Daffed's Variant

Featured Replies

Been on this website for a while now, eventually managed to buy techie's old variant about a year ago and in that time I have done nowt visually to the car. I've just done the pedal box, clutch cable etc etc etc, also done a service and done the cambelt which was long overdue. Installed a small amount of ice and that's that!. Been collecting a few bits and bobs for a little makeover, just waiting for the last thing to turn up before the mods begin. They will be very subtle but involve some more gravity, not in the way of air though!

Here's how it stands at the moment,

Riskie's is cool, should of stayed on the RM's in my opinion! Thinking about buying the plate T22DUB as that's still available lol

damn, where did you get that size? and how much that cost?

Found two companies in the UK that can supply them and the price was not as much as you'd imagine! It varied between £55 and £60 a corner. Had one fitted on the new rims and it looks good! ;)

wow those call for some wierd stretch surely....have you got any pics?!?!
