I don't know any costs but if your car's got a crap paint job, this is much easier than a respray. It's not 100% permanent but easy to patch up, just peel and start again and love the fact you don't need to mask around the lights/windows etc) Not too interested in the matt black but gloss white looks pretty good and they do an orange/blue matt as well!

Christ that's fantastic mate, great work! :D

Happy Birthday Daz! Hope you have a cracking day! :)

Good to hear buddy :) I know other things get in the way but crack on - i want to see this thing finished :D

Looks good Pete - looks like you've got even more done since i saw you on Sunday! :D

Crap, sorry guys - completely slipped my mind it was this weekend! :(

4th should be fine as well buddy, see you there!

I should be free on the 28th, i finish work on the friday for a week off before i start my new job. It'd be good to catch up with some familiar faces! :)

OOOh nice windows :D Looking good pete keep up the good work!

Same here, that's for a TT with all mods declared at 32 with a clean license

Cheers Richard, 99 spec lights and clear rear repeaters are on now and i'm busy cleaning and refeeding all the leather panels before it all goes in. Hopefully see you all in a couple of weeks for Japfest! :)

Bloody hell mate, just seen this - cracking job so far! :hyper:

I've used http://www.ARhoster.com for years now and never had a problem with them, really helpful with technical problems too. They also chuck in a pre configured wordpress site as well as shops and all sorts so makes it really quick and easy to set up. If you need a hand let me know buddy :)

lol, when i went to see it it was just to see what parts were worth taking off it for my na but by the end of the conversation we decided it'd be a crime to break it and if it could be saved it was worth it :) Alot of hard work went into that car before I got it so i'll try and do it justice - the bodywork repairs are temporary just to get it back on the road but plans are to weld a straight headlamp section back in place to get the geometry of the bonnet/bumper etc back in then go for a respray on the panels to the same quality of the rest of the car so still a bit to do but for the time being i'm more than chuffed :) Tell me about it! It's been in the pipeline for nearly 3 months now - keeping my mouth shut has been agony :rofl: I still have my plate to transfer off the V8 shell ("H 300 T") but all in good time! :)

Oh very much so! :hyper: I've been a bit quiet on the zed front mainly down to lack of time with doing the house up, new job etc but should be down for the last 3 rounds of drag racing at shakey's raceway and santa pod then it's the start of the tarting up over winter Long story buddy and the person involved has sworn me to secrecy :x Looking forward to getting started, didn't get alot of time yesterday as the intercooler pipe kept popping off so changed the damage/repaired intercooler for a fresh one and running beautifully now :) I'll crack on with the interior panels tonight and 99 spec lights but the nights are getting cold and short so may end up just waiting till the weekend Cheers lads :) Don't tempt me! it's been an expensive old month so far :rofl: It would look ace but money is a bit tight now for the rest of the month and i need to get that blue na sold super quick now to pay off the short term loan i took out to speed things up. Can't wait to get back to some meets and catch up with some old faces soon :hyper:

...has just been delivered :hyper: You may recognise it ;) Just popping off to the DVLA then i'll take some decent pics. The best part was ringing footman james to change the policy over and keep the blue car on there until it sells which they did for £38(!) so all in all fully comp on both cars for £340 a year on 5000 miles at 31 years old. Thanks Footman James! :D Back soon!

They can't even enforce the new MOT rules as they are after 5 months of announcing them so how long it'd take to get everyone to agree to this is ridiculous. There's no way they'd ever get this to work!

Still waiting for a trip out in the beast Pete ;) You'll have to take me a spin when it comes back from Emerald :D

Flipping heck Pete you've finally done it! Well done mate, will be interesting to see what a run against you would show on that emerald ECU of yours and the weight loss

Crap mate, just read through this :( Sorry to see all that hard work ended up with a melted piston - sounds like the best route though with the uprated bits and bobs though :) Fingers crossed!

And here's mine :) and... Giggety :)

I've been searching for this vid for a while - remember funkysi posting it a few years back. I always fancied throttle bodies on an na after seeing it :) Ready and waiting buddy, have to change over the rear shocks this saturday but apart from that i'm set to represent the NA boys :hyper:

Sounds exactly what i'm suffering at the moment, looks like i'll be swapping over the tokigoshocks off the v8 this week. Useful thread! :)

Jesus that's clean! What a stunner - if only i had $15,000+ dollars!
