for now they will remain white and in a scabby state untill i find somewhere local to get them shot blasted so i can work my magic on them.
they will be a a sweet ass balc/blue/purple with gold, green, red, yellow, silver fleck, the same colour my old galant was as thats the colour of the body kit will be once i get it back on the car. and then finished with a red lip

finally got the car PC back in along with all the woofers, tweeters and sub(s). just got hold of a xp disk as firing up the pc again with new bigger HD i got disk boot error, i was expecting this to be fair as we copied one HD to the new one. hopefully i can get things sorted soon and it will be good and ready... jsut in time to take the car back off the road again! *sigh*
In the dark i watch and wait......
not much has happened in the way of updates. just errorcode reading and fixing. swapped the brembos back to stock ones till i can get new disks and a recon kit for the brembos. not having much joy there

its been a bit of a hectic time hence the delay in updating.
iv been a tad busy in getting the old gal ready for the shows and track.
over the weekend i went to japfest and for the first time ever, for both me and the car, we went out on the track
she did me very proud and im glad to report no crashing was had! it has shown me that i really must get that gearbox changed and uprate my brakes (took the brembos off as they are shot) and get some coilovers on there ASAP!
but here is some pictures from the day.

But todays antics was spent out in the pi$$ing rain replacing the rear of the exhaust system. (i sort of blew the old system up while on track)
then all hell broke loose when the welding wire ran out! ops:
its done, on the car. blowing a little but that can be sorted later as can the slight tweaking of one of the cans.
I will get to putting pics and vid up in due course. but right now meh im knackered
im just saving now for the suspension and brake upgrade. at japfest i had a nice chat with the lot from BC racing and they can fix me up a set of coilovers for the car for a nice tidy sum of not to much bank braking figures. been on the blower to Godspeed brakes and had the guy in stitches and hes gonna sort me a set of grooved disks all round and Kevlar pads all round and refurb my front brembos (didnt want the rears doing as they are ok) for a good price.
once this is done its back to the saving pot for the TD04 turbo upgrade! heeeeheeeeheeee!!!
my biggest problem on that task will be finding a 7202 ECU (really should check mine to see if its a 201 or 202....)
the 202's can be re-mapped where as the 201's cant, and being a PFL (pre facelift) car there is a high chance it is a 201 EUC i have. but there is a small chance its a 202 due to the fact its the super and was the last of the PFL and iv been told that some of the last of the runs on the PFL had a 202 in place....
hell its not like its gonna take me more then 5 minuets to find out as its pull a bit of plastic out the way. but its one of them yeah i will do it in a mo and never do it! lol
