    Thumbs up Llamas' Galant Project Progress

    Ok folks, Here is the beginning of my hopefully pain free experience.

    First off, here is the car as she stands now





    As you can see, completely bog standard.
    Plans are as follows (which will inevitably change from week to week depending on my mood

    Exterior

    TOWBAR REMOVAL!!!!!!!
    Facelift Front
    Some bonnet work (Maybe Evo Style Vent)
    Spoiler
    Facelift skirts
    Some minor Graphic work (tastefully done of course)

    Ice and Security

    Double DIN DVD/CD player with Sat-Nav
    Alarm/immobiliser with Total Closure, Remote Engine Start and Passive Arming

    Engine

    Full service (using Iridium plugs, Magnecore Leads and Semi-Synth Castrol Magnatec
    Stainless Steel Cat Back Exhaust System
    Induction Kit
    Engine bay clean up and colour code
    Some under bonnet shineys

    Interior

    Momo (or similar) steering wheel
    Momo Air Leather alu-leather gear knob
    Carbon Center console

    Wheels & Braking System

    16" Multi Spoke Alloys (Similar to TSW Imolas) Maybe Anthracite Coloured
    Braided Brake pipe
    Red Stuff Pads all around
    Green Stuff Grooved Disks all round


    and probably more to come as the weeks go by. I'll try and put as many piccies and descriptions as possible (Maybe even prices and Shop/Garage names if allowed).

    Ok Wish me luck guys (i'll need it)

    Close - but no banana!

    The hole where the snorkel connects to the airbox is quite a bit smaller on both the V6 & 2.0 than on the VR-4.

    There is a comparison here: http://www.clubvr4.com/forum/showthr...754#post365754

    Why not become a full member of CVR4 and enjoy the additional benefits membership brings?! Information here.

    Started the modding now. Only a simple job (I thought lol) but one I desperatly needed to do, just need to finish it off now as i ran out of time earlier.

    Before


    After


    YES! The towball and attachments have been removed, just need to take off the bar now and I'll be a VERY happy bunny

    **Please dont ask about the hammer, its the first one I found**
