firstly, my car is a 2004 GT model bought in november 2011.

 

this is how i bought it as you can see in need of wheel spacers lowering and a stubby aerial

i then found this on the web whilst looking for a CAI kit, so i ordered it from the states to give it a go

now the hard part but this is for you guys, I'm going to hold off fitting it till tomorrow when I'm at my girlfriends so i can get before and after videos. plus she likes to help do bits and pieces.

this must be how junkies feel.

Better get a hydro jacket for the filter mate. That will sook up water big time

 

+1 , i agree, the momentum performance is similar, but sits parallel to the crash beam, and avoids most of the water. either a hydro jacket , or dont drive it when its raining , and avoid all puddles etc etc

From what ive read doesnt a filter have to be submerged before water ingress becomes an issue?

 

Its from a company called b-line motorsport in the states.

 

Got a video tonight. Public road so not at full chat. Ill get it uploaded when i can.

Sounds nice. B)

Nice car and nice mods (you chav) :lol:

 

I'll watch with interest any further additions as your car is the same year and colour as mine - it helps with my lack of imagination !

 

Keep up the good work :thumbs:

After the incident with the paint I had a professional valet done on the car. This is how it came out. Not the best pictures. Believe it or not this was on a proper camera. Will stick to my iPhone from now on.

Small update,

 

Had a set of Michelin pilot super sport fitted in place of the falken 452s that were on before. 225/45/18 front, 245/45/18 rear. Only driven about 50 miles so far so not yet bedded in but they are a step above the falkens already.

 

Also ordered and awaiting

 

HEL braided brake lines

Yellow stuff pads

Rear arb uprated links and super pro bushes

Horsham grounding kit

 

To be fitted over the next week or so.
