Re: A NB8B Turbo progress.
Good to see you back on the forum Ian! That silver NB was a properly sorted ride (still feel a bit foolish for not jumping on the chance to park it in my driveway).
Given your good taste in cars and insatiable desire for a fast daily, I can't wait to see your next project

- one of the best looking NBs around, classic roadster Dark Green with NB8C headlights (and a Borg Warner EFR6258 turbo)
Does it still have Bronze rims?
- if not, that needs to be the first mod, screw the other niggling issues.

Re: A NB8B Turbo progress.
Happy to say the bronze have gone and the shiny 6ul's took their place.

Re: A NB8B Turbo progress.
