So I'm thinking of getting this, transplanting the necessary parts into the YOLOdeo and selling the rest, thoughts?

(Yes, I know I should have bought that S13 off of Corey)

Work tomorrow morning, got a BBQ or some shit on Sunday. I'm pretty broke this week so going to try and keep things fairly tame.

Might watch the footy tonight.

What about yourself?

Posts just came back

Fishing local sun morning with friends, painting and stuff at home. Pretty much finished all jobs at the block for a while, bobcat can have a rest for a couple weeks

beard meeting?

Of course! His was looking slightly more spectacular than mine though :P

Soooo, farken cars. Drove the hairdresser brap into work today, was giving it some berries along Wanneroo road, hit boost cut and then my zorst started sounding grumbly and shit. I looked under the car and on idle the zorst is coming out of the screamer pipe and not the back of the car, arghhhh! Guessing my gate is stuck open or something.

So that's sitting in the workshop and is Tuesday Hank's problem :(

Broken spring in gate maybe?

Quite possibly. That's what you get for fitting the finest purple Chinese wastegates I suppose :P

Might have to splash some cash for a proper one pending inspection, I'd rather not but you gotta do what you gotta do.

Hey Kent's. Big 24hrs. Went camping out bush over night, rushed back for fishing and lunch on beach with friends. Now couple jobs at block then go home and tidy up the van etc.. Gonna need more beers later to help recovery

    • 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 re003s’ on my 06 XT Forester Turbo and I highly 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.
