starletgt-shady Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 has the car a year now went to amsterdam and bought it of mike.got the mister r coilovers on at weekend sits a lot better now before after Quote
daveEP Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Good base car. were are u goin with this are u doing a big build or just happy the way it is for now? would love one of these. Quote
daniel_g Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Yeah Steven !! Thought youd never make a build thread haha. This looks 100 times cleaner than mine lol. GT side trims look good on there Quote
starletgt-shady Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 Will be going for a big build. Done with my 82 for now just a few more things to do. Planning a house then will get stuck into this. The girlfriend has been running about in it for the past year but she bought a ek9 last weekend so means I can get stuck into this. Got a few good parts already collected. Most the engine parts I have. Quote
starletgt-shady Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 Cheers Daniel lol. The main car is very clean. Under the car is mint and running gear seems fine. Body work needs told roof is the worst laqure peal all over. Planning going back to bare shell with a full respray inside and out then build it back up. No time frame in this will be something I can work on when I get a house. Garage is what I want the most house is just to keep the missis happy Quote
daniel_g Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Bodywork can be fixed, aslong as the drivetrain is ok, thats the main thing You had it out in the snow yet ? I've seen vids of 4paws drifting and it looks incredible haha !! Quote
The_Notorious_C_A_T Posted October 1, 2013 Posted October 1, 2013 Look on it as buying a garage so you can keep the car nice and dry with a house attached rather than a house to keep her happy.Looks mint though, since you was in Amsterdam I bet the car paid itself off on that trip? :-D Quote
starletgt-shady Posted October 1, 2013 Author Posted October 1, 2013 Yeh had it in the snow last winter was so much fun. Quote
garrygt Posted October 2, 2013 Posted October 2, 2013 Haha so you got the mrs the ek9 then....tut tut ;) Quote
starletgt-shady Posted October 2, 2013 Author Posted October 2, 2013 Yeh Garry she got the ek9. Tried and tried to get her to get something with a turbo but she wanted wasnt interested lol. Quote
shorty Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Cheers garry, any chance you could get him to update the pics? Im guessing will be a little lower now they have settled a bit? Want the 5door decked but not sure miesters will gow low enough Quote
starletgt-shady Posted April 21, 2014 Author Posted April 21, 2014 I will get pics up at the weekend. No internet at the new house yet so on my phone at the moment. Think they have gone a little lower since fitted pretty sure when I fitted them the rear were at there lowest. Quote
shorty Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 Oh really? ID quite like it on its arse tbh lol, think i might just have to buy 85 ones then lift the turrets to get some more lows. If you could upload some at some point bhd would be much appreciated. Quote
bucketep91 Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 If your going through the hassle of extending the turret you'd be aswell just buying normal (cheaper) coilovers shorty! Quote
daniel_g Posted April 21, 2014 Posted April 21, 2014 I was really thinking about getting the 85 coilovers but waiting to see a pic of how low they go first. If you cant get a pic Steven them hopefully Browner puts his on the RWD 85 soon Quote
starletgt-shady Posted June 21, 2014 Author Posted June 21, 2014 I will start with a big thanks to shorty Pics speak for them selves. Quote
Scoobysvx Posted June 22, 2014 Posted June 22, 2014 That's a lovely system! Did you get any videos of it? Quote
starletgt-shady Posted June 22, 2014 Author Posted June 22, 2014 No videos yet but I will get some. Could do with a de-cat to get a bit more noise. Quote
