Its been a while since i added to the car. I have been having so much fun just driving (this was supposed to be a weekend toy but i drive it every day).
I just installed a K&N typhoon intake and what a great noise it makes, should have done it ages ago. I also have a 5zigen exhaust comming.
I just cant get enough of this thing, i am luvin it.

Aha, now I know what colour my hardtop is... Crystal Blue
Not a bad colour when the car is lower than stock

You need to paint your car to match the top

Nah...
The idea when I bought the hardtop was that I was going to paint it black asap (plus I thought it was going to be a darker blue lol) but when I saw it I decided that would be a shame because it had spent its entire life under a sheet in their spare room, absolutely immaculate. Its grown on me now though, almost the same blue/white combo that Austin Healey used on some of the 3000's

I have been looking for some 17inch wheels to put on my car. I sent an email to mania and have not had a respose (their loss of $2000+). So i have been looking else where.
Jax came to the party and ordered me some wheels and reoo1's do put on.

I've got a clip with the car just stationary in the garage before. Phone was propped up on a brick and set to record, hop in the car and rev away.
Another option is to just go for a drive with the phone sitting on the centre console.
Obviously these both depend on having a phone capable of recording sound, but most current phones can do that.
