_Monkey 0 Posted March 7, 2006 Well done mate, :thumbleft: Good to meet you, even if it was only briefly at the end! Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted March 7, 2006 Cheers. You too. Will be interested to have a proper look at your Turbo conversion at some point. You going to Stealth in April? Jay Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
biggerbigben 0 Posted March 7, 2006 Jay, You already know what I think about the car... I love the dustbin lid wheels.. no no I meant the vette rims... no seriously, a truly stunning car. I know how much hard work has gone into this car over the last few years and I'm glad you're getting such good feedback - you deserve it! I'm sorry I missed the show at the weekend, I wanted to go but you know I have lots to do. Anyway.. well done! Btw a turbo conversion would just be the icing on the cake imo ! :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

24V Renshaw 0 Posted March 7, 2006 Cheers Ben. Right back at you mate. ;) No Turbo conversions until I have more money :) 16v - Cheers. If you want to have a proper look at it, come along to the Stealth Rolling Road day. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shaggy 0 Posted March 7, 2006 absolutely stunning car! One of my all time favorites! cant wait to have a proper nose at the rolling road day in april. Just wish i had the patients to do such an example. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Shaggy 0 Posted March 8, 2006 Cheers Mike. Yours is looking better by the day. Will you have your Porker rims on at Stealth? Jay Not sure yet mate! i am going to lower it even more when i get the rims on, which may cause problems when getting onto the rollers, then again i can always raise it a little the day before, not sure yet.... :) dont really wanna drive all the way up there only to find out its too low.

Nick 0 Posted March 10, 2006 Jay, your car looked super shiney in the 'Ultimate.jpg' on the previous page, i was just wondering what you used wax wise, did you use an electric buffer thing too, or all by hand? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
24V Renshaw 0 Posted March 10, 2006 All by hand mate, I don't like electric polishers. I used a bit of a mixture really. Meguairs the day before the show, then on the day I used some new stuff I tried called Poorboys. Very impressed with the carnubara wax they do and its relatively cheap too.

PhatVR6 0 Posted March 12, 2006 Jay, don't flame me for this, I'm not being critical and slagging the car of fin any way, but I'm going to stick my neck out (not that it's ever IN !) and say I don't like the vette wheels anymore. Yeah, I know it's a daily driver and that polished rims and splits are high maintenance but I really do think they are cheapening the over all look of the car. Go on, find something even more special to stun us all at the shows this year, the car really deserves some flash wheels (or at least some wider tyres!) They are the only things I'd change, everything else is perfection. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
logicaltuning 0 Posted March 12, 2006 and sell the vette rims and adapters to me :D Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trig 0 Posted March 12, 2006 I have to agree with everything Phat just said. Although I haven't seen the rims in the flesh yet so can't really comment. :) Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shaggy 0 Posted March 12, 2006 those rims IMO make this car so unique that to change them may ruin whats already such an amazing car... unless that is you can get hold of some even nicer rims that wont require hours of cleaning everytime you wash the car, either that or just get some show rims... :) then again that would sort of draw the line through the "daily driver" type theme.

_leon_ 0 Posted March 12, 2006 Personally I love those wheels. Well done for finding them. Its such a personal thing though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
_Monkey 0 Posted March 13, 2006 I think you should keep the vettes, but get a set of slightly more sensible wheels for track use!! :twisted: Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
