Yeah. See what I mean about the lower lights because Ph2 clusters are different. Late 200's like mine didn't get those facelift lights because the RS bumper has no fogs or reflectors, so all 200's have the Ph1 lights.

Awesome turn-around! Looks like a different car!

Yeah B5, that's the one!

What a transformation! Nice work!

Love those PMS shifters. They need to make a Mk3 one!

Wheels look so much better than the OE ones! Great progress.

Ha, yeah. I remember their demo car at Max Power Live. Such an old bast.

Welcome. Plans sound good. Not a fan of yellow callipers, I much prefer the OE silver or red.

BB were a real R5 powerhouse back in the day, as people have said.

Cool. Just remember, the least contact and least pressure the better.

I wouldn't bother colour coding the blanks, just keep the lights but that's just preference. I'd wait until you have the new bumper first. They could set the height of the exhaust to your Ph1 bumper and then the Ph2 may be deeper or a different shape. Leaving you with a bit of an embarrassing...

Mental. Off to its new owner who'll keep it in a collection and never drive it. What a time to be alive.

This. Word for word. The polishes you're working with and being cut short before they reduce down to a refining polish. Hence the holograms.

I can't add much more than others have said really. Gyeon Wetcoat is a great product. Mist it over and then activate it with the pressure washer. An open hose will then sheet the remaining water off and you'll barely need to contact dry!

Poor old thing 😧 Good to see that it's finally getting some love.

Used Fusso KOG for the first time the other night. Two coats. Incredible stuff, kinda weird though.

Yup. 15 years for Canada. How strict they are on the 25 year rule does vary from state to state though. There are plenty of R34s and S15s registered in Florida and they're way under the ruling.

That looks so good! I'm normally not a fan of Arctic either. Really smart!

This.

A supercharged (even low boost) 200 would be a total weapon. You still preserve the NA revs too. Best of both.

That's the exact issue I had when I ordered mine. I ruled out RB because of my old 182 and I couldn't order either AG or SG anymore because of how late my build slot was. So UR it was!

Not in this case since the OP will have Ph1 lights with fogs/reflectors. The lower ones will be duplicates, so I wouldn't even bother wiring them in.

Re. DC5 v 200 v R26: The DC5 is a cracking car, plus there's the rarity factor and they're awesome straight out of the box. They're not cheap to modify though and suspension setup is difficult once you do. They're not as raw as you'd think either, if you're after a hardcore experience you would...

Just to get there early enough mate. Traffic's the killer so if we get an early-ish start to proceedings without a killer early start, that's the best mix. The plan is then to do the other parts of the route/stop for food on the way back, through Ponderosa when traffic's not as much of an issue.

As far as I know they're a direct fit. The only difference being that the Ph2 has its foglights and reflectors in the lower section of the bumper. Ph1 foglights and reflectors are in the light clusters, whereas Ph2 are in the bumper.

Out of those two, 100% DC5.

Love the progress, as always

Welcome! Best of luck with the project

Welcome.

Yeah, basically Arc 8's are the daddies
