Love that Suzuki, it's a perfect little off road machine!

It's pretty good for on-road too, I think. :P

I'm starting to like it more and more every time I look at it.

Well, the clips on the fuse box in the engine bay were broken off so it was difficult to get in, when we did, it was discovered that the 80amp main fuse had been opened and clipped in the middle.
Definitely clipped and not blown as there was no burn markets, no white, black or blue smoke marks and not broken because well, that's impossible.

Someone that had access to the car before me broke it...
I've had this verified by a Nissan Technician.

Exact same problem with mine, but mine was blown, well the engine fuse anyway :P

I take it it's running now? Good luck with it!

CianRyan · 07-04-2015 11:05PM

Yep, as well as an auto Micra can run.

It's a perfect car except for a scrape on the bumper.
It's got 30k miles and I'm the 3rd owner!

First time posting in a while, car's running loverly! Swift springs installed on the coilovers, handling is improved... plus much more compliant and controlled. Very impressed with them! Few other bits done to it too, and have a Apexi pfc on the way :pac:

Quick nighttime pic

Haven't been on here in a little while, but this is the new jammer. Baby-sblythe is due in a few months time so the CL had to go in favor of something a bit more practical, hadn't intended to sell it so quickly but it went after an evening on the net. I haven't ever had a fast Jap car before so it's a whole new experience, and I am really glad I ended up going for it, I chickened out of a MK2 Focus RS and looked at a pretty ropey Evo X, but I really couldn't have gotten a better car in the end.

Excuse the lack of rear plate there but I'm just back from the vrt office having her reged. She's a 04 btw but still looking fresh as ever. Newest car I've ever owned.

Savage....
Was gonna ask you if you bought it near Maynooth, was behind one there a few months back.
A completely different beast to the 2.5 XT.

Quick pic from yesterday evening. Need to put the covers back on the wheels. They were off for the test.

Foxhole Norman · 08-04-2015 06:52PM

Making good use of the weather and having the car back 800km in a week

Mizen Head is the next target

Have the bumper on since last week. Only just thought to take some pics. Next job is a good polish and wash while the weather is good.

Duke O Smiley · 08-04-2015 08:03PM

Seeing stuff like that makes me sad I don't have a project car (yet).

Gavman84 · 08-04-2015 09:09PM

Where is that FN? Looks nice!

@Duke O Smiley - that's a serious turnaround in a week

top work

homer90 · 08-04-2015 10:21PM

Back to her former self !

GvidoR · 08-04-2015 10:25PM

Nice e46. Can't even tell it's ever been hit as well. Good work.

ba_barabus · 08-04-2015 10:30PM

@Duke, you should have painted on hammerite with a brush for the genuine period resto look :pac:

Yep, tis indeed Crosshaven, great road down and great sights. Mizen head is the next plan, either Tuesday or Thursday I'd say, if not earlier. I just love driving the 5, I'd be out every minute if it wasn't for both of these damn jobs :pac:

Never been at that spot before but I recognised the angle over the harbour. I was actually close enough to there at the weekend too, albeit across the water!

Mizen head is very nice too, I was there years ago. Don't know about spots to drive the car but the suspension foot bridge is very cool.

I've never actually been on that side, infact, I haven't been down much of east Cork. It is payday tomorrow though. Hmmm.......

If it's a fine day, go for it! A spin down to Roches point would be nice, or up to the fort that I linked to there. You can't drive in front of the view though unfortunately because it's gated, so not the best photo op for the car.

I do enjoy coming in here from time to time, and seeing a hoard of lovely motors i actually enjoyed trawling through the last few pages i have to say!

So here's my contribution, as we know, this happened

11145559_894793237231071_1198277903227691_n.jpg?oh=fbbdb0747f7d89debbc707006372b0a9&oe=5598D3E7

So now I'm plodding around in this, which is....interesting

took it to the shops and took this when i got back

And i stuck this in the build thread but sure not many go in there so I'll throw it to the masses

IT'S ALIIIIVE!

Pickles, out!
