Idrees Posted July 9, 2011 Author Share Posted July 9, 2011 Cheers guys. I've been working to the max on the car to have it ready for tomorrow but I must warn you it will be looking a bit messy unfortunately. Really haven't managed to have it as good as I wanted it, but hey ho I'm not bummy like that - I'd bring it with rust all over it as long as it drove. Bad news is that the car rolled in to a bollard today, was rolling it out of the garage and couldn't dive in quick enough to get the hand brake. So the read bumper has a big chip in it, quite glad its not plastic as it hasn't warped. The sideskirt has cracked on one wide from the wheels being too wide and the car being too low - therefore the wheel just bounced really hard and cracked the skirt badly. And there is a massive paint chip on the otherwise due to being too low too. Still need to fit one sideskirt and the spoiler tonight, I had the alarm fitted by an electrician today and the power steering is back in and feels ace. CV boot has also been replaced so the next jobs for tonight are:Complete wiring for oil gaugesRewire the fanFit spoiler and sideskirtFit mission interior plasticsCalibrate speedo and fuel needleFit boost solenoid as I removed it when there was a boosting problemSo yeah, hope to see y'all tomorrow. And I'll probably be looking like a tramp too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Idrees Posted July 11, 2011 Author Share Posted July 11, 2011 As you already know, we managed to attend Japfest in the end. Planned to have more of it finished, ie the sideskirt fitted properly and the spoiler fitted but we ran out of time. I was really surprised with the amount of interest the car actually gathered, including an offer from Japanese Performance for a full feature! A few pictures from my phone, I'll add a video and more pictures when my camera stops playing up.There's an awful problem with the steering which made is really poor to drive, especially on track. So many times the car felt like it was sliding towards the other side of the track, felt really dangerous. It wasn't long til I decided it's not ready for track yet!Things that need sorted before it goes on track again:Steering15" wheels as the 16s don't feel good on trackRear ARB fittedRear strut braceOil cooler as it now reaches 120 degreesMore boost!
