Right so scratch the last post,small update just so I can keep track of everything
I finally got a set of defi that I like now so selling all the others (smoked set is provisionally sold already)
What I'm putting into the car now instead of the apexi gauges is these:
Oil and water temp from series 2 and an advance cr boost gauge. (all complete just waiting on new temp sensors to arrive before i fit them)

Boost

A little bit wider again.....
So i picked up a set of 30mm rear overs as i felt the front of the car was a bit too fat for the rear. I never liked the bulky 50mm overs so i went with 30s and this is a few pics after test fitting them.
The original metal arches are sitting on top of the tyre in these pics so the car is not sitting as low as it normally is so i'll be rolling and cutting them when I fit the overs properly. Also will be adjusting the front height when get smaller tires to sit a bit lower and fit my defis...
Anyway, here some pics, let me know what ya's think

Had some bad news today so can't make it to japfest this weekend, really gutted but i'll get down again for the craic.
Would have had the car finished today and ready otherwise but here's a couple of pics of how its sitting now. 99% done, just need to fit wind visors, roof spoiler and rear bumper.
Done most of the work myself but want to thank the rest of the zero7four crew for helping me out when they could... this is a temporary paint job and more of a refresh as the bumpers were getting tatty
Anyway..
Let me know what yous think... i like it anyway

Bummer but shur thats life,hopefully ul have plenty more events to be bringing it to.
Ah some things in life are more important man. Pity ya wont make it down. Was finally looking forward ta seeing this in the flesh but I'm sure that chance will arise at some point. Lovely finish on the matt man and fairplay for dogging inta it yourself.

So I have the extrerior more or less complete now, just have to fit the dmax roof spoiler.
Have a load of new parts to install and a few bits i want to do in the near future.
Have a brand new intercooler and piping, new alloy rad and full set of defis to install. Gonna paint the rollcage gloss white too but i'm in the middle of buying a house so that'll all be done when i get moved into the new garage :azn:
Anyway this is how it's looking now with the rear quarters and all done, I like it :D
