Hi mate,

thanks for that matey :)

unfortunately it is a problem with arch trims, but they look ace so its worth it :)

well i got back from holiday last night and first thing on the list was winding my rear coilovers back down after bugjam, so it looks normal again!

checked carb balancing, did a few maintenance checks like i do from time to time and all is well

ordered a new oil pump tonight along with the 2 gaskets required so hopefully tappy tappy will be sorted :)

With thanks to MarkCrox, You ended up getting it then...

That looks really smart mate, good work!

sweet thread and very helpful as i might be venturing down the saloon route!

Nice stickers man ...... Same about the dwain pipes in the back ..

Joke :) ..

Did you even have back seats :S ?

As i said on FB, love it mate!

This car is just immense!

I am famous! :)

For those who haven't noticed, there is a shot of me in the RWYB que at bugjam on the bugjam 26 tv program!

And then also another shot of me and my friend attempting to ride bmx's with beers in our hands :)

Be rude not too i guess, go the whole hog and that

Tell what you do need.. Clean set of door cards .. Tbf mate, I'd just get a few things retrimmed :)

Looks incredible mate, real insparation!

I was working from adle for a few weeks earlier this year and saw this almost every morning - recognised it from kirkstall as i used to see it parked there a lot but don't go that way much now (when i saw your e30 touring parked there instead i was like wtf, why would he sell the loon!? but then it came back haha! - what happened to the burgundy one on starmags? or was that the same car?), i drive a red mk3 coupe atm and came across this thread looking for carb ideas. Just thought i'd post up and say the car looks wicked on the move man, i think i walked past it at harewood the other week as-well but didn't register enough to stop and look it over.

I drive a lot of the same roads in you vids too out past otley and skipton way, so if you ever see me give us a wave, my bro has a red g40 too so chances are you'll see us about.

anyway, wicked project mate keep at it.

How doos mate, think i saw you in guisley not so long ago, theres a thread in the spotted section!

Yeh my girlfriend works at a nusery in adel and i drop her up there everyday, not seen you around there though :S

And yeh you must be thinking of the same car haha you will be seeing the beemer again soon though once the ahit weather is here!

just ordered a new Omex Clubman rev limiter, with launch control this will be fun

just had a friend make me two 13x7 banded steels for my drag slicks :)

any thoughts on colours?

strip only so something mad, bright pink or green or something. Doesnt have to match anything lol

Is that hotrod with a firegrill ? lol

That hotrod has to be owned by popdragon?

I like the prospect of wide steels, this would look cool with some nice 14" steels, not just for the strip
