With the fact that you live in Birmingham, you should be able to find a local lad that'll sort this out for next to nothing... get friendly with a few local peeps! They'll sort you out
I'm interested in a set of these... I'm after a shed load of stickers for the track car...
Could you PM me a price and where you ordered them please
Thanks

So the first detailed update
Brake Ducts
I bought a cheap set of ducts on eBay that came with pipe work.
After getting the fog light covers off the car, I quickly realised it was going to be a tight fit!
So I got the heat gun out and used that to soften both parts.
After a bit of...

September 2017 Update
Hey guys,
I’ll try and keep this as brief as possible...
I’ll do a few separate updates with more elaboration but for now, heres just a list of stuff!:grinning:
So, Whats been done?
Exterior
Removed 172 wheels
Removed rear wiper
Removed spoiler, cleaned...
Ah!!!! So it was you that stole the doors 😂😂
I came back on the site and they'd sold! I was rather upset!
Look forward to all the updates. As for the wiring... all I can say is good luck! I've been there already

Gents....
I have a large update to come, but I will start by saying I lost a lot of enthusiasm for this thread as when I bought a new Mac, I removed all of my files from my phone and Idevices and put them on the Mac, a week into Mac ownership the catching went corrupt!
This meant...
Afternoon gents...
Trying to sort out a few loose ends with the car to get it track prepped.
I've gone to change the rear lines to braided and the nuts are stripped...
So... I can't take them off as I'll have to replace everything...
What do you suggest I do in regards to brakes now though...
Also, a little trick for tough areas, use a cloth that's already got product and tar on it, the tar and the product work together in removing hard areas.
You'll know what I mean when you use it
Yep, that's the stuff.. it's fairly expensive, but it'll make you appreciate time when it saves you loads!
- Heat sound deadening a lot
- Scrape it off
- spray Jelsol and let it dwell for a few mins
- wipe away (it'll ruin cloths so use something you'll be throwing away)
- repeat for tough...
Holy cheese balls!!!
I go away for a few months and it's all but kicked off! If only I'd have passed my B+E by now, then I'd have offered too, as I've got an Alhambra which is full of... well, space!
I love seeing a group of people that don't know one another, being helpful towards their...
I'm not one to swerve offers like this... I'll be sure to keep an eye out, at some point (probably September) I'll have a few mates over to get stuff fitted and smash through some things that need a little more know-how than I've got currently. So hopefully it'll be taking a step forward soon
That's my local track... so when you're there next... I'll try and head up... seeing other clips out on track that I've watched get built on here is a big part of my motivation.
Of recent I've gone from working nights to being back on days and it's proper messed me up.
I'll have more time on...
What a great read... since I was last in here you've done loads.... I've still done nothing!
My car runs now, and has a lot less inside... but I've not fitted wheels, brakes, seats or anything yet!
I think I'll be out next year and I'll buy some more parts when the time comes or parts become...
I've recently decluttered my wiring, but you've gone a step further, by the looks of things...
The most important question is... Are all of your earths still in the wiring? If not that's most likely your problem.
What loom/wires have you left in the car?
I left in quite a lot, but that's due...
Wht a bloody fantastic build this is!
I'm rather jealous! Although, I'm not jealous at the bank balance you've lost creating this stroke of perfection!
Quality
Right lads I'm after some advice on tyres...
Not which specific brand, but I need to know what size tyres im best using?
Obviously, 15 inch ones are a good start 🙈

These tyres are going to be for track day use only
