    I'm having problems uploading photos from my laptop. 'Unable to display webpage' screen comes up but everything else is working.

     

    This was the same problem i was having but didnt explain it very well.Managed to sort it though by reducing the resolution of pictures taken on the phone settings to 2 MP.My phone is an Experia Ray.Pictures need to be below 1 MB

    Well,after owning my vr for over 10 yrs now,being a CCGB member for most of that time & a forum member 4 yrs thought it time to create a members build thread! Been looking at some others & impressed at the level of commitment & work that has gone in to so many cars on here.Havnt got to many events or shows until the last year or two ,when ive got to know a few guys from the south & south west & they are a pretty decent bunch.

    Some of you will know my car as it was voted 1st at National Day show & shine this year & runner up in 2011.

    I have already carried out a considerable amount of work to car

    My car: well its its a black 94 vr6 LA9v paint code.The 17inBBS rx11's were bought new & fitted soon after i purchased car & i still love them.The car remained fairly unchanged until about 3-4 year ago when i decided the car needed a facelift & as i still enjoyed owning it as much as ever decided it would be worth the expense & work.It had some paint work carried out & then i had to rectify a smokey engine.I removed it to allow a re-bore & full re-build .Since then other

    improvements have included KWv1's,Milltek exhaust & front & rear suspension over-haul.I have just fitted a BMC cda filter to compliment Schimmel cams which are on there way soon via the group buy.It was already giving 201bhp prior to filter so with cams & a re-map im looking forward to the results !

    Other future improvements may be a brake up-grade but pretty happy just enjoying it as it is right now & getting along to events & shows,would like to get to some shows up north some time.Ok,a few pics & will keep you updated on cams arrival & fitment.

    Daren.

    In my opinion John is justified in asking price due to the extreme high standard of mods carried out,its a unique car & a credit to Johns skills & ability.The problem with owning that car is that everyone will know it as 'John Mitchells car'

    Had a nice day at Combe,despite wet weather the turnout was really good.Some really nice cars in show n shine & track cars.Nice to catch up with the guys & check out Matts awesome 4wd turbo.Weather improved pm & Ben & i had an interesting chat with a guy trying to sell us an AudiA8 w12 for 9 grand! Incredible car for the money.Took a few pics -cant seem to upload them right now

    When you say 'uprated bits' do you mean gaskets & head bolts etc,if so oem would be fine or Victor Reinz from GSF.If its using lots of oil be sure to check cylinder bores for wear.You wouldnt want to do all that work on head & still have oil burning probs.Are you still ok for Castle Combe ?

    Is there anything special about car carpet? Could I replace it with some carefully cut piece from carpetright?

     

    Could give you some interesting options on colour & patterns though!
