Must be some crazy negative camber on their dude. And how low must the exhuast sit to the ground that low?

Looks awesome though!

Not being funny, but I will guarantee you have chunks of FRP missing within three months.... IMO, it looks too low, but that's my opinion.

You can't even drive on some blocks to get the jack underneath cos unless the blocks are about 1cm thick, it's no good hahahaha?!

I Took most of them, bar the pics im in. I'll check through as i aint checked right yet.. Well Kei's away to get SORN'd this week coming or next i hope, On the look out for another car the at the moment and Kei's going to be a winter project to get her up to spec sort of speak. I have seriously big plans over the next few months. Well not in terms of performance but in overall condition.

Going to working on her from front to back, top to bottom going over the lot and replacing almost everything.

mint said:
I think its only fair we treat her the way she needs to be treated.

I'll start off with a list of what NEEDS to be done, then go onto what i WANT done and then what we COULD do.

NEEDS TO BE DONE
-------------------------------------------------

-New Wheel bearings all round
-New Bushes
-Oil Filter sandwich plate fitted (For Pressure Gauge)
-Fix rear light
-New Exhaust System (ARC / HKS)
-New Air filter (ARC / HKS)
-New BOV (ARC / HKS)
-Sort Indicators
-Washer Bottle
-Grease brakes
-HKS Rev Stabilizer
WHAT I WANT DONE
-----------------------------------------------

I Want to go over ALL boost hoses and replace all that needs replacing.
I Want to go over the entire engine bay to check for useless cables / wire's parts that can be taken out. basically an entire tidy up of the whole car.
I have a list of everything im intending on getting over the next wee while and aim to get it done BEFORE she's road going again. So hopefully when the next batch of pics are out. Should be a tad different ;)

As per i'll keep you all up to date on how things go.

After the September JDMtas meet, Mr.Thacko Kun and myself proceeded to the other end of the car park to perform one of Kei Chan's last shoots before she's off the road till next year.

Iv taken over 20 pictures however i'll post up a few with the link to my Photobucket to see the rest. .. Its gonna be a tough 6-8 months without her, however.. she'll be back.. better than ever!

Enjoi..
















Here's a 1024x768 Wallpaper for you folks too:


And here's the Photobucket link : Kei Chan Shoot

Looking good mate, will need an extra 50hp to pull that sub !!! :D
hehe i know :p Iv gone years without a sub, and found it liein in my garage.. got bored so decided to buy new Fli cables and fit it. The way its fitted it can be taken right out which is good for some Daily Driving or some sideways loving. Hows it going mate? Not seen/heard from you in Ages! Will need to get a shoot done with our 15's some time if your keen. :wave:

Your right mate, i was at Asda and the pet shop (where you took those pics) a couple of weeks back, no sub (although i have one in my garage) but lots of dog food weighing the S15 down.

Yeh we will need to get a mini-S15oc meet/shoot sorted, just the two of us, will be cute :D :eek:

My insurance has ran out (never got a renewal/reminder) as has my MOT (oops), so once i get those sorted, and if its fine, will give you a shout.

Nicely - Nice Surf :thumbs:

lol... 'Dunelm' and 'NO Student Loans Required' signs aren't as nice for backdrops as Yokohama or Daikoku...


Car's lookin ace buddy - whilst the rest of us have boring and sensible looking 15's, it's nice to see a badboy example...

i try and ignore it the best i can.. lol, thankfully bank statment's keep me on the ground tho so i dont go totally over the top :p lol.

Just away to buy another car this weekend i hope, got a photoshoot on saturday for some magazine thing and then the fun begins! :p lol.

lol @ InitialD, I know however i thought the "NO Student Loan Required" was a cracker, me and thacko laughed for ages then a dude that was there thought i WAS a student and came out with "So mummy and daddy must be minted then eh!".. i was stunned, cheeky wee begger!

Cheers man, yeh i wanted to go for something a tad differant for the UK s15 Scene as the majority go with the Aero Kit and such so wanted it to be a but extreme and daft :p Exactly like the ones i seen in Japan. The looks pulled off so far barr my weak offset. Which will be sorted when she's back on the road with some new shoes :)
