-puts pinky to corner of mouth- ONE MILLON DOLLARS!
probly something around that price bracket lol. im also thinking about tidying up the engine bay, i see xr6ts with the red cover so i was thinking about getting that onto mine, or maybe even sparying it at work -we have a spary painting booth set up- and doing it in a gloss blue or something along those lines. i also wanna get that expanison tank (i think thats the one, you know the ugly one on the left thats been the same in nearly every falcon i've see haha) that is made of metal, cost around 400 bucks but looks tops for a tidy engine bay. whats peoples thought of the ideas so far? this is gonna be a slowish build due to the fact im on apprenticeship wages and im also paying the car off lol.

oh yeah, i forgot the tyhpoons came out with a blue cover haha.
yes apprentice wages arent the best but at least they arent forever aye, the expansion tank will look awesome, well worth the money and just makes everything look nice and clean, i'd also like to get my hands on ecu cover and so on, plently of time to look around lol

Welcome back to the worlds slowest build!
 well since i left this off, i've moved house and now have a granny flat haha. and my money has been going into making it very nice, new tv and shiz. but anyways, gonna start foucsing back on the car for abit,. started off by getting my rotors skimmed (was getting shook to death when iput the brakes on) this is fixed, and i also went down to the local auto one, thanks to the advice of fordman351 i bought some light tint after being in a modding mood i removed the tail lights and sparyed two coats on to them. i covered the reverse light (white strip across the bottom of the light) just an idea we came up with.   i'll get some day pictures tomorrow anyways, hopefully i'll getting some king springs of ebay soon, and it'll be lowered onto my stock rims untill tax time. which in that time i'll be getting 19 or 20 inch rims  i'll be a cool kid finally.im not too sure about changing out the springs on ba's tho. if anyone has any advice on how to do this... PLEASE tell me haha.. Cheers to the people still reading this haha and sorry for the slow build, second year wages soon tho!

Well i think alot of people are starting to lose interest in this build.
so im gonna try do more and more on this when i can. i nicked some blanking gormets from work and have removed my spoiler. there is a bit of rust in the holes tho, soafter work today i took it down to one of the painting places, the guy there has told me 300 dollars to sand it back and respray the whole boot again. so i've tought before i take it down there in a few weeks i'll save up abit more cash and get them to fully poilsh the car (to get rid of the water marks mainly, and the marks from where the mud flaps have been sitting) this weekend or a day after work i shall remove the mud flaps too. thanks for reading guys.

haha good to see theres more B series nuts keeping an eye out.
i am quite liking it without a spoiler i must say. and im thinking i wont get a djr now. i drove past an force 6 (dream car... drool) and to my amazment... he looked at my car as i turned into the road he was on. boy.. i felt good hahah. sad i know.. and yes matt, next stage shall be dumping her, which im hoping to do myself (if possible) i shall be saving my pennys, and getting a spring compressor and finding out how to do them. she'll be lowered on superlows for now, with the stock rims, as im not sure if i would like to get rims at this stage. because i might getting rid of her next year, but in saying that, once all this is done i'll most likely wanna keep her haha. Here is how she sits now, blanking gormets fill the holes, but im thiking of making up some blanking plates. which are the shape of the spoiler legs, the same colour as the car and they cover the holes, seen it on a black xr8 on youtube. looked very nice.  Thats only two coats of tint at the moment, and it ran alittle  enjoy!
