So most people will of heard of shed 3. Well i bought it three weeks ago. One hell of a trek to get it as well.lol cardiff - blackpool

but obviously i dont want to keep it how it is i want to put my own touches on it and I dont like to waste time so got busy with stuff.

First on the agenda was getting the engine to run better...to be honest it felt very under powered not sure if that is because i was used to the mk2 but hey...it goes like hell in comparison to what it did. still runs out of puf low in the rev range at mo but sorting that this sat i hope.

so picked her up looking as follows:



changed the following then within a few days:


and a damn good service. I also changed the tps sensor last night so much smoother now

also removed this little anoying thing:



i then set about finding some saph cosworth wheels and resprayed then graphite grey:



this is them on the car:

Then my suspension arrived and got that changed, 60mm on rear and about 70mm on the front it went so low the steelies touched the arches so temp fitted pepper pots so it would at least move to get me to work:



only pic i took as dark and cold.lol

Ive also already bought full RS arch and side kit and cossie front but its to low for that so probably going with RS1800 front end. The previous owner also nicely fitted a tidy stainless exhaust system

Anyway this is as she stands now.






havent got any good pics yet as been working flat out and when not its dark

large amount of updated coming within next three weeks. I plan on having the car nearly finished to how i picture it in my head before xmas

about time

can't see the pics at work

looks lovely mate, in such good condition too

Looks good

I reckon leave it as is without the arches, sideskirts and bumpers

Will confuse alot of people looking like it does now

Have you seen the pictures of when it had the black and blue leather interior in it ?

I guess you are replacing the interior as I have seen the ZS one in your for sale post

What suspension are you running ? Is it GMAX shocks and springs ?

Scott

why don't you buck the trend as it is giving you a bit of grief and break it? everyone else seems to be doing it






































(a joke clearly)
