Hi all,
I've not been on for a while and haven't had a catch up with the NW CS lot for even longer. So... You fancy a pub lunch and a catch up?
I'm suggesting The Waterfold Farm (carvery) on Saturday 24th meet there at 2.30pm. Who's in?

It was welded... Once. The boxes certainly have some nice bits in :) should be looking at a decent power hike when done.
I think it might have been MSL, near close park? It was a while ago now haha. My memory is hazy.
Cheers guys, hopefully with the time taken it'll come back reliable #dreams
So... The cars still at DCMS. His engine builder was apparently swamped and finally can get around to my CA18 now he's finished the supra they had. I was contemplating re-shelling the engine for a 'nice' s13, but appreciation has happened and nice ones are well expensive. I guess I'll just have...
Hi mate how are you? I will never, ever, buy vinyl again haha. Far too fiddly to work with. I never considered plasti-dipped... Hmmm...
I think that I'm gonna stay with the stickerbomb and consider options for the future.
It's a weekend f**kabout car. I've rattle canned, and hammerited, one car already. I've never tried vinyl before and I've liked stickerbombing on cars so I thought I'd give it a try. If I'm honest, the only thing I don't like is the remaining white I should have done it gloss black in hindsight...
Sorry I'm s**t at project threads, and I've been busy/drowning my sorrows about getting closer to 30 last week...
So 1st up I measured out the piece of vinyl to go over the pod...
Now, due to a lot of swearing, screaming, cursing and at times crying about getting this on neatly, especially...
I didn't get anywhere near as much done today as I wanted too, partially due to screws rounding on the spoilers risers and me getting frustrated, partly because making the aerial hole disappear took and while and partly because I spent most of the afternoon in the pub... anyway...
The...
So this is how the cars looking right now on the drive.. I actually kinda like it with the spoiler off too... I'll have a think about whether it's staying or going soon :)
Jamie? Is that you old friend? Haha yeah not too bad mate, you?
I looked at some rev3 rear light I think... Maybe in the future. I kinda am ok with the pink lol. Wouldn't be my 1st choice but it looks alright. In some light it passes for maroon I swear :D
So. De-pinking the car would cost me £850+ for a vinyl wrap in gloss white or gloss black, or much more for a full respray. Given that the car was cheap (possibly due to the fact that some c**t has sprayed it pink at some point) I don't want to spend that kind of money changing it. Queue another...
The next thing that absolutely had to change was that awful exhaust. I really like single exits on these and like a single exit 5" jap can. But 2 of them looks s**t and sounds f******g stupid!
So... I went to powerflow and paid for a cat back twin exit with a much nicer pair of tailpipes. It's...
For those who've been on here a while you might remember the fun I've had with my S13 amongst other cars... Well I've had a good 2-3 years of being sensible ish with cars until I had an impulse bid on an MR2 on eBay :/
So, thanks to impulse buys meet Pinky, my mk2 rev1 MR2 Turbo. As you can...
Thursday 21st. Change of venue maybe? How do people feel about a carvery?
I'm proposing Waterfold Farm just off the motorway at Bury. Meet there at say 7 and go in for some food around 7.30-8. Names down and i'll ring and see if we can walk in or need to book :)...
Hey guys,
Following the other thread I've rang Tuning Developments in Warrington to see about a rolling road day. If we can get 10 members or more its £40 each. They have a dyno dynamics 4wd dyno and having dealt with them before with my celica they're decent lads and are really welcoming for...
