Skoze Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Putting this up for mr skoze, my bosses mint series one landy... Ooooh that's shiny! Mine's getting some much needed attention today, gonna clean it out and get it ready to go on holiday and have it's new engine fitted (which has worked out costing me £50 after selling my V8, touch) So much shit to order tonight though, nightmare. Ah well, MOT will be worth it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted June 2, 2012 Report Share Posted June 2, 2012 Interesting, I thought you had a B30 in the estate? is this a whole new lump? B32 on a 5 speed tranny should be great fun with that diff. You staying on stock management and twin vanos? Yeah, this is a completely different car, it's a 96 M3 Evo, came from Wales. Now LHD. The estate was a B30 but that was a complete fluke. Engine is being pulled apart now, really want to know what happened in there. Stock management for now, vanos sounding like a diesel but according to the dyno the torque curve is pretty much bang on so no need to fix Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prawny Baby Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 S'all good the B32 in a lightened stiffened car will make for an epic driving experience! With that Diff it'll be absolutely nuts What's the weight target? sub 1200? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomm Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 That looks sweet. How much did that cost? And how do you clean it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DrDoom Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Cheers guys! It's a mates car, got myself insured on it though! You're gonna laugh when I say this! £65... 3m adhesive matt black vinyl. The guy who's car it is works as a signwriter/vehicle graphics specialist, so we did it out of hours and trade price vinyl! Relatively straight forward to clean - warm water and a soft cloth - everything just wipes off it! No need to polish or anything as you're only after a dull finish anyway!

dann2707 Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Just been reading a thread on TDOC where someones bought a chavvy pug and returning it to standard and tidying it up. The chav had used this as a wheel spacers, a f**king "no dog fouling" sign hahahaha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pashley26 Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 Hero. Andee, WHAT THE f**k are those rear lights? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Andeee Posted June 3, 2012 Report Share Posted June 3, 2012 To Pashley26. They are standard lights that been tinted to a dark smoke ( Similar shade to the corsa vxr) I also thought i would customise it by having the reverse/indicator clear lense left as it is. to give it a look and style where as most people tint over that bit.

DrDoom Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Think he was talking about the fiesta Maybe so - we never know with him! First thing I thought was what were the lights on the silver thing, but you might be right! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dann2707 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 I googled them and they look standard? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pashley26 Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Maybe it is because they have been tinted, never noticed the white bits before. Aren't they ST lenses? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skoze Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 (edited) How much awesome am i likely to lose by not fitting the intercooler from my turbo diesel? Overheating isn't really gonna be an issue and i'm very tight for space - tempted to just drop it like a lot of others do.

Andeee Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 To Pashley26. Just standard standard lights that is all ;-) Also got a bmw 318 m sport diesel on the drive which is nice! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greetings Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 Someone on here did something like this a few years ago: Question is how long does this tyre paint last and how resilient is it to rain, cleaning and the actual movement of the tyre? I accidentally bought a set of 595's instead of Michelin slicks. I wanted the slicks partly for a photo shoot for when the car is ready, due to it's purpose it'd look a lot better on proper racing tyres than just ordinary black sidewall stuff. Now I have to paint these so they look roughly like this: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boumsong Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 It lasts quite well, gets shit up and fades though. Apply the paint/pen after having the tires fitted too. I did if before hand and when they bang the pressure in to seat the tire it cracked all the lettering. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prawny Baby Posted June 4, 2012 Report Share Posted June 4, 2012 I'd imagine if you drive properly it'll last a few weeks at Most Alex Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
