  1. Mb springs on mg shocks will work
  2. I mean took it apart for painting, to paint it in pb I wouldn't have had to take the doors of but because I I'm changing the colour I need to paint the insides of the doors and all.
  3. Front end all wire wheeled and rust treated and black hammerite. After talking to my mate about a respray and ceramic lacquer for a few months i said feck it and tore it down. Then i decided of a colour change to r33 midnight purple i tore it down even more lol Ohh yeah and got new wheels too.
  4. Roof in primer for those who wanted to see And bootlid welded with a skim of isopon needs more tho. I actually forget how much work has gone into it untill a look at the photos.
  5. Thanks for the comments fellas. it shouldn't be it's still out lol. I never took any lol the I took the aerial out and washer jet out and welded it up its filled and UN primer, I'll get a pic for you tomorrow. no mate long old build slowly but surely lol I'm actually working on a wee sri corsa to drive while this is being done. if your doing it don't used jdm your shafts will be too small used UK dc2, I wouldn't do it if I was you it's only because mine where £250 with wheels.
  6. First off camber doesnt kill tires its toe does so id say you should get an alignment done, but tbh it doesnt look all that bad.
  7. Right where was I now that every thing is uploaded to a decent image host. These photos my not be in the right order ive been doing this over the last year. After i got the five stud done i drove it round to my mates body shop to get the roof painted as it was rusting see pics So we pulled the window out and found this and this, thats it cleaned up but it was badly rusted so then this had to happed to get those rusty bits sorted, you can see the rust at the bottom corner of the window. Patched up zink primer then black primer might have used some isopon cant remember its that long ago. while the front end was in bits I wire wheeled the rust and treated it and stone chipped the life out on it. Sold a few things i wasnt using like my 1/5 hpi baja I never had time to use it and when I did the kids where with me and didnt like it. But they made way for these And on to cleaning the rear arches and fitting coilovers That ill do for tonight lol more to come.
  8. You probably seen it on the fb page. I traded in those 15" for 16" grids, more pictures and info later. They came up cheap and I needed to change the rear calipers as they where sticking so I went for it.
  9. I've loads of pics it just getting them loaded onto a hosting site that lets you copy the post a bigger image without having to pay.
  10. I sold this. for this which only lasted or a couple of months, i then bought this I got it cleaned up and put a set of Rays on it i had in the garage with the intentions of refurbing the oem wheels. I had some on accord sport wheels that i refurbed just before christmas last year. At that time this was the spec Atr recaros B18c4 head rebult with Itr valves and cams rolling roaded at 191bhp 4-2-1 manifold Mongoose exhaust with sports cat Whales p***s intake Ngk plug leads Aircon removed Usdm rocker cover Next thing to do is to fit the five stud setup. Ive got them stripped down for powder coating. Five stud fitted Had to replace the fuel tank so went nuts with the stone chip. That will do for tonight Ill update more tomorrow. Cheers
  11. What about this exhaust is it for sale?
  12. Please put the vti lip back on looked so much nicer.
  13. Ha a guy that likes thing in even numbers lol thanks for all positive comments, couple of new things coming soon so I'll update on arrival.
  14. Can you not lathe a few mm off the back off the wheel to bring it into the arch a bit and you won't have to run as much camber and you won't need new tyres every 4 months?
  15. Aye going to get it just need to gather the money. I'll not be changing the inlet mani just the exhaust for the 98 spec teg one and cams then a remap
  16. I think im going to put it as think it will help it and if i don't like it ill take it out lol. I'll be putting cams and 98 spec mani on it at some point and then ill get a remap.
  17. Should I put one into my mb6 or buy a teg head at the same money? Obviouslythere will be alot more costs to fit the head, or s80 now and cams and remap later down the line?
  18. Thanks for the positive replies, im glad you all like the wheels so do i lol I was thinking about putting a dc2 head on or dc2 box but haven't quite decided on which one yet.
  19. Bear with me on this not something i normally do on forums so I hope the pictures work lol Some of you my know this as a fellow members car who sold it to me after someone in a dturbo decided to drive into the back of him. Unlucky for him but lucky for me So pulled the boot floor out and with a bit of it was like new just needed a rear bumper, so fixed it up with cable ties until i got sorted. This is how i got it but with the 5 spoke vti wheels, mgzs shockes springs, arb and powerflow cat back I also managed to swap my half leather for full leather and got mg door card off ebay no pics Sold the fans and got dc2 wheels no pics with the dc 2 wheels just use your imagination lol looked actually well the white on silver better than I thought. I got some Rays engineering wheels 17" x71/2 et 30 I knew I had to go low to pull them off so out with the mg stuff and in with the ebay specials. Uploaded with ImageShack.us So I got tyres on them and fitted them on, as I thought the rear arches needed rolled. Got them fitting nice and snug with a few mm in between, notice my cable tie fix on ther rear bumper lol So a car show was coming up and it was about time I got my car all cleaned up and get the things done that I wanted done as the only time my cars are sitting right are when there up for sale so it was the perfect push for me to get it all the bits done that i needed to do. I valeted the interior first as it was a bit smokey with the leather seats i had put in, next up was to get the wheels painted from the black to this matt bronze Got the powerflow off for the dc2 center, decat and 5zigen back box Also got an mg zs spoiler of the last owner painted and all. Got my windows tinted 40% allround and got my wheels on, buffed the car up waxed and I was ready for sho werks Uploaded with ImageShack.us My car at the show, there was a new Nissan GTR beside me stealing all my thunder So there you go im having bother with the pics and its getting late lol hope I didnt bore you.
