Charlie

13's aren't an option they have to go on the yaris, I'm swaying more to the Cades due to price and fitment (and the missus prefers them)
 
I've bought the almera wheels and a single e30 wheel.

The mera wheels are going to be daily use, so the missus can curb them all she wants and I'm refurbing my bbs' to show standard (or near as)
 
It's all a cost thing, the mera wheels are £36 the e30 bbs is £25 and I already have another set of bbs' at my mums (not to mention the compo's, wide steels and slot mags)
 
Might be worth measuring the inner diameter of the barrels on those five slot steels, you could be able to separate those 7" wide barrels to fit to a set of stock centres.
 
Ok so most of you know the history between me and Charlie :) but no matter how hard I try (and in all honesty I'm not trying all that hard) to get rid of her and move on to bigger things, she just won't go

So here she is in here current state :)

Not going to go in to detail of any plans purely because if something happens I'll post it here :)
 
I can feel you... I only drive mine once every 2 months... but longer the better !
 
Not really done much, now back on four wheels.

Engine is almost back together just need to clean alternator (was very oily) and sort a few vac lines, oh and exhaust.

May have come up with a solution for bucket seat sub frames just need to wait till next weekend
 
One of my rear springs has snapped so I'm on the look out for a new pair, has anyone heard of these guys?
I think it was them that my friend was going to use before when he needed custom springs made, they're meant to be really good. The write-up on the 'street lowering' section is laughable though,
"If your Beemer 3 - Series has 500 kg of ice in the back and you still want a 60mm chop - We is the Main Man!"
"If your Corsa rolls like a jelly when your doing donuts in Tesco’s car park - steal a mobile and phone us first"
 
Right bit of an update )

Finally got one of the bucket seats in
