Nice car (though I think the new wheels look terrible on it)

So, £3k eh?
:think:
Something for me to look forward to when finished re-aligning the bumpers and getting them, the bonnet and boot resprayed on mine then! :D

Are you sure it had a jrsc in it? They Dont fit in 3rd gens.

It's overpriced, there's a customised one on e-bay and that's been dropped successively from over 3k to now 2.5k There was also a very late 3g on a j plate in staffs with a genuine 43 k miles on it, excellent bodywork dry stored etc.. and that was mint and only 2.2k. It's since disappeared off e-bay but much better value than the one being discussed. If it's worth 3 grand, bring it on,, mine would be about the same value, well, once the brakes are sorted!!

Jackson racing super charger. When you drop a haytch twenty two into a 3rd gen the intake mani to firewall clearence is very tight due to the engine being tilted back so far. A jrsc won't have enough space to clear the firewall.

I can't see the blower fitting in a 3rd gen like, clearance is tight. I did see the gold one for £2200 on eBay though, looked better than both of the others mentioned. I also agree with the choice of wheels, I don't know why people insist on fitting huge wheels to 3rd gens, I would say an absolute maximum of 16's.

stick to 14's much nicer, and the way Honda designed them.
