    hmmm... ideas ideas....

    i can get someone to make up a carbon one if you like?

    speak to "hansell technologies" or www.carbon-fibre.com or fibre lite (same company) and theyle do anything you ask them to..

    i might pinch that idea for mine, (although alter it slightly for my car..)

    that exhaust must be realy noisy...

    i mean, no back box... straight through?...

    and im realy thinking about the diffuser..... if i get a facelift rear bumper and take the gray plastic bit out of the bottom, a diffuser simalar to yours should fit... all beit smaller..

    so i would have a 1994 super S bumper in AJ4 for sale and wanting a 1.0 1998 onwards rear bumper in aj4 red....... but in just playing for now..



    any updates?

    his exhaust is extreamely loud!!!
    i thought about taking the grey bit out of the bumper, but you'd need a bumper off a >2000 micra, 98-2000 is like ians above.
    ian has taken the bumpers to his house to finish them off and get em ready for painting. so hopefully he should have some pics soon!

    what i love about ians setup is that the handling is totally sorted the brakes are spot on which means you can rag it senseless without worrying about loosing control.

    i wish i had good brakes!!

    Moved to blogs section, as for photos of Members K11s that has also been moved into the blogs section as it's not really a general discussion thread.

    the fuel flap is in his boot for the minute, and the windscreen is a job for a specialist installer as they are bonded in.

    anyway poeple have been banging on about GC13 auto blocks being stronger than than non auto blocks so having got one of eachf or the enw build i striped them down and have conclusive proof of which is better if any...
    manual CG13 :-


    and now the auto block :-


    as you can see there are aditional suports to the cylinder liner.. i was amazed when i took the gasget off andsaw it as i was goign to have the same thing done anyway but i got it for free lol so there is your proof auto blocks should be stronger than the manuals whilst its not a completly closed deck its better than notihng
