Yet again this cars pissing me off.

Only good thing from today was i Bought the stuff to put the battery in the boot or behind my seat not sure yet.

Also started chucking the T28 together and nothing seems to fit right.

Paid £37 for a turbo flange( well ripped off) that fits ok but carnt get the dame pipe from there to the airflow unit.

Also the hard piping wont line up to the turbo elbow looks like i need to get a bit of piping made up but i have ran out of cash and this meaning i carnt do my drift day.

The car will not run now till after christmas which is CRAP dosnt help the fact i really dont know what i am doing.

So yet again i hate the car.

gutted

you were lookin forward to that drift day aswell.

I keep running out of money for mine too, right pain in the arse isnt it

is that all you need for it now to get it running - the bit of pipe to get it line up?

Think so matey really i need sombody who knows what they are doing to have a look at what i need to do or give me a couple of pointers.

Just pissing me off i want it running.

I had the chance of buying a modded 200 to the spec i am trying to get this to but its like cheating to me.

I TELL YOU ITS THE CURSE OF CAR OF THE YEAR.

Got myself a bit o cash for my birthday which i have already started spending on the car.

Bought a sparco buket seat and a momo snap-off boss so i can take the steering wheel off the car and bring it a little closer to me when its on.

Also going to get the other little bits i need to have the car running but as i am not going drifting nextweekend i am in no big hurry.

Bought a sparco bucket seat and snap off boss.





Just need to get the seat fitted.

And the boss is on brings the wheel nice and close now.

Having trouble lining the turbo elbow up to the hard pipe from the fmic anybody have any idea's do i need to cut the pipe or do i need to get one made up.

good work mate not long now

Prob not going to get it on the road till after xmas now matey there isnt any rush to be honest means i'll be able to do some of the other bits i want so it will run right and not be a rushed job when its on the road.

Things i hope to have done in the next 12 months are.

Cage (6 point)
pair of bucket seats
sileight front end conversion
with carbon bonnet
kit on and car sprayed
avcr
different exhaust
spacers
new spoiler
new coilovers
driftworks bottom arms
hydraulic handbrake unit
solid subframe bushes

Hense why i have started working for a agency aswell as my normal job.

I have only had the car since june 2006 and have done far more than i 1st planned so why stop now.

Thats great that fella, some good plans and even better to see you are happy to put the effort in again, I know it was starting to get on your nerves recently and putting you off even being arsed with it at times, but keep up the hard work fella, it will be worth it in the end!!

It will matey.

I have learnt now that when i get pissed off with things going wrong i just leave it for a while.

I am getting neil at park garage (fella who is doing stu's car)
to sort the tubby and fmic out proply for me as it needs bits that i carnt do or make once this is done its just about getting bit n bobs.

The cage might be here quicker than i thought though not saying i have it but looks promising.

Good to see your positive again Tupac
Where you got the bucket seat hidden lol... (From Donna)

Small steps, i agree with your thinking
just walk away when it goes wrong, easier to say than do. !

Now she knows i have bought this.

Dosnt know about the cage though

ah i hate seeing this thread!

every time i do i keep going back to sxoc's for sale threads.

Sorry mate once its done i'll let you have a go (i am sure this will put you off buying one )

Little update.

Neil from park garage is comming to look at the car 2mora and will be taking it away soon to sort the fmic and t28 for me.

I have also ordered some newlights and gtr grille from Japan for the bargain price of £120 for the lot.

these are the lights

Going for the Sil80 look

You do know that to fit the lights and grille, you also need a matching front bumper, wings, bonnet, and maybe slam pannel...?
