Rich-k Posted March 12, 2015 Share Posted March 12, 2015 Thats fantastic work matey! Id paint those wheels personally! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDMfreak Posted March 12, 2015 Author Share Posted March 12, 2015 i think thats what i might do finish sanding them and paint them white as was metioned before and maybe lower it and a set of clear indicators upfront Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Rich-k Posted March 13, 2015 Share Posted March 13, 2015 Thats a good idea man they will look good nice clean and original polished wheels are a nightmare if you laquer them you never know when there gunna flake as laquer wont stick to bare metal n uf you keep them bare you have to constantly wax them or they will just corrode haha when you paint them tho make sure you etch primer them first as the paint will just flake off the bare metal other wise Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDMfreak Posted March 13, 2015 Author Share Posted March 13, 2015 ive decided gloss white im going to do the wheels same colour i painted the spoon str reps on first page. Iknow polished wheels are a nightmare to keep clean and unstained with rain,,laquer never takes to aluminium always flakes even when done 100% right,, Will be getting some proper alloy primer and a good few heavy coats aswell and a good roughing up of the wheels to give the primer something to grab too Quote Link to post Share on other sites
JDMfreak Posted March 26, 2015 Author Share Posted March 26, 2015 (edited) right project has taken a bit of a turn for the worst car is starting to burn oil not a lot but on startup in morning is very blue rest of day seems fine apart from if your giving it a good rev then it will throw out the blue smoke Its getting harder to get out of first gear and into second so im pressuming box is giving up as rest of gear seem fine i can safely say im starting to lose interest in this car and dont know what to do with it i haven't the money to put an engine or gearbox into with my wedding coming up and in fairness i dont think it deserves one im going to take the alloys off and any of them other bits ive put into the car and see what they will give me in the breakers for it Edited March 26, 2015 by JDMfreak Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mccartney11 Posted March 26, 2015 Share Posted March 26, 2015 you'd get an engine and box for 150 lad id hold out, sell some of the small bits and get the engine, was coming on well Quote Link to post Share on other sites
bdohohh Posted March 27, 2015 Share Posted March 27, 2015 my car goes through a tank of oil every week unless I add additive so try that, usually makes a tank last for 3-4 weeks, until you get something more permanent sorted. and its very similar, quite blue when I turn her over first and then fine unless its revved up a bit.

JDMfreak Posted March 27, 2015 Author Share Posted March 27, 2015 im not sure what to do with the car th wheel i had planned on fitting to the car i may sell as i owe money to somone so car will have to roll on steelies for a while the oil burning situation is annoying me the most as i cant afford to keep topping it up and currentley has no (mot) nct or tax so im chancing using it i just dont have the money to do anything at the car currentley with no work and a wedding to pay for so my only thing is scrap the car and use the funds on the wedding Quote Link to post Share on other sites
