like that. Will lower the car and tighten the suspension
you would also need one of these[/QUOTE]
It already has bespoke Eibach suspension, you would have to be a bit of an idiot to mess with any of the handling components of a FRP, you wouldn't be able to improve on it. The only real upgrade you could make would be to source and fit the optional LSD.
I still thing your car shoud be lower.
and LSDs are overrated .. :D

I have seen one of those numberplates before in the UK. What country is it?

Yea I agree it looks a little high but I would never ruin its handling just for looks. And the LSD was optional because even though it gave a tad more grip Richard Parry Jones the "driving dynamics guru" at Ford felt that it removed a small amount of feedback through the wheel when being driven on normal roads rather than on the track, so it was a track-spec option.

The flag on the plate is the same as the flag in my posts and if you click it you get to the wikipedia page of Norway :v:
also it's green because it's a 2 seater car but I'm gonna get white plates so I can put up the rear seats and have a 5-seater eventually

Thought so, also I couldn't see the flag on your plate as its too small and I'm using one of those tiny netbook laptops. Interesting fact there too, thank you!
You register how many seats your car has? Weird laws. And why does it have whitewalls :v:
Well it's not about how many seats your car has but green plates are for cars like this:
[img]http://www.frydenbobilutleie.no/bilder/bilder/bilutleie/varebil/lite_Renault_Kangoo_2006_6w.jpg[/img]
and we call those two seaters with big space in the back for "varebil" and that translates to ware car in english but I have no idea what the proper term is if there even is one. But yeah it's registered as one of those and if I want 5 seats I gotta register it as a "personal transport vehicle". And yes we got weird laws...
Also no more whitewalls:

vans
[editline]24th October 2011[/editline]
my dad has a mondeo van
[editline]24th October 2011[/editline]
he saves ~300€+ in diesel tax because it's smaller for vans
Well in Norway we consider vans to be these:

Those are the only cars we use the word van for :v:
here too, but it's just registration thing. There's lots of 2 seat estates that have been registered as vans so the taxes/insurance is smaller

Commercial and Private? Though your 2 seater Jeep is a commercial vehicle at a stretch...
the license plates have nothing to say if it's commercial use or private. It's just what type of vehicle it is registered as. Van or normal 5 seater car

Ah right. Also,
please. We're European. Lets call them number plates ;) Hahaa
W.I.P, i was going to wait until i did the whole car but it's going to take a while (Gotta sand down some bondo that's cracking, maybe get some more filler on it) so here is what it looks like now. It shows every little dent and scrape but i think it still looks way better than it did.

hell yeah I'm going for an all black look with my Jeep too

Still think you should take some body panels from a turbo II before you did that. :(
Like this hood, and a front end.

But it's not a turbo 2...I wouldn't have anything to show for it, "Oh sweet a turbo RX-7! Oh wait it's just N/A nvm..."
[editline]24th October 2011[/editline]
That and i couldn't find any running rx-7's, let alone a part one.
[editline]24th October 2011[/editline]
Let alone a turbo 2 part one.
I bought a DSLR.

Anyways, back to normal.

I keep getting compliments on the wheels. Didn't care for them at first, was going to run them for a day and swap back to my VXs, but then so many people have told me that my car looks nice with them on it, so I just left them on, fuck it.
Shit, storage as low as $35? I'm sold!

i've been trying extremely hard to find a nice semi-clean crx where i live, it's really hard to find one without honda cancer.
[QUOTE=Second-gear-of-mgear;32933987]Great comeback, how long did that take you?[/QUOTE]
I didn't realize we were five, awe so cute, with the exception of your idiocy, back to cars.
Edit,
In regards to the CRX. a friend of mine wants to trade me his for my 91' Crown Victoria. I'm not really a honda fan, or anything foreign fan...But I like the old CRX's, but when I saw the shape it was in, well...It wasn't good. 250k miles, horrible body, rust, and is only dishing out 40hp...Hah. They're really hard to find anymore.

The red 'Rex has it, my old black one had it but was repaired (Now belongs to facepuncher Japfeiffer), Japfieffer's old blue EG has it... My hatch is the only Honda I've owned that is 100% rust-free.
