need a bit of help and maybe some offers recently had a clutch fitted by carl at haywards . no issiues other than they pointed out that my vehicle has a bent chassis .bought from a guy trading under ss imports gt cars and vis carbon "nick sutton" is a shister been in the business too long and from what ive found ripped many people off .
 
so im re shelling my beloved and need help on getting new bits and selling old . the car has been involved in a heavey front left impact and twisted the front arms so much so that the lower subframe has bolts missing because they dont line up with the chassis or lower engine subframe . very annoyed and gutted .never had any idea car came with a fresh mot from his mate and only noticed the damage from hayward pointing it out .
 
every thing on my car is up for sale with the re shell id like to follow the direction of more performance and less looks . no more rice rocket lol
 
her is a pic of what the car is /has
(http://i2.photobucket.com/albums/y10/ascaudio/DSC00013.jpg)
as i know it has a c west drift r front bumper
border side skirts and wings
mazda speed carbon bonnet
carbon gt style wing suppose to be a rare one
rear grp deffuser copy but fit s well
second internal pod passenger side for rear view camera fitted in boot lock
good doors all internal s very good condition .
 
every thing has potential to be sold if you need or want ask i might let it go  .
keeping the main trany and brakes engine for the reshell
 
what i need is
 
id like a feed type 2 bumper with the weird square canards
some simple wings and flat carbon side skirts
a carbon rear diffuser with the wide rear side fins if that makes sense and the rest of the effort will be put in handling engine and performance the true jap way
 
any help please post

That\'s cold, dude, sorry to hear it. It\'s a testament to the quality of the handling of these cars that one can be so damaged and still drive right. My last one turned out to have all the suspension arms bent down one side, the mechanic that looked it over for me said it looked like the previous owner must have kerbed both wheels at high speed and just bent the whole lot. I never knew till both hub bearings went on the same side at the same time!

Hope you can get it all sorted better than new

hopefully gsb i have google his name and found a whole host of complaints and problems with this guy .
when i bought the car he owed me some parts for sale of the car that didnt happen but im more concerned about a trader selling a dangerous car to be honest so trying to speak with trading standards and see if i can get him to court and re cover the costs but need to find some one in the know and see what my options are .

only thing i would say envy is that the wings are fitted very well and are bonded to the skirts because of the vents in the wing and front qtr so it all lines up beautifully
Title: FAO of every one please read
Post by: ENVYD on November 16, 2008, 10:33:33 AM
the whole kit is feed mate, part from RE-A bonnet and c-west headlights!
 
ask Bobbit on here, he has a set of feed wide rear wing going spare thats i was going to buy off him but not 100% if i want them yet!
 
do you have an e-mail mate?

Gutted for your news bud, a new shell will transform the handling to how it should be, plenty of shells out there that I know off.

Will the Border side skirts fit normal front wings?, if so I will be interested in the side skirts

they should fit even better to stock wings mate as you dont have to try and fit the skirt between to vents!
