Hi everyone. Never really introduced myself and spent most of my time on here in the classifieds! I bought my first 5 GTT last January
Say hello to Raggy (now owned by another RTOC member Matt)
I did love Raggy although he needed a lot of work on him. Being completely inept at mechanics I got a haynes and some spanners and met Sparkie (I owe many thanks too!) through this forum :)

I went through copius amounts of drive shafts, changed everything other than the engine on him then went a bit mad and stripped him out stuck a cage in and decided to use him as my daily driver lol. I found him quite tempremental but when i finished with him he was a solid car.
An ex member off here (Andy Thompson) happened to be a family friend and he had a J reg 5 that had been sat his drive for a few years. I was just thinking about selling Raggy when he offered it to me! It was an offer I could not refuse! It was completely standard with a full interior and newly built engine. Had lots of little nice additions in the engine bay.

I fitted a 2 1/2 inch down pipe, and 2 1/2 inch side exit. A GT28r running 20psi with a pace IC and Sparkie set my carb up for me :)
There were a lot of little jobs I got around to sorting. With thanks to some members on here for bits! Front bumper was mashed up as it had had a meeting with a speed bump when andy owned it. I sorted most the little jobs out and just have some rust around the windscreen left to do.
I put some OZ 5 spoke alloys (running 195/45/15 rainsport 2's) on to replace the team dynamics black alloys and I think they look great.
