Maybe Donato???? Red FD in Edinburgh

[James S]

Going down the motorway coming home from Edinburgh, think it was the A720 and seen a red FD going the opposite way with i think it was a scoot bonnet.  Looked like Donato\'s car very nice

yeah it was on sunday. I was through at IKEA then called down to JVS to have another look at a red FD they have but all the shutters were down so i\'ll have to go through again some time

[Donato]

Ikea! horrible place at the best of times but on a sunday! nightmare stuff,

i think JVS are only open on a sat at the weekend...

i was just on my way to give it a good clean and polish, its looking very shiney today in the work car park


I take it you are on the hunt for an FD?

[James S]

IKEA was ridiculously busy I kept getting lost in their! :reallymad

Im in the middle of trying to find a good rx so I went to JVS about 3 weeks ago they have two red FD’s their just now! have you had any experience dealing with them? I spoke to Andy and he seems to be a decent genuine guy who knows a fair bit about jap cars.

Donato,

washing and waxing your car..hehe, your sooo funny!! Only kidding mate. BIG thanks for your help of Saturday, sorry i had to shot away. Dinner is definitely on me before the Urban race night

I\'m assuming you managed to get your car put back together??

Hi mate,

No probs, i assume its working fine?

I did really wash and polish it! Took me 3 hours yesterday! I will try and get pics up to prove it!

Yeah got the car back together fine, the new rad is making such a difference in temps, they are much more constant. The temps have not got high enough to bring the fans on since i fitted it, thats in town too! Very happy with the results. and it looks a lot better than the stock rad too!

How is your new arrival? Everything going well mate?

cheers

Donato

..thanks for asking.

Hayden is doing fantastic, he\'s due home with Julie today. Not be long before i get him interested in rotary engines!

Glad you got the radiator\'n\'stuff refitted.

Dials looking great, although the rev needle idles right at the bottom, rather than at the marked 900/1000rpm....the idle is fine though.

Good to hear it mate.

First toy - remote control FD, dad can \'look after\' it until he is old enough!

Thats strange about the idle!??! we never even removed the needle?
I will be taking mine apart tonight to fix it and paint the dash. Its never ending!

Cheers
