Can't post pics until they are sprayed. They are a mongrel to mask because some parts are really fiddly. I've got to rub them back also.

If the 3M rubbing stuff TOUCHES the polished bit, I'm screwed, so I have to be Uber careful.

It's lunch time and after work for me for a little while.

Although I did find a pretty clever way to mask them using off cuts from some paper stuff at work!!!

Stay Tuned.

my mate's ebaying these, if the K-Mart hubcaps don't work out for you poite... even has a spare set of rears for teh driftzor!

fiddly bits.... sounds like there are nuts or something involved, i vote a GT-C of some colour description, and then getting painted black, and as pete said, being careful of the polished bits, ie, lip/rim bit.

my 2 south african rand

you painted LMGT4's...

Like i said...onl;y sheap crappy wheels need to be painted. LM GT4s are not Regamasters! Oh, im painting them as well :happy: . . . . . :P

And Pete, it wouldnt have been such a bastard to rub back the centres if you had of polised the outers after painting the centres. These were on Poite's outdoor setting the other day.

Painted didn't think they were rubbed back enough, so I'm sitting on the floor in my lounge room, surrounded by wheels and rubbing them back.

STILL.

Stoopid fiddly little bastards.

    • A few small updates since the previous post and lessons. I decided to do a little interior light upgrade on the 110. I quite like the iilumo items, even if they're a bit of a premium over other brands. You'll also note the Stedi Fogs, that will go into the S15 fog lights as I needed to match the bulbs since I got the new ones earlier. I hope they fit as the body is quite a bit longer than your normal bulb.  Annoyingly, I managed to trip the fuse, which normally wouldn't be an issue until I located the fuse. I can't say I've ever come across this. I had lucked out that someone nearby had a spare, but oddly enough Toyota dealerships seem to keep this in stock. I ordered some to keep in my stash and as luck would have it, someone else nearby tripped the same fuse so I passed on the favour.  I also did a little service on the 110 ahead of some additional work coming up. It's been annoying that Goleby's stopped carrying this particular HKS filter for the 110, so now I need to keep them on order from Japan. I also took the opportunity to install a bash plate and number plate riser. The plate riser is such a cheap but nice fix to help really tidy up the car. I'm tempted to now also replace my headlights, on this car. Both items were from Project Aero.    I also needed to replace the rear tyres on the 110, and after trying to get it aligned learnt that I need to replace some bushes in the front end, so that's next.  Closing out this update with a nicer picture as always! 
    • Yeah mate, never miss it.
    • Any going to watch World Time Attack at SMSP this year?
    • Appreciate the correction on the "ground", that will make a huge difference to looking at this. That makes complete sense about AF70/AF71 which is what I had come down to being the issue, one of these. I'll have another look in the ignition wiring when I get a chance next week. I'll also make up a jumper wire for running that AF73 test.  ECU is fine, relay itself is fine, pump harness is fine and the pump itself is fine. I am going to upgrade the Walbro 255 anyway with a DW300 I have since I need to replace the fuel sender and I'm going to upgrade the FPR with my chasebays kit ready for new plenum/injectors/dbw, but I'll get this working first. That's why this is so frustrating.
