Hoodedreeper's K11 RELOADED!!

[hoodedreeper]

Popped down to H&S today to get the car services and to have the SFS Hoses fitted:

Much better Even if they did have trouble removing/fitted the Inlet manifold hose,but they still managed to fit it without charging me extra even though it took longer than expected. Top work guys!

 

[Guy]

Looking great mate. Love the battery holder and air box cover as well (Y).

 

[hoodedreeper]

Thanks My next job is to have a major tidy up in the engine bay

 

[will930]

yes i think it did need it but some gunk and stuff and will come up looking good nice meeting you and thanks again for the spoiler

 

[hoodedreeper]

I usually clean the paint work up with GUNK before i head to a car show. But i mean a general tidy up with the wires/cables/pipes etc.

I'm in the process of getting bits together for a new induction kit and also something else in the pipe line to bling the bay up abit

Cheers for the link Peposhi finally found some :grinning:
but they do come at a price
makes me wonder why it is you can easily find them on ebay.com but not on U.K?
Surely someone in this country supplies them lol

 

[Shaun]

well they are from thailand.

 

[hoodedreeper]

Fitted my new Rocker Cover today:

 

[Grevs]

[hoodedreeper]

[karlj]

Nice (Y)

 

[markbognor]

Oh.
Yes.

 

[mullet]

ohh they look tasty

 

[hoodedreeper]

Wheels and tyres were fitted tonight:

 

[mintyfresh]

*drools*

 

[peposhi]

Very nice looking wheels, great match

 

[Grevs]

Oh nice!!!

 

[davey1991]

Gah, jealous very much, saw your polo in the flesh on Sunday when i went to steel the guys marbella, loved it haha.
Great style.

 

[pjg1979]

This car just looks great, just don't take it swimming like last time, lol.(Y)

 

[karlj]

That really is a car to be proud of hooded (Y)

 

[hoodedreeper]

Thanks for the feedback guys

Some day light photos:

 

[markbognor]

I think I actually prefer the previous set of wheels fitment. Could they use a bit of spacing out to reduce the offset a little? And I think I can hear it begging, it is, I can, it seems to be saying "lower......lower.......lower"

 

[mckenziecz]

nice flashbacks but not enough dish:blues:

 

[hoodedreeper]

Unfortunately the Flashbacks dont have that much dish. Unless i won the lottery and was lucky enough to import a set of genuine Work Equip 03s

I've got some 10mm spacers for the back to bring them out same as the fronts,but i need longer hub stubs. I wasnt gonna lower it any more but after putting the photos up on the forums,ALOT of people have said to lower it more.

Which is weird...cos they're exactly the same as the Dubs with the same suspension,but no one said a word back then lol

 

[baguete]

Very nice wheels (Y)

 

[hoodedreeper]

Had some work done to the Micra yesterday:

- CV joint
- Rear hand brake cables
- brake shoes
- drive belts
- longer studs & 10mm spacers fitted

Also sorted out the knocking/rattling noise,it was the exhaust hitting on the panhard rod.

Gonna sort out a few lil bits and pieces,get the smoothed bumpers back on and that'll be it. Got some insurance quotes for some other cars and its time to move on. Wont happen for another year or so but its definately something to aim for now

 

[will930]

you cant get ri of this car mate it is epic! and loving the new look i cant wait to see it with the spacers set up mate will help them wheels out alot and change its stance completely

 

[Guy]

Seriously awesome mate, loving it (Y).

 

[peposhi]

move on? you selling up?!?

 

[hoodedreeper]

Not just yet,ive decided i want a faster car,so instead of spending loads of £££ on this,its cheaper to go out and buy another car. Here are a few quotes i got,baring in mind nothing is a definate. Was just curious to see what i could get insured on:

S14a £933.00
R33 Skyline £1500
R34 Skyline £1500
Supra Mk4 £1300
RX7 £900
Astra VXR £900
BMW E46 £1200
350Z £1550
Golf Mk5 Gti £1000

The options are pretty broad. Renewal for the Micra is £850 with every single thing declared. If i can insure an S14a for not much more,it seems logical to get a different car.

But fear not! This wont be happening for another year or so

+edit+ this is the 1000th post for this topic
