fai17 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Remember Jim....bring it down when you get it. I sure want a pax lap or even a shot in it OK. Link to comment
jimser Posted April 10, 2009 Author Share Posted April 10, 2009 That's a lot of car for the money, is this one going on a diet for Crail? yea robert i reckon the sound system alone should save a few kg's TBH Jim...the paint job looks fine to me and you don't see it much when you are piloting it anyways.500 bhp will be cool but 650 in a newage is better. Good luck Jim and i'll really looking forward to this year of racing you up Crail/Clyde Tunnel/York?up you back road! yip 650 in a newage is probably better but my 500 will owe me 7.5k,650 in a newage mmmm ££££££ Hope the paint "shimmers" with a nice effect Jimser, as I actually think it looks fantastic in the pictures. As for the price, you'd even get your money back if you had to break it, so definately a good buy. cheers craig i just think from past threads you would get more pleasure from something else but like i said it,s not my cup of tea the spec is great but the car just don,t look right to me i say classic all the way.but go for a well sorted 2 door weight is also a factor in what you are out to achieve no offence intended fair point on the weight issue mate but how much lighter is a v5/6 type r compared to a uk car?i reckon 20/30kgs max and considering im built for speed myself i reckon half of that is lost lol.can see where your coming from my first choice was a type r but looks is not the be all and end all for me and the same kind of £ would have got me a ligtly modded v3 or standard v4 which would need big bucks spent for similar power. Remember Jim....bring it down when you get it.I sure want a pax lap or even a shot in it OK. no chance of driving it but i'll let you change the gears Link to comment
uRaBu5 Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 Think it looks stunning! Hope you like it as much in the flesh – if not just cover it in clear matt film, will kill the glimmers. Will be some machine when completed, seams fantastic at the moment. All the best with this one! Derek Link to comment
dan_jess Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 500bhp in that will be wild! Will need to see pics of this glimmer effect. You could always wait for a 2 door shell to pop up at a decent price and swap all the bits over? If you really want the 2 door shell that is. Link to comment
scoobymark Posted April 10, 2009 Share Posted April 10, 2009 looking good jim at least someone else has taken the hit for all the mods the mods alone would cost more than the whole car Link to comment
