*BREAKING* James Judd's Forged 1.9 Mk3 Ibiza HTA GT2868R Build *BREAKING*

[James.Judd.1]

Picked up a set of BBS RK's tonight I just sat them in the arches seeing as I have no hubs/suspension but I think they have potential.. I definitely like them alot more than my speedlines

 

[joehirth]

Much prefer these

 

[James.Judd.1]

Thanks Joe!

Here are a few better pics taken of the wheels.
I am going to get them refurbed in BBS Brilliant silver and wrap them in some 205 45 16 Yokohama AD08's

I also just bought some OMP RS Seats & Frames, excuse the poor quality pictures I will get some better ones when they arrive.

Always liked BBS wheels mate and they really suit the car. Seats look sweet aswell

Thanks mate, they are indeed! Just being used to prop the wheels up as the car actually has no suspension at the minute

Haha maybe Tom, they take too long to machine to mass produce, I may do you a set if you give me your bonnet though
Ha ha you need to make me an offer on it with the yellow bonnet

I got as far as drilling the diff bolts out:

Box will be going back together on Saturday when James comes over with the cases and the Peloquins.

[joehirth]

Looks amazing, love it. Can't wait to get mine now !!

 

[Berg]

Looking good mate, this thing should be back terrorising the tarmac soon?

I need one of those diffs in my life, exiting corners is so irritating in my car lol

 

[James.Judd.1]

Cheers Guys!

Berg - No deadline in sight yet, I'm enjoying building it too much

Had a fun day today, decided to strip all the interior & remove all the sound deadening.

Dash is coming out for flocking tomorrow, and to remove the final bits of deadening behind it. I will also be removing the remains of the aircon from the blowers, any wireing that is now redundant & both airbags.
The seat rails need removing & I am going to go round and hack off any brackets or what not that arent needed.

Anyway here is a few pics of the progress so far

And a just to show what mess the sound deadening leaves behind!

More updates tomorrow!
