Yeah was the 300 circuit. It is the tits, and they've left the bombhole alone as well which is great, as I love that corner. Took me 3 attempts to seal the sunroof blank, finally did it with an inch bead of sealer all around the joint between blank and roof. No coilovers unless I find a set v...

Haven't updated this for ages, so here goes. Loads done to the car since last update - SSC header and downpipe Decat Custom cat back Lowered 40mm on Spax SSX springs with stock dampers Momo steering wheel Loads more strippage including air con delete etc. Finally got it on track at...

Drivers side is now right, pax seat is still not level, but will probably get chucked eventually, so I'm not going to piss about with it for hours only to then bin it. MOT advisories (after all the welding was done) consisted of a chip in the windscreen and a note saying there was no back...

Oh yeah forgot to say that it's also just had a new clutch kit fitted, and last week the most important bit of all - So it'll be on the road for another 12 months at least! Wes

Been a little while since I updated this, so here's a few pics to show what's been going on - Interior now fully stripped out. All sound deadening gone (what a bitch of a job) and two coats of smoothrite on - GTiR seats in. Not a direct fit as I was told by the bloke I bought them off, but...

Bit more lightening done today, interior strip is well on the way :thumb: Few quick pics - Pretty much just door cards and sound deadening shite to go. Oh and sunroof, leccy windows, central locking etc. etc. Finally back to work tomorrow, so might be able to spend some money on her...

Been a little while since I updated this, so here's a little of what's been happening - Put the front strut brace on the right way round :lol: Disks and pads changed all round (stock pads at the mo) Toyo Proxes T1-R all round (much better than the LingLang ditchfinders that were on it!) A...

Not my cup of tea, but each to their own. Might be the photos, but the paint on your front bumper looks as flat as a witches tit to me. Wes

D'you know I was looking at it thinking it looked a bit odd. Another little job to do.....

Just a quick update, finally got round to getting the induction kit fitted over the weekend, big thanks to Sirmixalot and Quickdraw for supplying the bits. Anyway it's made up of a stainless hard pipe and big old cone filter, don't suppose it makes any real difference to bhp, but it makes a...

Spotted this morning at the security gate as I was going in to work (Air Livery). What looked like a nice tidy Almera Si with white alloys. Didn't know if it was anyone on here, but it looked nice :) Wes

Couple of things dude, you've put this in totally the wrong place, and turn your bloody caps lock off it's properly annoying. Anyway, I've had a very similar problem, and it's down to a bad earth. I started a thread on it here - http://www.almeraowners.com/showthread.php?t=34013 Wes

Can I just ask are these a genuine Nissan part? I really like the no fogs look, and if they are available from Nissan all the better. Cheers Wes :)

Cheers guys. To answer the few q's, mileage is 120k, few spots of rust, bit of scabbing on both rear arches, could do with a couple of front wings if I decide to tart it up, but the sills are totally rock solid, which is a result. Would love to come to a meet, but my job entails working every...

Having spent a bit of time reading things on the forum, and then 20 mins messing about with the dial pod today as there was a dodgy connection somewhere (now fixed I think), I'm not sure this car is entirely standard. The resonator box in the inner wing has been removed, and on closer...

Hi chaps, Thought I'd start a thread after taking a few pics over the weekend after a quck wash. I bought this car a couple of weeks ago as I started a new job so needed transport, and thought to myself 'what can I get that's properly cheap but still a bit of fun?' The car was originally...

Pics of some of the old motors for those that asked. Almera pic is nicked from the ad. Hope you likey. Wes :)

Pics to follow once I've picked her up and it stops raining. Initial plans are to fix the niggles - a bit of bubbling on the arches, the heater resistor needs doing, and no doubt I'll find some more bits that need doing. Then it's a case of finding out which mods can be done without spending a...

No don't suppose it will. The Soarer was modded to run 340 brake so it's a bit of an unfair comparison really! Wes

Hi, Just joined the forum after buying a 98 Almera GTi in Black. Picking it up tomorrow am, looking forward to the drive home. Always had a thing for Jap cars, and have so far had an Mk1 MX5, 2 Imprezas and a Toyota Soarer TT, will be interesting to see how the Almera compares. That's about...
