have coil overs and wheels comming next month.

The car is currently sitting in the workshop , im completing the next series of modifications.

Bit of a decent update,

Im going to include alot more pics this time just to give you guys an idea on how much work goes into getting things perfect. So much work goes into aftermarket products to make them fit like oem products.

Heres a few pics of my cf boot, the carbon has been laid perfect but the underside moulding was terribly out of shape cause the boot to fit okay but nowhere near the standard I want to achieve for this car. So i had to cut and remove the shape out of the boot and remould it to fit perfect, this took hours and hours of work to get right. What I ended up with is a perfect fitting cf boot which is really hard to get.

Reshaping of the boot, this was only the first stage I didnt get pics of the next stage.

Just a tip i found with taking pics of my car in sunlight; as your car also seems to have a pearl.

With my camera i have to press the button half way to focus, then continue pressing it to take the photo. If yours is the same, try to focus on something lighter (whiter) that is roughly the same distance from your car, then turn the lens to your car to take the photo. I found that the pearl "fools" the camera and the pic ends up over exposed.

Just to show you an example, i've added two pics of photos of my car.

This first i focused on my car, you can see the shot is totally over exposed. Have a look at the white 33 in the left corner, and the sandy gravel.

This second pic i focused on the white car, and i prefer to see my paint colour in this type of shade.

    • That's a short. Find the short. It will be somewhere between that fuse and the headlight. Start by removing the plugs from the back of the headlight and dimmer switches, and measure resistance to earth. Supply side (power from the fuse) should have none. The other side should have resistance compatible with whatever globe(s) is there (which is relatively easy to say for a normal globe, perhaps not as easy to say for LEDs). Anyway, if you have very low resistance, you defo have a short. Then you just have to run the wiring like you're running the bowel of a dog (on the operating table) that has swallowed something it wasn't supposed to.
    • Hey guys, need help figuring out why my driver side (RH) fuse 15amp keeps blowing. The Driver Sides Headlamp is out, i replaced these a long time ago with LED ones that were working for 1-2 years. Now, the driver side light is out and i traced it back to a broken fuse. I replaced the 15 amp fuse in the engine bay and as soon as i flip the headlight on, it blows the new fuse. Any idea what's going on?
    • I found the same with Subaru’s.  I own and love the SG9 Forester, after that model 2008+, Subaru threw the ugly stick at all their line up and somehow managed to make them look worse with every succeeding year.  lol
    • It's something we all have to consider as time marches on. Also consider lifted rally MX5 conversion at that point.
    • I should be fine for a few more years, whilst I do have arthritis I also exercise and do mobility training every day to keep as fit and healthy as I can, military life, which is the actual cause of most of my joint issues, has set daily regimes, which I weirdly enjoy I also train alot smarter now, not really focusing on lots strength or puffy muscles, I'm more focused on maintaining what I have for my future older self, I actually train as much mobility now as I do exercising Check out this "simple" drill I have been doing daily prior to training now for a while now, this has worked wonders in my all round mobility
