Wheels are the right job!

Thanks lads! Brendan, no hope of me making that journey back to cork ha. Originally bought the wheels for the womans accord. but on the way home i taught, fuck it il keep them for my own yoke. was unsure of a colour for ages. was going to paint them a metallic teal green at one stage. thank fuck i didnt. will be painting the bay in the same bronze. and plan on putting a bolt in cage in it somewhere along the line and it will also be going the same bronze colour.

Small update, im not so good in these areas. just basicly to lazy to keep a build thread going. not got too much in the lines of work. holding back to the winter months to get the engine dropped in. in the mean time i purchased this r33 for very handy money considering what they are selling for at the minute. going to driver it over the summer and have a bit of fun in it before it comes to the end of its life as it will be the organ doner for my rx7. i will be pulling the rb25 lump out and dropping it into the rx7 towords the end of this year. i bought it as a full car to save the hastle of sourcing bits all over the country to convert my rx7, and it was the ideal car to buy. engine wisxe it was good, body wise it had seen better days, shock tops were starting to rot, and it had got 1 of them 800yoyo spray jobs, its covered in orange peel and overspray.

here she is...






came with cheepo brides that were turning my back to shit on the journey home from cork. i needed to get rid of them. (NOTE THAT DRIFTOO STEERING WHEEL lol it was also shit...)
on the up side, the cheapo seats were bolted to genuine bride rails.


had a small, basic spec engine. was told it had metal head gasket but other than that was standard. went to view it turned out it had alot of things the owner never told me about..
alloy rad and shroud with external fan
front mount intercooler
apexi induction pipe and filter
forge bov
brand new walbro 255 pump that wasnt fitted
gtr coilpacks
screamer elbow
downpipe
full exhaust system
cusco 2 way
turbo timer
and a brand new clutch disc for good mesure.

got home and opend the boot to aload of standard parts like turbo elbow and downpipe. pulled all out and found this gem, a genuine nardi wheel. unfortunatly got scratched because it was sitting at the bottom of the boot under all the other parts. still puzzeling me why it was at the bottom of the boot, and the cheapo drifto wheel was actually in the car.


got onto mike fitz aswell about a dmac wing, told me they were flat out, gave me a date that hed have the wing and boom, turned up at my door that as expected, very helpful lads to deal with. and the wing blade is great quality. and its massive :P.
will be getting legs done up for it with a local crowd that do water jet cutting. want it to look like a BCL wing.





got onto dave in JDMdistro about injectors for rb25, and purchased some Nismo 555cc's on a rail with Nismo fuel pressure regulator



also got a z32 turbo ecu off Jay Rockett at DI-Motorsport, will be going to richard bradley to get it mapped on nistune when iv picked up all i need for the rb25.


heres a pic of the fleet, the work horse audi a4, the organ doner skyline r33 and the drifto project rx7 fd3, funny thing is i dont even like red that much.
