BC's are on! Not had a chance to take any proper photos, perhaps I will on the weekend.

Doesn't look much lower? What's the drop?

SonicSW20 · Post by **SonicSW20** » Wed Mar 18, 2015 5:30 pm

I've not measured it.

That's next to a car at stock height for comparison.

Also, my Advans are ready!

Should go on this weekend.

Loving your advans mate

Where did you take them to be refub'd.

Thanks both.

Wheels were done by James (Cardhore) on here.

Got a 28mm Hoya OM lens on the weekend, so went out and had a play with it. Still struggling a little with manual focus / manual exposure. Getting there though. Car is looking pretty good I think!

Big fan of Advan SA3s and SA3Rs. Suit the car perfectly.

MR2's and RX7's are among the few cars that can actually pull them off IMO. Some S bodies can, but it's a bit hit and miss with them I think.

A few from the Norfolk run on the weekend. Made good use of the fresh oil!

What's better than staggered 16inch Advan SA3's?

staggered 17inch Advan SA3's with polished lips, of course!

Seen gazza's car in person and its mint .. love the advans .. will be watching with interest

Not much to add, just general maintenance. Nothing exciting! Glad I got rid of the T1R's at the front, much more grip from Ultrac Sessanta's.

Looks smart

Thanks Red.

Potentially some big changes for it next year. We'll see how it goes

Ive been admiring this car for quite some time on FB

Clean, subtle but definitely making a statement... Not to mention your excellent photography

I'm Interested to hear about the plans for it

Thanks George.

If the right donor comes up (and I have the spare cash to buy it), it'll get a turbo conversion next year, hopefully. I don't want to pull apart a good Rev3 turbo to do it though! Needs to be a rotten / crash damaged one ideally.
