I'll just keep paying for it to get fixed up, service it, and get my friends to do the bits I can't, and then I won't drive it. :rolleyes:

Greg
24-07-11, 12:36
She isn't putting a whole lot of effort into selling it, so she'll probably keep it. :) We must get pics of both cars together some day.

18-07-13, 22:30
bit of an update on this. its been off the road since christmas, it hadnt been running right and while i was trying to figure out what was up with it, it stopped running altogether. so long story short i got fed up with it and parked it up.

with the good weather lately i got stuck back into it and got her running again, simple fix in the end just needed a new fuel pump. i had it in my mind that it wouldnt be as a cheap as simply changing a pump so i had saved up a few quid expecting worse. so with the spare cash i ordered a few new bits and pieces.

first of which arrived today from ep racing.

waiting on a few more bits and pieces to arrive and then ill be sending her off for a respray, while she was parked up she developed a serious case of lacquer peel. ill keep the thread updated as the changes are made and hopefully she turns out as good as i picture it in my mind.

dave_sr20
19-07-13, 18:29
@derek89 ... im gonna keep her red was thinking about a new colour but i dont know, maybe a different shade of red. think i saw yours at punchestown, the colour is unbelievable, very well looked after car.

dave_sr20
20-07-13, 10:53
bit of advice needed on this. after i get her sprayed im gonna send it off to get remapped, hoping to have it around 350ish. what parts will i need to have it at that figure? as it stands it has a front mount, s15 bb turbo, full exhaust downpipe etc and a walbro 255. from what i can tell ill need 550cc injectors, z32 and an afpr, anything im missing?

Dave
19-11-15, 17:48
Was looking for this thread earlier when I seen the othe sil80! Any updates on this?

dave_sr20
19-11-15, 20:13
No updates on this, it has seen better days to be honest but I am gathering funds together to get it back to its former glory.

I had got it resprayed about year ago and got stung with a guy who shouldn't be let paint a dog house. I kinda lost interest after that and parked it up for a while. when I went back at it i then noticed the passenger sill was rotten, so the plan is to strip it back to a bare shell and fix every last bit of it.... properly. I am hoping to get started at it early in the new year and have her back on the road for next summer, fingers crossed.

Just after going through your thread, lovely lookin car! Its a shame its parked up! hopefully you will find the love for it again and bring it back to former glory!

Dave
19-11-15, 21:23
That sucks about the sill! is it far gone? Was the paint very bad? Seems most people on the site seems to have a story about getting screwed by a painter recently! Flip in waterford seems to be putting out great results at the min after Grange's s15 and Niall14a's jzx81 and cooks86 s14 all on here.

Hopefully you get around to getting the work done!
