Trailers, mmm I think we will build one, see exact costing and go from there. I only want a very very basic one. No tyre rack etc. Will be around end of the year I reckon before we look at building on

Lexan.. In, intrusion bar removed and 500 grams of doorframe gone. Removed approx 7kg from Each door (so far) Fitment of lexan

Is perfect

thats including ditching OEM elec mirriors for carbon manual craft square style, removing speaker, replacing glass with lexan, removing intrusion bar and some door frame. could lose another 2.5kg (each door) or so from changing OEM door trims for carbon sheet. will get around to that but will take some time to do nicley so I am going to use the OEM trims for now.

Nah that's alright, it seemed like it was a pretty flat out day for everyone. Thanks, yeah we're pretty happy to finally get moving with it, it gets a bit depressing seeing the car just sitting there every day. It will be a bit of work to get it to the stage we want but we will just skid it in the meantime once the engine etc. is in.

unfortunately not i only started taking pictures/recording during the top 32/16 battles and hardly any came out decent ( first time using the camera )

I did see some of that 31 on either dripftpics or angryman photography's facebook page though :)

That's alright, thanks anyway. I'll tell him to have a look, seems like there were quite a few people out there taking pics which is good.

Super happy with the ganadors, the quality is amazing and the fit is spot on. Stoke I retain an electronic mirror as well!

      Rusty roof repair

      By Kinkstaah · Posted

      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 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.

      Rusty roof repair

      By PranK · Posted

      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.
