Not seen that last pic before .. very nice.

Also, why didn't you stay with the little plate in the first pic or is that a photoshop job?

I have moved that little plate onto the bottom splitter to cover some slight abrasion marks (high speed poultry interface), my proper plate will be going on after September. Offset to the passenger side small rectangular. I'm still trying to find B16PWR but it's not for sale:(

I wondered when the R32 camo was going to rear it's head :lol:

The vinyls/stickers are under consideration at the moment. I have every intention of getting some entries organised for next years Ten of the Best. Some of our members cars, either already on board or joining, will be very capable of taking part next summer. We will have a shop with basic merchandise up and running withing a month as well. Watch this space.

Stuart,

I have a copy of a rather fine game called Kaido Racer .. under the car modification section it has the ability to allow you to respray your car is almost any colour possible - lots of shades of each colour ...

If you want to have a play you can try out a few colour ideas!.

Kaido is wonderful, glad you like it. I have played with various colours and finalised what I want. Those of you that know know, those of you that don't will find out in due course. As long as I don't have to divert the costs to major mechanical work, the car will get a major cosmetic overhaul in the winter.

Update.

In preperation for the forthcoming Ring visit, I have pushed ahead with getting my Accusump kit fitted.

Image

I added a few options that would be helpful with my leaning towards circuit stuff. In my application I wanted the peace of mind of having positive oil pressure before I even turn the key to start the car. The default on my ignition means that I always sit there for a couple of seconds on start up waiting for the 'dead' light to go out, by which time the car will be 'dead' if I've had a leak overnight. With this set up, I can pop the key in the ignition and turn it around so the various lights come on, arm the AS kit and voila, 2 bar of pressure immediately :) If I get no oil pressure once armed I know I have a big leak and can simply check for problems rather than blow my engine to bits. The second advantage that my system gives me is surge protection. Not against electrical surges, that would be silly, but against oil surge that may be experienced when attacking Corum, for example, at 100mph+. The AS also gives me another 3.5 litres of oil in the 'system' which will help with cooling as well. Fantastic value for money, specialist fitting only and now I have it, I can see why so many race and high end drag cars rely on it

Image

The kit was expertly fitted by Gary @ AP tuning with the able assistance of young Chris. I provided the tea, coffee and biscuits.

Being a tart I have also fitted some aesthetic bits. A new sparco steering wheel has gone on, a shiny Nismo gearknob and I also have a Polycarbonate timing belt cover sho I can show off my HKS pulleys.
