Hello all,

Have had this car for a while, but have decided to slowly restore it

Current Spec:
Stock B16 (160hp)
LSD
ABS
PAS
ALB
Glassroof
Powerflow exhaust
Mugen RNR's
Biltstein Shocks (I beleive)
Unknown springs (text on them says "Potenza")
Properly mint interior (no fade, rips or tears, just full of empty fag packets)

To do list:
Wheel refurb
Sort window seals out
Sort Key mark on rear qtr
Remove windscreen, repair bubbling rust and replace (apparently a pig of a job)
Repair Paint fade above windscreen
New steering wheel
New AirCon control consol
Strut brace
New drivers window (en route)

Not really sure how far I will go with modifications etc until I know what my work situation is. Currently it is my DD so any plans for mods will come once I don't need to rely on it. Ideally I'd like a B18 or B20 in there but I'm looking for ultimate reliability as I do not have a garage.



I was thinking about selling it and getting an S2000, but it went for a new wing and partial respray last week and i missed it too much lol.

Thanks for looking

Dave

I had my first experience of 'TEC in one of these as a passenger. I'll never forget it smile

It's nice to see one that hasn't got a ridiculous spoiler on the back. Welcome thumbup

I've actually had the spoiler taken off and had the OEM holes welded, sanded and reprayed smile

Looks really nice. Prefer it without the spoiler smile
