    Not sure if SRS.

    Its just a hole cut in the bonnet or have I missed something?

    Thanks fella, must get stuck into it soon...

    Thanks dude, would have gone 16jj but they came out two weeks after I bought my 15jj's, the rear could do with another 1".

    Hopefulyy ready for July 2nd

    Thanks very much :)

    I just cut a hole in the bonnet, which vent fella ?


    Just below :)

    Hulk smash LoL

    Not much of an update I'm afraid, flat out with both jobs atm however I did manage to get myself a Nardi Personal in black with red stitching and a some Brides :) A reclinable Bride Brix 2 for the queen and Bride Zeta 3 (Sparkle Back) for me, I hope to start the bodywork on this next week as I have to have the car done for the first weekend in July so no pressure at all :)

    No chance LoL

    So I got the bits to prep the quarters and bond them on so it was time to pull the car out of the garage and strip her down to build it back up, gonna be a fun few weeks but at least I will be making progress I suppose.

    I am happy to announce that Team Chihuahua will be rocking a full Rocket Bunny tra_kyoto kit, diffuser and led set for its revised look, so not only will it have an RB Engine but an RB kit not too, the monster Meisters in 18x13jj front and 18x15jj rear with some nice red brides holding me tight :) Big thanks to Dave fromJDMDistro let the countdown begin ;) I'm looking forward to cutting it up and making it wider :)

    The rocket bunny is actually wider is it?

    I think I prefer the kit that's on there already, what will you be doing with that?

    I'll still follow this closely :)

    No I dont think so but I hav eno problem cutting the RB Kit and making it wider :)

    Reason for the change is the RB look fits better with the RX8 and I plan on having both of them finished for RD5 of the IDC.

    Probably sell it on, its an EP Racing kit so fit wasn't great.

    :)

    Work like a lunatic, I have 2 jobs. Meisters with tires and centre repainted stand over €6k

    Haven't updated this in a while, container landed yesterday with the Rocket Bunny Kit, just have to sort some time to collect it, the Bride Seat rails also landed in, have a few small bits left to order but we are getting there so for now here is a pic of the car being dropped off to Stone Motorsport where we will test fit the kit before it goes for paint :)
