Adrian\'s old car has shown up again ;)
That car used to belong to a Guy of here (eatmyrx7dust) he spent ALOT!! of money on it and last time i saw it the car was Spotless, i think 99% of the work was done by Pip at WGT.

Yea tried that email address and it comes undelivered for some reason...not to worry i might get his addy from some old bills etc,that i have:Thumbs-up
if you look at his email addy - its wrong - there is no FULLSTOP inbetween his first and last name - its got a / instead - remove this and try again
have a look at the PICS in my sig of the meets - there are some more pics on there of it
Stu

Very nice looking car mate, Mazdaspeed GTC kit looks awesome !!!!
I agree with Laeeq though, not a fan of those lights, either get some of the CWEST type ones or back to pop ups.
Great car though.

I know the front bumper is GTC and the skirts,but what about the spoiler and the rear bumper?
Spoiler is deffo 99 spec mate, I have one myself waiting to go on.
Rear bumper is standard mate with some spats...I would say they are Mazda ones but could be wrong.
Like the way the skirts have been blended in.
theres a closer pic mate:)
Looking very nice and has the right mods too! Shame the weathers not a bit better!!
Very nice :D You\'ll have to get out with the camera when you get a bit of sun!
Cheers lads,yea i was gutted when i woke up and it was raining!!still took it for a spin.need to learn about the apexi,gona give it a good service in the next week or so,what oil do you guys recommend i think the kid i bought it off was using semi synthetic magnatec...any good?
cheers
very nice looking car, that couldnt have been much cheaper than the red one you were looking at though?, surely.
Quote from: antnicukvery nice looking car, that couldnt have been much cheaper than the red one you were looking at though?, surely.
i paid 6,400 for it mate
thats a bargain, good find, especially with a well known history
oil is always a huge dabate. WGT would not be happy if they knew there engine had had anything but 100% mineral oil in it. but it is up to you. lots and lots of threads on it. however mazda have recently published a statement saying only mineral oil should be used in rotarys, and synthetics are bad. the synthetics were bad bit was not backed up with any data or specifice oil figures to show which ones etc. but like i said it is your choice. read some of the threads

Just read through a boat load of threads and fek!!!!!!i know on the rebuild warranty that was given when the engine was built by pip...it says warranty will be void if any semi or fully synthetic oils are used...im 50/50 at the moment pardon the pun:2Rolleyes

lol i hoping to find out a bit more about the car of the lad who was a member on here,the paintwork looks a bit tired in places,so i\'ll probably respray it over the winter months.:chat
going for a change in colour? or just same?
:)
Quote from: D1 WTFgoing for a change in colour? or just same?
It\'s either the same colour or a candy,but you really need to be keeping the car in a garage for candy\'s...1 scratch can mean a full shoot!!,im gona have a think about it over the next few weeks,i do like midnight purple though so i might paint it the same but add a little twist to the laquer.
keep the same colour m8.
I was a little adventurous with mine haha

Well basecoted the whole car in black (original colour) then fine lined the graphics out masked the whole car and used a small gravity fed gun to do the whole graphics in mazda perky blue metalic, then edged them in graphite to soften them and tiped them in silver all in basecoat, finally coated it with 3 layers of deep laqure.
It works better in the flesh than on pictures as the shine is deep and not plasticy.
Go do somthing different with your car :D

i did wonder as you mentioned you had just done your first job on the car. You might wanna put a thread up and also let the guy know who sold the car to you so he can inform ebay, i assume its his account that has been ripped off.
