Re: Hoodedreeper's Mk1 The Purple Monster
Here are some photos of when I first got it and its progress
The car was purchased in Japan,over there it had thousands of pounds spent on it including a highly tuned engine on carbs,Garage Vary body kit,Garage Vary bonnet,centre shotgun exhaust,roll cage and much more! I've been told it was used as a Touge Car while over there.
While it was over there it had a respray (originally Red,arent they all!) in a Honda midnight purple (I've got the colour code wrote down somewhere). The inside has been stripped and the floor and behind the seats have been painted the same colour).
The car was imported to the UK in 2007,and has covered hardly any miles in that time. I believe the shell has only covered 40k and you can certainly see that! Theres not a single spot of rust on her!
The car got sold earlier this year and was stripped and put back to standard form. The car had a Veilside front bumper,which got removed and a stock bumper was refitted,hence why its a different colour,same goes with the bonnet.
The engine was removed and a stock 1.6 long nose engine was put in its place.
Day of purchase
First list of jobs were done
HSD Coilovers & Alignment
Carbon Bonnet
Carbon Bootlid
Carbon Plate Panel
Clear Side Reflectors
Smoked Side Repeaters
Offset Plate Bracket
Dished Momo steering wheel
Classic Dash
Cleaned and hovered the interior and boot too
Took delivery of a Racing Beat Type 2 bumper

Re: Hoodedreeper's Mk1 The Purple Monster
New wheels arrived in the form of Japan Racing JR10 15x8j ET15 and the 195/50/15s fitted from the previous MX5
Jass Performance Low-Pro Headlights fitted
Runabout Type 2 fuel lid
Day 8 of ownership I get woken up by my neighbor who came over to tell me he had reversed out of his driveway opposite and hit my car :(
A few phone calls between insurance companies later and a date was booked for the body shop to have it repaired.
TR Lane GPD Roll Cage fitted
At this point I had decided that the car would have a purple and gold theme,so the first part to be painted was the cage
MX5 Parts Dual Backbox fitted
Jass Performance Stealth TSIs
Fujitsubo (Jasma) Stainless 4-1 Manifold
370mm stainless decat

Mazdaspeed Sideskirts
I've had a lot of inspiration from RevLimiter's Sharka build and I loved the retro Mazda badge he bought. After I searched the internet high and low I couldn't find a badge that I liked. So I went back to the Sharka build to see where he got his from. Found one in the US and It arrived yesterday.
As I'm a wheel whore,i ordered a new set of wheels. Traklite Apex 15x8.25j ET20 weight 8kg each
A little bit under 3" of dish
Refurbished door and boot catches
