getting ready to pull it off the road to paint.....

But before i do want all the body panels i need etc.

really REALLY struggling to find a gtr bonnet!!!!

If your getting it painted you could always get a fibreglass bonnet?

Just a quickie update

Have since bought a gtr bonnet for the car. also sold the RPF1s and went, well bigger RPF1s!

18x 9.5 +20 and 18 x 10.5 +15

Also bought a gtr standard lip, some F1 style mirrors and roof spolier.

And from the current group buy, rear carbon under diffuser, canards and ab flug under lip thingo for the front.....

Have also decided on a yellow, which is the VE i think GTS / monaro Holden yellow. As you can see some mates thought it would be funny to paint strips and numbers etc

Im now in 2 minds to either get some over fenders for the rear or try and lip the rears by around 20mm, then camber. still deciding.

trying to find some GTR rear seats at the mo and ill get the gtr front and rears re covered....

    • I'm normally copping my own abuse from neglecting my daily drivers. "Those suspension bushes will last a bit more", "Don't worry about the oil leak, just keep topping it up". The project cars I'm always doing things slowly on them as I'm wanting them to be done better, and neater, and nicer. Luckily I don't have to deal with 18 year old Matt's "Learning to wire" stuff in the project cars. And there's only one piece of wiring I'm displeased about in the Landcruiser, and it's about to be cut out... However, the box loads of parts that have been going through this place lately for the Landcruiser... Brake pads Brake Rotors Full handbrake overhaul Wheel Bearings Seals Swivel hubs Steering Boxes Half the suspension joints Shocks Air bags (Ones to go in the rear springs for towing) Water pump Timing kit Lower timing case Harmonic Balancer Radiator Lots of other little seals and shits Gas struts for the bonnet New power window switches And god knows what else I've forgotten... Ha ha ha I have my fingers crossed the pinion seals don't start leaking on the diffs, that the transfer case doesn't leak, and the gearbox input shaft doesn't leak, nor the rear main seal. As they're about the only seals I haven't replaced in the driveline! I'm seriously eyeing off buying new caliper rebuild kits front and rear brake calipers... I'll probably recheck all the valve clearances soon too, and hopefully, it should be all good and sweet to haul some long distance trips again!
    • Every time I pull my 3x gauges out of the console and see the crack-addict way that I did the wiring, and I just can't bring myself to tear it all apart and "make it nice", because it is currently working. In fact, the last time I was in there I probably made it worse.
    • The best part is when you own the car long enough that you look back and find your OWN ham fisted amateur shit!
    • The annoying part about neglect, is when you start to replace one thing, and find ten more broken things. Ham fisted monkey repairs you normally only find out about when trying to do something unrelated! Ha ha   Neglect you can kind of anticipate the huge costs to fix it all. Ham fistedness is normally a shock the first time your work on a new old car, as everything "looked" good before.
