stupid heat.....need to do some electrical work on the fourby but cant cos i cant get the thing under enough shade ;)

Don't be a pussy Matty! ... I was out working on the Stagea yesterday in the heat refitting my gauges. Even drove the damn thing to the tattoo shop to get inked too :rofl:

No BOV, but you must of had a pod filter making the whoosh whoosh noise or a blocked BOV making some sututututu therefore making the cop think its a BOV of some sort.... heard of that happening before and witness one with the latter.

Yea do have a pod which makes the wooshhh sound but i tried exaplining that n even made him listen lol but nup ahhh wells took it to cop shop today they cleared me of everything didnt say a word bout ma carbon bonnet while i was there so im happy :rofl:

hmmmm with this heat today, im seriously considering gettin out there with

a rubber mallet and rolling/flaring my guards....

mad ghetto rep points eh?

I got my garage to re-arrange. Too much shit in there and the car parts are mixed with lawnmowers, bikes, cd's, random electrical equipment and furniture... gonna move all the car stuff to one side (MY SIDE) and the crap to the other side. Wishing I had some hooks to hang my old tyres from tho... still I just got back from the mechanics and it was pretty hot there. Fun tho, I got to see a cat get destroyed by overfueling and an SR20 powered sprintcar, and an early model supra getting a 2jz engine swap... nice stuff >:rofl:

-D

    • Nah that is not actually a lot. Just painting my GTR frontend and the little bits to make sideskirts/nismo flare pieces work correctly/fit on the sedan/mount up correctly came to about $7000. Is it a lot? Sure. None of this is economical. Economy would be shelling the car and buying a 2010 Corolla to commute in. The perspective of all of this is different.
    • I have the 2025 build re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I quite rate them for street wet and dry
    • I don't see any issues here. I've been saying all along this is a big job, the price reflects that.  When the car comes back perfect I'm sure it will feel like money well spent. 
    • Remember, take original quote. Double it. Then add a bit more. It's how any project goes.
    • So, I started this repair and got as far as "fixing" the holes with some fibreglass. God all those years working on boats came back quickly. I decided I'd reach out to some rust guys just to see what they would say about it. I came across a guy about 40 mins away and went to see him. He said the windscreen needs to come out, that there might be some more bits around the windscreen and he'd quote them at the time. But his quote was $300 to remove and replace windscreen and $3k for the damage he can see. He said he could respray the roof for $1200 and the bonnet for another $800 (somebody has previously rattle canned it, its horrendous). This is $5300 + any small additional bits. It's a lot, I get that and the name of one of my fave youtube channels 'Not Economically Viable' comes to mind.  I'm not being financially rational, but I've taken him up on the quote. He's opening a new shop in November with more room, so we're waiting for that. I'll leave the currently missing headliner out until then. I'm looking forward to it being fixed and having the paint looking nice again (lots of clear coat issues on the roof too). / flame suit on.
