Seeing as I have posted a lot of cleaning pics, I wont really bother this time. i'll go for some "different" ones, this time as it was just a shampoo over ready for a meet tonight, I got some beading and reflection ones, and some flake!

Busy week ahead so lots of pictures no doubt, will keep you all updated, BHP Monday and FITP sunday, im going to die on both days!

Beadddding, water was running off like a ducks back!







hard to get a flake shot properly on a phone lol





See the flake on the arch? it's a lot more than the normal car paint, so I have a feeling thats had a bit of a repair job done somewhen, doesn't stick out like a sore thumb as its done very well, but still all the more reason to get my arches done.

I'll put pics of my car up in a minuite, just quickly edited and wanted to show you all a car that has beaten me to my wheels This is the colour i'm getting and the tyre size, but I wont be spacing it so much and i'll have it sitting lower and better than this!

Pics are up in photo gallery.

Had a great day, did 15 minuites track time, kept up with a Clio 172 the whole time, overtook a Civic Type R, kept an S2000 behind me and overtook and left a puma'd ZS and a mk6 Was great fun!

Being on standard springs was fun, very twichy, had a few moments of "ahhh I think I might run out of talent!" but kept it on doesn't help I have a nankang and a P6000 on the back haha, but it help up well!

So I gave the car it's final? Clean on these wheels hopefully! Still a boring high ZS, but I love how clean it can get with an hour or two's elbow grease.

Heres the reason I can't wait to get my machine polisher.. lol





And cleaaan










Spot the new mod?

Just been through from the start. Looking good Chris much better than when you got it. Super clean in most of your shots Sounds awesome in the videos

I had an Imperial blue Zs for a few years. was a wicked car

Keep the updates coming

Yeah I had a silver one before this, if you've got a year you could read through 2 and a half years of project thread. man that car changed a lot.

Always wanted a blue and circumstances meant I might as well get one Well happy I did they are a great colour, don't think i'll ever bother selling it now as they aren't worth enough to bother.

Cheers

Yeah it's a great colour. Looks stunning in the sun when detailed

Bit of a shame they are so down in value these days but hey ho. There is an imperial blue phase one in local car sales place to me for £700 has been there for ages.

When you planning on getting the coilovers on?

Yeah doesn't bother me, more incetive to keep it lol They will only rise it value eventually, talking years from now but you never know.

Going to pick up a set of coilovers next sunday for £20 to get the adjusters on and hopefully they will be the right adjusters for my coilies, once I find that out we will be in business!

_________________

Yeah I'm sure the more they get broken and scrapped the more chance they have of rising in value.

What coilovers you got, is it not possible to buy the adjusters direct? I had BC's on the m3 and all components were available separately.

think I'm going to be going for Gaz Golds. Had them on my last XR2 and they were faultless

APs. Yeah I can but fuck paying £100 for four adjusters! I might have to if these ones arent right though.

Im a cheapskate I had gazs on my old one but they cost me £100 for 3 + £170 for a brand new strut. Id love gaz golds but id never pay for them lol everything is rather budget for me. Until I finish uni and get a decent job I hope! Lol
