finally got around to pulling this little darling out of my car, getting the crack welded up tomorrow.

also got my stainless zip ties so time to make a start on wrapping the headers. sh*t weather for time in the shed but I'm motivated somehow so bring it!

well my car has been going pretty good. the diff is harsh but makes the car very predictable.
i've wrapped my headers and i'm just working on the motivation to put them in.

my starsharks are now more or less sorted.
still waiting on new black wheel nuts, and once i have my electroplating kit set up i'll be able to zinc plate (w/ black dye) the nuts and bolts around the lip.

specs for those playing at home are 14x6.5 +13 with 185/60 RE001 and a 5mm spacer up front for additional brake clearance.

...now the wheels have me thinking about having nice paint :? :roll:
