You mean you've never heard of the bhp rating that all brake calipers carry?
They've got to be suitable to hold back those ponies while braking


and to the OP, you've got a long way to go before it starts looking like f0xys old car.

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

just put a brand new exhaust hanger on all ready for wednesday. The rear sport bumper isnt flush at the arches 1mm or so out why would this be as i thought it was a straight swap ??
 
Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Gonna keep an eye on this thread.. I plan on doing the same thing (as in same ideas, different colours ;) ).

Good luck though!

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Feck all wrong with that gap, as long as it's sitting flush everywhere else there's nothing you can do about it anyway.

Good choice using F0xys old car, it was the best 1.2 on this site when it was still about IMO, though I'd use it more for inspiration rather than just copying the whole lot. Keep us updated though.

CopyofDSCF4101.jpg



I turrned up at pro-speed 1 hour early as you can tell no one was around lol


CopyofDSCF4106.jpg



So i went to sue's cafe which is just down the road really nice people even gave charlie a bell to see when he opened ;) had a nice black coffee and went back and they had opened up. Gave them the keys and went for a full english which was needed. After that i walked back to pro-speed to see what was going on and they had take my old exhaust off and the car look great with no exhaust on lol


DSCF4109.jpg



I meet charlie had a good chat about the zorst and how i wanted it. He also told me where the city centre was so i took a walk and it was nothing great so i left a huge dump there and went back to pro-speed and saw this

DSCF4113.jpg



The new zorst was kinda on and look great. As you can see next to my is a really horrible ford fiesta it had a huge wide body kit and it look like a really s**t v6 rep lol the bloke that owned it omg he was huge no need for coilover when your super fat and a chav lol On the other hand i had a really nice vxr next to me that was having a custom induction kit made and below a track car power by a suzuki superbike engine it was worth 30k :eek: I will post videos with the cat on tomorrow ;)

Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Looks smart, as said, you need a exhaust surround and to get the bumper BLOODY PAINTED, lol.
 
Re: The lowwwwwww ph2 remake - Progress Thread

Out of interest... how much did the exhaust and decat cost?
