Bluebear Posted June 19, 2009 Posted June 19, 2009 Oh, Idrees. That is a sexy, sexy motor, dare I say better than the yellow EP91? Then again, I've always had a soft spot for the 82's. I just want one now What's the insurance like on it bud? If it's alright, I might just have to look around... Quote
Idrees Posted June 20, 2009 Author Posted June 20, 2009 Thanks guys. Insurance, a fucking bomb but worth it in my opinion. I might buy a daily driver soon though so I can cancel this otherwise I will be skint every day of the week! Streetracer what you trying to say?Update - 20th June 2009I started off by fitting some brand new headlights to get the car looking a bit fresh from the front.Previous look:Then found that the easiest would be with removing the bumper.Old vs. New:Then remembered I got a nice new WEPR Intercooler sitting about, so why not whack it on I thought?Filter peaking through bumper grille.And a bumshot.I am pleased with the results if I must say so myself.

Bourkey Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 Looking at that FMIC i say spray it black. It would look awesome i reckon .Bourkey Quote
Idrees Posted June 20, 2009 Author Posted June 20, 2009 Hmmm nah it's gotta stay a nice polished silver for me, if it was old and grubby then I'd be tempted to paint it black! Quote
Faisal_Sol Posted June 20, 2009 Posted June 20, 2009 Just seen this!Awesome car Iddy, nice replacment for the Yellow beaut.Best of luck with the new ride dude.Faisal Quote
Idrees Posted July 3, 2009 Author Posted July 3, 2009 Brake update - 3rd July 2009Fitted some new brakes, some serious cracks in the old ones!One brand new I wouldn't use again..[On with the new..CRN grooved discs with yellow stuff pads, £118 well spent on ebay, very fast delivery. Sometimes they do feel a little spongy, but they are still being bedded in so can't comment much further on them. Fitting wise they are excellent and easy to fit. Quote
Sparky Posted July 3, 2009 Posted July 3, 2009 Those 3G's look nasty but you cant call them shit you dont know how long they been on there or the usage of them!!You just bought discs and pads for less than £120, can see a bit of "buy cheap, buy twice" coming on now. Be good to see how they handle over 200hp Quote
Idrees Posted July 4, 2009 Author Posted July 4, 2009 Those 3G's look nasty but you cant call them shit you dont know how long they been on there or the usage of them!!I understand what your saying and your quite right, but they are shit, my bros pair didn't last him 6 months. Quote
