I'm going to JapShow at SantaPod on Sunday which is the first show last year I took the car to after being built. Can't believe it's been a year since it was built! :)

You tempted to run dude? :D

 

Not likely, can't be arsed sitting in a queue for ages. It's not something that's really interested me to be honest but we'll see.

 

Go Saturday and run the car mate, loads of us going Saturday.

 

Can't make Saturday unfortunately mate. Are you running again? You not fancy coming on the Sunday as well?

Thanks guys. Keep the votes coming and since you get to vote for three It would be rude not to vote for JamieP's Datsun. ;)

 

Banzai car of the year: http://banzaimagazine.com/coty2013/?utm_content=buffere5eae&utm_source=buffer&utm_medium=twitter&utm_campaign=Buffer

 

 

Not much in the way of updates on the car recently I'm afraid, been very busy with work and the car is just sat downstairs teasing me to take it out every time I walk past it. :D

 

The one thing that stops me taking it out this time of year is the bloody wheels!! Seriously considering getting the centers done in a gunmetal colour. It would be so much easier to just have to re-polish the lips after winter rather than the hole dam wheel.

 

 

 

Why did you change the alternator...now I have to find something else to poke fun at. :D

 

:p

Lol thanks mate. Yeah I'm starting to go off polishing, Maybe time to make the Wangan stealth. :sly:

 

get some winter wheels on it dude so you can enjoy the odd blast in winter ;)

 

I've been looking around but can't find anything I like without spending too much money, plus I'm limited as I really need a decent width on the rear and then I'm back to trying to find a decent all round tyre in a wide width. R888 + winter = brown pants! :)

I always thought it looked best on those black BBS wheels...could go satin centres and gloss black rims... hmmmmmm!! :D

 

I know what you mean... need to clean the wheels properly even after a little drive this time of year. The salt is horrible at the moment, sets like concrete. I need some winter wheels too...

 

I have driven mine, for a couple of days last week... but I stuck on axle stands and jetwashed the underneath the other day... now it's not moving until the salt is gone. :D
