Just a thought but with your car riding that low can you get a jack under the sill if you should ever get a puncture?
My sisters got a cooper s with something like 18-19" wheels on it and lowered and I know she keeps a length of 3" thick wood in the boot to drive up onto in case she gets a puncture for that very reason  s:lol: :lol: s:lol:

Looking good, you still got the Toyosport exhaust on? I picked up one dirt cheap and just fitted it, sounds a lot on the rattly/raspy side around 4000rpm, you got the same with yours? Never heard one before!

no just normal but if you want you could use plastic primer as a undercoat for the normal primer (Y)

Yeah mate i think thats the noise its meant too make, i like it IMO down the revs its quiet and it gets louder when you rev it hard.

been out for a blast again and i agree with you, i'm kinda liking the sudden increase in volume as you put your foot down and the deeper burble lower down the revs, makes up for mine being a pig to fit!

Can you two get a few more vids of the toyosport? Interested to hear more from it as you don't see them in person often

taken it off again Chris, went for a long drive and once it'd warmed up it sounded awful, no way could I live with the dreadful rattle from it when you booted it, it was way too loud! My advice would be not to risk it, I only paid 60 quid for mine so not a massive loss. Phill might have been lucky with his and got a decent one but I think these Toyosports are a bit of a gamble!   s:| :| s:|

just phoned up custom cages and i should be looking at £160 ish for my rollover bar, it needs too be welded but i dont mind giving it a go and it comes with extra bace plates so i can have a bolt in cage  s:D :D s:D  after i have it welded by a pro and powder coated it should cost me around £200-£250.
