Lol cheers mate the will have some transformation over the next few months have some nice ideas. Watch this space ;)
yea thats fine.. obviously they dont have tyre but i have some wood we can lower it onto :)
just to give an idea
If you were to fit 165/50/15 stretched tyres you could go super low if you wanted ;)

Welcome along - That is a sweet looking motor - not many people can pull off a yellow / black combo, but thats been done very very well, look forward to seeing this in the metal as it were.

Check with your local reps, it's usually a bit quieter this time of year tbh.

welcome to the club
i considered respraying mine liquid yellow but got put off the idea when people kept asking if i wanted it to look like ali g's car :sad2:
should have stuck yo my guns.
I agree the wheels need changing, they do nothing for the car, any more plans for it in the future?
Bumblebee1990
16-11-2011, 20:47
Haha yer I've heard that a few times. Erm yer I've jus bought some ronal turbos. The car in booked in with Marky Mark it's having a t2/t25 270 cam bigger jets. It's also having a Crome rocker cover I also want some coilovers front mount intercooler possibly bigger brakes or just upgraded discs and pads. Then get more alloy bits for the engine bay. :) plenty to look forward to.
TNT Tricky Nicky
16-11-2011, 22:18
good stuff :agree:
get a project thread going as i think there's a lot of potential for this car and i'd like to see how it comes together, it's also a good way of getting help and advise
Bumblebee1990
16-11-2011, 22:26
Yer that's a good idea :) when things start moving along with the car ( couple of weeks) then il start one.
