ha ha ha and endless troubles:D
Cheers Carl.
Haha I'll have troubles for the next 15 years because of my balls. If you get what i'm saying. :D
That was you asking what fell off when I drove down the straight. haha
Ya, I have two ordered and they should be in Friday. Where would be without our pal Dave? :D I'll be trying to fit them in the garage Friday evening. You can make the tea. :)
Went to Goldstone today and had a bit of a play. Had no handbrake though which is kind of essential down there.
Here's a couple of videos. Thanks Keli for filming them. :)

Got tyres on the Volks yesterday. Thank you Johnny P, so i'm a happy chappy now. Also put the spoiler back on a while ago and like it now. Although the car needs slamming again before it's anyway interesting looking.

The car has been spending most of it's driving life in Waterford these days. Loads of fun down there on wet nights. :D
spacers and low, go go go! was it always that high?
Nope. I just raised it up after I got sick of hearing the skirts cracking every time I tackled a speed bump and seeing how much of the front bumper had been shaved off in the space of a month. It looks gay now though and is annoying me.
it does, correct! xx
it looks like afuckn mini bus in da pics length wise, the wheels look lost under it, savage bus though man, wat mpg ya getting out of her?
I haven't a clue, but if you drive like a granny you'd be very suprised at how economical they can be. SR20's drink way more go go juice than 1jz's.
good ta no amigo
I think thats about 25k's?? Id say less than that to be honest, best part of a fiver to go one way to work and i thought that was only bout 20k's. Nearly cheaper getting a taxi haha
Fuck knows, I put in a tank, or 60 quid and that will do me for work (blanchardstown - Airport approx and return X 5) and local driving. In the Stream ill get about 3 weeks out of a tank!!
car looks well as always greg :D,:D
regards petrol i think the 100 are great on it,and i hav a heavy foot like , i went from cork to mondello on about 20 to 30 euro and that was over 120km a hour a lot of the way ,my tezza turbo would hav went throug a lot more
Ya mine was mapped by Robbie to run on normal pump fuel. I can get from Arklow to Waterford and back, and around town a few times, for €20, if I take it handy. Like i've put €40 in the car since Sunday and i've been to Waterford, done some streeto and lots of overtaking, been down to Tramore, around Waterford city, back to Arklow, bombed around town a few times and there's still some of the €40 left in it.
The tyres I got don't hold air so the cheapness didn't pay off this time. Gay!!!!
I got a PFC off Dave in Japanese Perfromance for €600, and the map was €580 including new plugs. Those prices are guestimations at this stage. :) Robbie looked afer me though when a setting was changed on the PFC and the car was running like a bag of shite. He took the car back and ran it for half a day on the dyno to sort it, and didn't charge me anoher cent. :)
The commander with the PFC is handy to have because I can get petrol in different garages and watch the Knock reading to see how good or bad it is, and now know where to get good petrol which helps with the MPG.
Ya they are model specific alright. Maybe Dave in Japanese Performance could find you one???? I threw €50 petrol into the car Saturday and have done 200 hard driving miles and there's still a quarter tank left, so she's good enough on the go go juice. :)
Here's my Polish stunt driver friend Gregovski driving the car hard today. Shame on him.

You can never be too slippy. :D
yeow! good on the polskis! ha. i need more fun time asap
I ended up getting something like 250 miles for €50 of go go juice. Not too bad really.
Anyways.....
Did some bodywork today and during the week..

nice and sleek once again!!
Sort off. It didn't actually turn out all that bad considering it was sprayed at night in my yard, and had to be sprayed green, then black had to be lightly sprayed over it for it to match the car somewhat, and it looks ok from about 17 miles away. haha

Got some fwd spec 18's to have for spare drift wheels off Keli for Christmas and my birthday. Got all excited when I saw the wheels and then nearly did a little wee when I saw how much thread was left on the Federal 595's that were on two of the wheels. :D

FWD Spec beside RWD Spec. :D

Now one of the wheels had been hopped off a kerb at one point so that needs a good few slaps of a plastic mallet. They don't look that bad on the car though and I reckon if I got fairly man spec spacers they'd look pretty cool on it.

them wheels actually look well under it.
dont like the bumper:( child spec paint jobs FTW
lookin well ted;) wheels look well for some wreckage
car looks well man drift wheels ftw
ah uve ruined your kids work haha
nah man, looks good, i sprayed my front bumper on a civic a had before, there's no better feeling than doin it yourself:)
Ah I had to spray the bumper. It's way too noticeable and like a red rag to a bull with the cops. Especially after last weeks shenanigans with the feckers. My little man actually is delighted I sprayed the bumper, surprisingly enough. haha
I'll give the Volks a good clean up and refurb while they are off the car. I might even paint them.... what colour though? :)
leave them original color i guess ;-)
Dont paint them greg,Just polish the lip yourself man ,Start with 500 sand paper and work your way to 2000 wet.They'll come up like new,Lovely wheel.
Gonna attempt to polish them tomorrow. :)
Went to the beach today to walk the dogs and managed to crack the bumper off a bit of sand of all things. :mad: So that had to be stitched..

While I was doing that I got the missus to throw the 10j Volks on the front of the car to see how they looked...

I think they look ok on the front. They are 17x10 ET +31 with a 5mm spacer. With a bigger spacer and the car lowered again it would look amazing. I'm now having thoughts of finding a pair in 18x10 for the back though. Hmmm :D
Did some hard parking today with my mate's Supra(which is for sale). MY car is going into the bodyshop Monday and getting tarted up and sold on. Probably for 8k, maybe more. This is basically how it'll look when put up for sale... You'll just have to imagine the fixed bumper and it having 40mm spacers on the front and 5mm on the back. :D
