My (slow) progression thread
Not updated this for a little while. Got a few changes happened over the past few weeks all in aid of getting the car ready for the shows and meets over the summer.
First off, I decided my Buddyclub exhaust was just too loud so an opportunity came along for a very good condition Blitz-Nur Spec R system and jumped straight in.
Old Buddyclub at the top and New Blitz-Nur underneath, you can see the difference in quality there!
Next up was some shiny new coilovers. After reading around I decided to go with some HSD's from Driftworks, fantastic quality and ride comfort over the D2's i had.
And the new drop:
As you can see from that I have a hilarious amount of camber on the back wheels so I bought myself some rear adjustable camber arms and fitted those.
Next up is a full wheel alignment next week ready for my new wheels to arrive and fit those at the end of next week. Then it'll just be a ruddy good clean and she'll be ready for Japfest!
No wonder that exhaust was loud!
toxo I had a buddy club spec 2 on my MR2 for a bit... it gave me tinitus!

So the new wheels are finally on! Some of you have probably seen either at Japfest or via Facebook, but here they are...
A quick test fit before the tyres went on.
Then once the tyres were all fitted I managed to get them all on and the car cleaned the night before Japfest. Didn't get chance to adjust ride height at this point so not sitting low enough here.
A few shots on the way and back from Japfest.
Managed to repaint my callipers metallic purple and got some purple locking valve caps too
And finally, how she's sitting today.
She's going for a full laser alignment this week so once that's all done I can tweak the ride height a little more and she'll be spot on!
