Just a general tidy up, get it looking fresh, ready for summer again :)

 

I might have a go at doing the valve stem seals.

 

You'll need some removal pliers like these then or it's a right Royal Beehutch of a Martha Fokker.....

I strongly recommend you buy all four or don't bother

 

I don't think they go beyond 225's anyway so still looking.....

 

My fronts are actually pretty good. It's getting the car moving forwards or backwards on crunchy snow that's the problem. If it gets out of the garage.

The difference winter tyres can make i'd want all four as it could soon show up that your fronts aren't

that great.

I hope to be a busy chap,

 

Aerotop NA

 

- Manual conversion on my

- LSD installation

- UK Brake conversion

- Paint refresh

- New seals for aero-roof

- BC Coilovers

- MVP Lip/Active Spoiler set-up

- Rota GTR's to be finished in Anthracite/Bronz colour (Speedwells)

- Facelifts all round

- Decision will be made whether to 2JZ-GTE or Blown V8.

 

All the above would happen in an ideal world, so if I get halfway through this list, I will be ecstatic.

 

Quicksilver Facelift TT6 VVTi

 

- 6766 Torque Monster Kit

- GETRAG Re-introduction (currently no trans as this was the ex Sdistc Supra)

- Syvecs S6 + Toucan

- Hypertune Inlet

- Re-trimmed New Recaro Speeds with rails

- HKS Ti

- Greddy LM 4 row

- supporting mods as advised by tuner (TBC)

- Subframes and Arms powdercoated

- UK Spec Large Cased Auto LSD + Drive shafts and prop.

- Boombastic Rims (lightweight)

- UK Brakes all round, CW Pads and Floating Disc's

 

Hopefully all of the above works out, I have an expensive year with Mrs hitting 30, and buying a new house, so im sure some of this spec might take longer to materialise.

 

Will be selling the Black BPU Auto Facelift for something special in the new year, hopefully it all works out.
