no i think u were out of it by the time we watched this one - i dont think it was NZ could be wrong - i remember the harbour bridge in the background of the cars in one scene. Its the one that is pure RICE and the presenters are shite even the guy annoyed the hell out of me - what a wankker!

i tried it on last night - and by this stage u were tipsy bu not gone. U missed the presentation - oh well i'll have to ask one of the other boys that paid attention whether i should stick with medium or risk large.

thats ok not the first time thats happened - last work function i think all the mechanics had a go at the same thing - haha lucky it was me tho u might not be alive today if it was some other girl.

sorry got distracted, trying to figure out whether it's worth upgrading my plenum, or just stick to normal plenum i only want at least like 250-300rwkw's :D

adrian :P

dammit paul had the shirt in the back of is car, i forgot to ask him for a look!

    • 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.
