Have this up on ae86irl and said I might aswell throw it up here to:)

Before I start I just want to make it clear that my build threads are usually rubbish and my spelling will be really bad because im doing this on my phone ha:)

So I bought this cam about 4 months ago of a lad in mullingar, everybody was telling me that im not going to be a twin cam man because I had an s13 and laurel and what not but I bought it anyway.as soon as I drove it I fell in love with it.. after a couple of months driving it i started getting a bit bored, (I thought the car was perfect when I got it first) so I said fuk it ill just start throwin money at it. That didnt really work as the parts I was looking for are hard got and expensive so I just started gathering up whatever I could find and liked. Im goin to stop talking out my hole now and just put up a few pics,

The plans for it are:
Respray and whatever else I can think of to do to it:)

Thats it when I bought it..

So far whT iv done to the car is:

Jubiride spoiler,
Brand new omp wheel,
Put it through the nct, fixed all the problems with it and never bothered puttin it back through ha,
Hks cat back,
Walbro 255,
And bought a couple of sets of tyres:)

Im just goin to stick up the rest of the pics that I have now and over the next few weeks when shit gets serious ill update it a bit better.

Plan is to have the car ready for this trackday in mondello on the 16th of feb, so iv a shit load of work to do ha.

The whole interior is coming out now in the next day or two and its going to get flocked, k1984w of here is trying to get a little buisness of his up and runnin so if anyone else is looking it done:) might be one less rattle in it by the time im finished ha;)





Big enough update

Iv got most of the car primered now, I got a hand of a few of the lads last niteand we horsed through the work:)..

By the end of today I should be able to start polishing the whole shell and doors and all, that will just leave the kit wings and wheels to paint

loved this car in red,, even cooler in that colour now,, but sorry I have to say the wings are brutal looking,, I think its the raised bonnet maybe,, makes them look like there outa line or just sitting on,, just my opinion though,, its your car

subzero
30-01-14, 21:44
ah rick FFS ..... think of all the lads youd have thrown some tire shine on for the pics :p

seriously tho fair play looks awesome , not a big fan of raised bonnets either .

That is incredible looking man. I'm not normally a fan of ae86's but that thing is stunning, colour is awesome

31-01-14, 11:03
Looks well something similar to colour I've picked for the drift car it's different anyway set of fibreglass vented wings would probaly work better but it's a nice change

D-turbo-lad
31-01-14, 11:10
looks nuts i think . but still unsure on the way the wings are done think fpr ventd or non ventd wider wings would suit better but each to there own . hats off to being different and the to get great work the lads always turn out !!

Cheers lads:).. im more into the cut wings, I know the gaps arent perfect but I just never seen any vented wings I liked, they all look real cheap and out of proportion or somethin, but that's just me:) and plus I wanted to give it a track car look;)
