Title: Something a bit different
Post by: hillery69 on July 25, 2003, 07:30:13 AM
My car has been away at the bodyshop for 3 weeks now and it feels like a lifetime. I should have it back the begining of August I hope! I have decided to do something completely different with the bodystyling staying away from the dreaded Veilside kit. It will go to its first show in its new state in September at Trax but I hope to take it to the next pub meet in Dartford.

Could be! I hope to have it back by the weekend but it is looking unlikely as I have not got the wheels yet and I need to get the arches rolled before the respray.

Damn.. I\'ve been thinking about orange and I know Sicknote wants to paint his orange too.

I\'ll have to stick with silver now then! :(

Next you\'re gonna tell me you\'ve imported a Mazdaspeed Type 15th body kit!

No I haven\'t got a 15th aniversary kit, your alright on that one:D
Title: Something a bit different
Post by: Dan Norton on August 07, 2003, 08:47:39 PM
Yea orange as a colour would be good!

But what about a gold?!?!?

Theres a gold on the new astra coupes that is awesome i reckon!
Called Titan gold, really bright and slighty pearlescent.

I\'m thinking that for when i get my FD3

Dan!!

Post by: Renesis on August 07, 2003, 10:40:08 PM
Gold is the least popular colour for cars this year (red is very slightly more popular this year).  Silver is the most popular colour.

Just some stats for you ;)

Hi hillary, yea i spoke to your bro... i\'m having boost control problems and fuel cut at the moment! coolant and oil is fine, so don\'t need a rebuild just yet i hope! just the fuel cut is really annoying me!
yea that would be good mate, i\'d like to see yours aswell!

Matt

I have just been on the Girl Racer site and heard you went to the pub meet and gave them what for, good for you they needed it they are a bunch of arrogant twats!:D

Have you got a fuel cut defender if so it may be that causing the fuel shut off if you are running the boost to high.

I would like to have a look at your FD, only seen it a couple of times going past. You about at the weekend?

Hi  Matt,

Please please please don\'t keep driving your car around letting it fuel cut or you will be a bit more than annoyed !!!! cos you WILL wipe your motor out.

What mods have you got on it ?,

lf  you have loads of mods ( and you don\'t need many to get fuel cut ) just for now stick your std silencer back on and it will control it, yeh l know it ain\'t cool but it will hopefully save your engine till you can get something to solve your problem, like a Power FC !.

Sorry to be an old woman, just hate the thought of a self inflicted dead Rotary Agggggggggggggggg

Hope this helps.  



All the best Clive

So Rx7\'s are not welcome, oh well, maybe I\'ll scoot on over just to see what happens

really don\'t think boards that judge you by your car are very nice places though, I\'ve never had any trouble on any board myself
