Are you sure you didn't just blow the fuse for the clock? I think it runs off the same fuse as your cigarette lighter, I've blown that fuse a few times when I've been fiddling with stuff.

well there was blue smoke but will check the fuse.

Maaaan that Nardi looks nice. You're giving me ideas...

haha just do it it feels so nice to drive with

So all guards are pretty much done, just need to bog and then they are done. I will be painting it in spray paint (gloss black) and will stay like this until weather is warmer to paint it. So hopefully it will be road worthy buy Monday, got to chuck rego on it get a exhaust fitted then introduce it to the hills. can't wait to start driving it, from what i have driven it, it will be a very fun little car and seems to be pretty punchy for a 4k. I am a little worried about driving it as it has never been taken for a good drive so unsure of problems but will be fun any way.

went to upullit today and picked up some guard bolts, chrome bumper bolts, some clips that hold the grill on, and a fuse box cover.

these chrome bolts where off a ke30 just like brand new ones but alot cheaper.

Got a lot done over the last couple of days, i got it down to the exhaust shop this arvo and got that all done. shat my self when a cop was following me but nothing. Been driving it for a little bit, passenger side axle bearing is screwed even though they are brand new. I think the brake might be stuck on, its a harsh ride but its fun don't know how long it will last for though. ill grab some pictures tomorrow, its currently painted in gloss black spray paint and looking ghetto.
