adnanshah247 Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Well, the altezza kept me going through winter and after it the paint took a battering from the nasty salts etc. thankfully no damage to the paint just looked a lil flat. Visited Flow Tech in Romford and had the mid silencers removed and put in a straight pipe, car feels more fun to drive now and the engine sounds very raspy! Bolted on some brand new 18" Lightweight wheels which have really boosted performance and handleing. Suspension was a bit wrong when i got the car so sorted that all out with new springs. In the pics, i gave the lacquer a cut back and very detailed thick polish, a complete detailing session. let me know what you think:- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DannyW Posted April 9, 2010 Share Posted April 9, 2010 Nice car, which engine is in this one? the normal 3SGE or a BEAMS? what's it like on fuel? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
adnanshah247 Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 is the beams engine, honestly its really good on fuel! if you rag it, it does drink but normal day to day driving, its quiet and comfortable. you cant tell its a beams until you drop the gears and get the revs up, then you hear the yamaha engine! sounds like a bike! the engine has a very nice kick to it and the gearbox is brilliant, its the auto-E box, no matter what speed your at the gear changes when you want it to instantly.

adnanshah247 Posted April 9, 2010 Author Share Posted April 9, 2010 Very nice car Adnan:cool: when you swaping it in for a supra? im not trading it in now. this car is awesome, driving around city (what i do a lot) its just brilliant. comfortable and quick when i need to chase somebody in traffic lol. going to save up and get a meaty sup, put it in a garage and use it when the moments right rather than a daily driver, petrol prices are a joke.
