Steve W Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Dunno, but it looks very much like the Dragon Motorsports Soop That's the only one i've seen with Gold car / Gold Antera 309's [Later to be called Nemisis i believe.... ........the "Never-Runs-at-a-Drag-Strip" car ! ] ? ? ? ? ?

stevenb Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Supragold describes his car as this colour....perhaps you could PM him.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supragold Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 This is my mates motor. Formally Nemesis car. "never runs the drag" because nemesis f'd it over. (useless twats) running 3 bar boost and putting out less than standard bhp. Amazing it never popped. Its now a GBH motor like mine. He's just waiting on fatter fuel lines and two more fuel pumps to be fitted externally from the tank plus more remapping at Abbey. Hoping for serious bhp. I think he's going for the big 1000. Anyway as for the colour I'll try and find out for you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supRo Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Hey Abs, Pop into Autopaint and you can flip through their colour samples. By the way, I never got that electrical problem back! Ro Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absz Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 well i think i have found the colour, just need get a sample. was going to paint the car black but everyone at the bodyshop and all my work mates are saying that black will kill the curves of the car so playing with gold now.

supragold Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 That is a nice colour but its not the same, mind you do you really want it the same? I like that. My mates is too gold that has more of a tint to it. Your car looks like its going to be awesome when its done. Might need wider wheels though mate.

absz Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 hey supragold the wheels fitted at mo are 17" thought that was wide enough, Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supragold Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 hey supragold the wheels fitted at mo are 17" thought that was wide enough, Seriously?? Your car is wide as fook. You need to fill them arches. Have you got any other pics of your little project? You'll have to post some when its painted. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

supragold Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 17" is the height, not the widith I recon your going to have to go 19" x 12J on the back of that. 20" would look better but at that power do you really want to have 20"s ? As for the front maybe 10J's Tyres wont be cheap. 315 x 30 x 19s. ouch Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 You can go 17/18/19 whatever, depending on who builds wide wheels, its not determined on the height how wide they are. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supragold Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Thats what YOU said isnt it? oh I get ya. Sorry, my mate with the gold sup's gona hit the 1000 mark. Got confused. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absz Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 17" is the height, not the widith the car is sitting on 17's were it stands, but looking at the pics its seems to be floating of the ground:clap: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supragold Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 You can go 17/18/19 whatever, depending on who builds wide wheels, its not determined on the height how wide they are. yeah but look how big his arches are now. 17"s would look dwarfed in them.

Bobbeh Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Yeah, I didnt mean yours Glen isnt it? His car has always been at the top speed events but hes never run it... so people think hes all show and no go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bobbeh Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 yeah but look how big his arches are now. 17"s would look dwarfed in them. Yeah, he'll be looking at at least 18's I think Maybe 12-13 inches wide. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supragold Posted October 15, 2005 Share Posted October 15, 2005 Yeah, I didnt mean yours Glen isnt it? His car has always been at the top speed events but hes never run it... so people think hes all show and no go. I know what you mean. He got really f'd over by nemesis. They are - sorry were - clueless. He was running over 3 bar and had less bhp than stock. He got GBH and Abbey on the case and its now over 700bhp with no extra parts. Figure that. I just had a phone call to say his turbo's just gone bang. No surprise after being so badly tuned. He has run it a few times but was so disappointed he wanted to get everything sorted before really giving it some. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
absz Posted October 15, 2005 Author Share Posted October 15, 2005 i do have a set of 18x10 and 18x13 rears but its the wrong offset, the wheels still sit too far in. fitting spacers as temp measure for a few months till i get the right wheels.
