So, me and Polo have had another night on the car - it's now all prepped and masked up ready for painting in the morning. We also got a chance to have a good look underneath the car Very cool.








All masked up







All that's left to do now is roll it out of the workshop and into the paintshop next door!

More tomorrow...

Seing as Chris is taking the car down to Si at SJS now and you lot waht to see it, il update the thread.

Yesterday morning we rolled it into the paint shop, a bit of progress and a few hours later......





while we waited for that to go off Chris went of to source the parts for the 5 stud front conversion.
Then we rolled it out and removed the masking.


then we fitted the 5 stud hobs, s14 brakes and lower arms,

bit of chopping on the front wings for clearance,

streighten the bent exhaust so it exits at the hole in the bumper

Then all the other bits got put on, well it wasnt exactly in that order but you get the picture.
Befor......


After(2 nights and most of a day after).......




Any way after doing all that, just as i was about to leve to go home i found a leak in the rad, so it was up extra early this morn to get it changed ready for skids today.
Chris loves the car, it skidds awesome, with only 260hp its great fun with the 265/35 18 Marangoni rubber.

Thanks Polo
Well, jesus i think that the car looks frapping awsome. It really suits white and while it does not look as "gangsta drift" as the multicoloured ripple black and flip paint purple did, all being one colour and looking mint really makes a difference if you ask me!

There is still a fair bit to do on the car one way or another. It needs the ECU sorting and fitting, the safety gear installed and the Apex Radiator to aid in cooling.

However...

THIS CAR ROCKS - i mean seriously, it's in the top three cars i have ever driven/drifted and it's just so predictable. It's got mental levels of steering lock and balance - it's "backwards entry yo" good and I love it long time and can't wait to compete in it!

Anyway, massive thanks to Paul and Matt for there help over the weekend!
