Style Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Well after about 4 weeks of waiting, the new V5 eventually came through and I picked her up last week! Been a busy bee lately so finally managing to get some pics up now. It's a 1996 SZ-R 6spd with 66k on the clock and 1 owner in the UK before me. As far as mods go I think this is all of them: Blitz exhaust system Weds Racing Wheels TT brake setup Some unbranded cone filter Top secret front bumper and skirts Toad alarm Very happy with the car so far, can't fault it at all and the bodywork is unbelievable for that of a 15 year old car! Here's a few pics, hope you like them! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

d-_-b Posted September 9, 2011 Share Posted September 9, 2011 Very nice, do like the gunmetal supe's and looks in very good condition! Well worth the wait i would bet Would probably remove the stick on fog light - Heckler was doing a sale thread for a fog light pcb (switches over one of the rear lights) just an idea very nice though matey!

Style Posted September 9, 2011 Author Share Posted September 9, 2011 Also, I found this just below both of the rear seats, I'm guessing it's something to do with audio because the one on the other side still has a cover on it with a 'Vibe' logo. Other than that, I'm not sure what it is, can anyone shed some light? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a bit of a challenge to work it haha. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

a98pmalcolm Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 looks awesome mate.. just scrap the eye brows and get the fog light put in one of the reverse lights Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Style Posted September 10, 2011 Author Share Posted September 10, 2011 Thanks again guys, appreciate the kind words! I'll definitely get on to the fog light soon, it just looks gash sitting there and will probably be easy enough to move. I take it the eye brows just peel off?

Scott Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 Eyebrows will peel off. Best thing to do is take the lights out so that you can give them a good scrub once the brows are off. There will most likely be some residue. As for the foglight, there will be a wire grounded out on the body and a wire feeding back to the foglight switch in the cabin. Leave the feed as it will be your switched positive, this can be used for the proper foglight mod, but tape it off and secure it somewhere safely in the boot for when it comes time to do the mod. Just ditch the rest. The number plate surrounds are the same. Held on with adhesive tape stuff IIRC. They just pull off too but be careful not to take any paint with them, peel at an angle and gently. Once off you will need to get tar remover to get rid of the residue etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
letmeshowyou Posted September 10, 2011 Share Posted September 10, 2011 apart from the eyebrows (not to my taste) that looks amazing! I actually like the number plate surrounds, but don't just pull them off, there's a bolt at the top of each too. Once that's removed it's just tape.
