facebook mostly I think plus pretty sure follow your Instagram as well and followed the colour change there

welcome to the forums, seen the car across social media etc fair bit already, looks great in PB

welcome back and lolz at the focus banter, dat wing, my God DAT wing

Stretts mate has packed up shop already unfortunately as he did mine and wanted more done. The currently on look out for someone else to do some for me

Vapour blasting gives the best OEM finish imo. Paint looks good at a distance but still looks like paint up close which isn't ideal imo if wanting standard silver look This is vapour

They'd remove both panels and if in good nick just needing minimal standard prep and paint you're normally looking 250 quid a panel average. Any repairs and blending to rest of car would be more

Confirmed, mintex F3 pads. No idea what they're like. And mix of r888 and direzza tyres on the spare lairy f1's. Roll on February 1st!

True I would replace the engine and keep her going, but may need the 684 quid for exactly that this time in 2 weeks! Plus the day that happens will be end of an era, original engine and gearbox ended....sniff sniff @makavelli know where you're coming from, every update just crying out to be...

Thinking see if it blows up at Mallory and if not then pull the trigger and just get it done. Feel like the old girl deserves it

Nah, shed floor wouldn't take the weight :unsure:

@Dr Jekyll I've only got about 12 sets currently :p

Usual winter story, just been cranking the miles again and nothing much to report. Sold the turinis provisionally and acquired some more standard cup wheels in better nick so tyres will be swapped over the summer and current set sold on. Mallory Park incoming February 2nd so fitted some semi...

@YorkshireKyle 'fine' is a strong word to describe my example......never meet your high mile hero's ;) :ROFLMAO:

That's the spirit Mark, back on track. Anyway you've got 70k to cover to catch up and achieve true ownership :p only then can you worry about mileage affecting value

Tbh can't say anything about the whole nice to mix it up a bit and start a new project, that's how I've ended up with a scrap yard on the drive

Way more than 13 for a healthy alternator, you want 14.5v across the battery on idle or more

100% would not trade up an RB for a cup, personally I have zero interest in the cups

Looks really good in sills, ideal

Nope, hideous things and have equal density to the centre of a neutron star so ruins handling too :p

Yes

As above, they're all relatively easy fixes or at least easy to diagnose. Unplug each injector on idle and listen for change in engine note. If one makes no change that's the faulty one Check alternator output when on idle with multimeter, across battery and directly off alternator to see if...

needs front spacers down to 15mm and rear 10mm to balance imo lovely motor though where did you source struts for boot from too? genuine? do they work as all of mine on both cars are tired

Cheers old bean, she's on 16mm front and 10mm rear spacers. Stock cup shocks and H&R springs. Forget mileage on suspension components but it'll be documented in my project thread I guess but I'd say the springs are old enough and well used enough to be fully settled by now, flol

They're so chunky! Aw shucks, you'll make me blush!

.......jokezzzzzz. Paid the swirl kings

Took a leaf out of Mark's book and did some hardcore detailing over the weekend and what a result.........

Titanic let the water in through the starboard bow, believe the sunroof was fine 🤪

Lovely. That flamer had a sunroof?!!

Yep identical, well I used 172 stuff including 172 dephaser and all fitted fine. Also used megane 225 exhaust pulley as lighter
