ryan lang Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 looks good man bring the celica along instead dont do it satin as beast as it will look, the paint will attract dust and shit that wont come off when it gets into the corners etc Quote Link to post Share on other sites
ryan lang Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 That's crazy! Are bolt in cages a no go then? I don't want a weld in one Doesn't matter either way will still be welding to thin metal or bolting to thin metal we run bolt in cages on our mx5 race cars. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
rinseep82 Posted August 11, 2014 Share Posted August 11, 2014 That car has been sayin before dude haha I painted it satin when I first got it Give u an idea mate I loved it when it was like that Quote Link to post Share on other sites
enots Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 I know I'd rather a decent paint job but getting it somewhere to be painted etc is another pain in the arse lol at least with satin i can do it myself but then again I know its not gonna last my other option is satin for now and then once its on the road mot'd etc book it in to be painted properly hmmm to many decisions lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

enots Posted August 11, 2014 Author Share Posted August 11, 2014 Do you know if it was hard work when it comes to painting over it?? Like is it just a matter of keying the paintwork again or would I have to take it back to bare again?? Quote Link to post Share on other sites

enots Posted March 24, 2015 Author Share Posted March 24, 2015 (edited) **UPDATE 24/3/14** ok so past few weekends actually feels like i'm finally getting close to completing this thing at long last!! fitted the tein coilys last weekend,along with front brake setup and obviously more painting! few pics below! also my wheels have arrived! gone for something a bit different some people may hate them but i think they'll suit the car so mehh! need some advice on tyre sizes though if anyone has any of fitting tyres to an 8j rim?? i don't want a ridiculously stretched tyre as i want to be able to actually drive it decently still so if anyone has any pics or can shed some light on a decent size tyre to go for that'd help alot lol! went for 16" 8j with a 0 offset in the end if need be i can space them out slightly to get them flush is my thinking! size difference over standard brakes arse end going back together now just need to get hold of a spoiler wheels arrived today also Edited February 7, 2021 by enots Quote Link to post Share on other sites
