Personally I think that looks the tits mate!
The only stickers I don't like are the small ones (Jamsport etc) on the front bumper.
Glad to hear the fuel problem is sorted!
Rob.
How much has this Build cost you so far!?!
imo thats looks fookin mint
This i dont intend on thinking of. lol! its cost a good bit of money over the past 3 or 4 years tbh. Alot of parts have gone through the car over them years and then been replaced with uprated parts. Its also been reshelled ect.Quote:

thanks for the comments peeps :)
next is to get rid of all the little problems and get a full good track day out the thing. ! :)
That is absolutley stunning!
I'm sure the cost of the build is far out-weighed by the fun to be had out on the track.
It's one of the best WIP threads I've ever had the pleasure to read, top marks.
I'm a bit 50/50 on the sticker's...they break up the white, but not too sure on the yellow bits.
Love the PNG ones on the wings tho :D
Ok had a few weeks of work and thought i best tackle the drive shaft issue.
Anyhow went for the uprated hubs and bigger shafts finally.
Sourced the hubs from a migweb user and orderd shafts from chris astley. also bought a pair of calibra shafts from a mig user so i can rape the cv joints and use them as either trade in or if there in decent condition stick them straight on.
Anyhow work started i stripped old hubs and bearings. got the new hubs and then bought new bearings (again) . built the shafts up all ready to be fitted.

I purchased a new inner from partco which turned out to be wrong amount of splines. they had boxed it wrong. finally got that sorted and got the shafts on the car. There a huge improvement over the 1.6 shafts i was running previous. touch wood this is the end of shaft and cv issues so frequent.
Next was what oil do i put in the box. after a bit of research i went for the silkolene silktran sync 5 oil. reccomended by many different companies so thought id give it a go. finally purchased it from opie oils(thanks) just over ?35 for 3 litres deliverd to me door!

All thats left to do is fit the accelerator cable which decided to snap ! arghh! shouldnt be to bad tho. And seems i might have a leakey input shaft seal on the long shaft side. So that might have to be fetched out at a later date and a new one put in.
When i finally put the suspension together again and hubs ect. i noticed my tracking to be a mile out towing in by about half a foot. lol!!! wtf!!!!!!!! then realised the top camber bolts were a mile out on the shocker. (rubs forehead) lol all sorted and back in 1 peice for now.
bring on the next update lol!!!
Looking good Chris, really liking this car!
