Kopite Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 And now you've got a Vectra for a run around! How is that by the way Ro, seems like a decent choice for an A-B. Pick it up today or tomorrow, it's just having it's MOT done. Hoping for a hassle free runabout i don't mind using (the Skoda was a bit too small) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob_Mitchell Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 1) continue to chrome everything i can. 2) end of the year get re-trim- black leather with orange stitching and piping. 3) try and source a decent roll cage. 4) fancy k-sport brakes front and rear- later in year. just chrome the bloody lot...............

Matt H Posted January 12, 2010 Author Share Posted January 12, 2010 2) end of the year get re-trim- black leather with orange stitching and piping Best get mine done first then! Just had a though, perhaps a half cage in the back, also covered in leather will be nice... ummm. Might be a bit out of budget though.

magictorch Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Break 450 on stock turbos..... Go big single:) Some track and drag days:cool: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Callaway Motorsport Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Some nice plans everybody has Mine: Get car built up and imported in the coming month. After that: Full fuel system to replace everything oem. + Remap and crank up the boost. Finish testing our own BBK for MK4 and fit it discs and calipers allround. Bullseye turbo setup to replace my T04R kit, depends on options, like the quick spool on the setup i have now... and just want a BB billet turbo for more reliability. without sacrificing good engine response. Cage + rear seats out (decided this the other day) Maybe change Fcon for a Solaris or AEM V2. Not sure yet. End of year target: 2nd engine to rebuild completely with forged internals and worked on head. (small chance of making our own billet Crank for the 2JZ depending on developments) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JamieP Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Built engine is being sorted by MVP and SRD as we talk and its off to baldy for a few touch ups on the body when the weather gets better. I keep thinking about selling and buying a new GTR but im resisting the temptation for now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
miko_supra Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Get the car running for a start Reach the weight loss goal and hopefully get the car under 1400kg Possibly go single turbo in the summer if funds and situation is all good.

stevie_b Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 wheres the best place for cambelt and tensioner at moment I got mine from Nic on here a bit before he stopped trading. Until he starts up again, I'd suggest Steve Manley (do a search for his name). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pistonbroke Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 Rub down dash and spray matt black. Thinking of having the rev counter a white el-glo dial in contrast to my other black reverse el-glo dials (carrerra GT style) Fit a AEM AFR gauge in the place where the current stock dimmer switch is so it mirrors my AEM TRu Boost gauge on the other side. Pioneer P4100dvd double din h/unit to go in with reverse camera New leather gear lever gaiter, to be trimmed in the same leather that I get my seats retrimmed in. Apexi induction kit to replace the power induction kit on at present. hybrid stage 1 turbos from Mr Whiffen. respray horrid gold cam cover, fuse box cover and relay cover in black. K-sport 8 pot front brake kit (UK set to be sold soon ) Get a custom sport CAT fitted to the center DECAT pipe. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holden1989 Posted January 12, 2010 Share Posted January 12, 2010 I'm thinking on having the entire interior re-trimmed in black leather, including dash, seats and pillars and finishing it with orange stiching to match the paint. Similer to Rob then......... will be amusing when there are two candys with matching paint/stitching at the shows Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
