Pre RS spyshots

[dandan]

Jono, yeah the rad does sit quite high, it means the IC pipes are really high and the bonnet lifter doesnt sit down properly so it\'s not ideal. I\'m going to get some new IC pipes made up at some poiint, and may lower the rad slightly before i do.
Once I get an undertray I should be able to channel loads of air to the rad though because of the massive void in front of it, currently sits at 93 deg when cruising which could be significantly improved I think.

Dave, I hope to see it there too, is yours going to be making an appearance?

Ah i suspected as much! Although i never got a chance to see the car close up i was supposed to be looking at the car with a view to buying and repairing it, unfortunately the owner (not saying any names!!) never got back to me, perhaps because you\'d already whisked the beastie away and he didn\'t have the heart to tell me?

Anyway, it\'s good to see the car has found a good home, hope to see it close up at RS!

Cheers,
Adrian

ill be there dan.... sunday and monday mate

[dandan]

Adrian, it seems the guy I bought it from did the same thing to at least one other person on here too, I part ex-ed a car that he wanted for this rx, this was probably why he fobbed other people off except me, but he didn\'t seem to do it in a very polite way.

Don\'t look too close at RS, it\'s not exactly what I would call a \'mint\' car, looks better from a distance! lol!

I see...well what\'s done is done and so long as you\'re happy with the end result all\'s good! Just a shame people aren\'t more straight forward sometimes!

Well i\'m sure it\'s not that bad, always like the sound of what he had planned for the colour, but never had the chance to see it. I think it was a deep black with a blue pearl effect that he had in mind, if it came to pass i\'ll be having a good old gander!! Hope the sun\'s out!

serweeet.. you going to take it up the strip?

[dandan]

with this sort of power?
 


nah i\'ll let it sit around looking pretty instead this time, plus the gearbox is on the way out as it is.
i\'ll wait till i\'m wringing the T78 dry, then i\'ll take it up the strip!

[fro]

with this sort of power?

yeah! looks like a nice power curve to me.. 260 at the wheels is nothing to be sniffed at and it\'s just for fun anyhow

send the gearbox on it\'s way in style  :WaveBye

[daverey]

Well pleased for you Dan, wish I could have made the trip.
Dave

[Rixio]

Looking good Dan, what happened to your wheels then?

[dandan]

still on the lookout for a swap for some 17\'s or a sale for a half decent price rixio, just been too busy to pursue it much in the last couple of weeks!
