yeh i agree, i would have preferred the 60's shape. but this was just to cheap to pass up haha what about a woodys beetle?

time to start thinking about paint options/schemes will be doing my wheels and tyres like this with red leather interior also just need to think of the body colour. thinking along the lines of these colours any ideas or opinions?

yeh yours is really nice! i need to narrow mine quite abit if i want it to lay frame

front panel/spare wheel well done today, thanks to nick (Mr Currie) did a sweet job. tackling the rest of it tomorrow!

I'm planning on doing a airshock setup in the front of the beetle and modified front beam with the beam im planning to shorten it as much as possible and modify the mounting points for the shocks like this and the airshock setup im planning on is just a monroe airshock to achieve this

discussion thread-//oldschool.co.nz/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=18&t=34252 it's been ages since iv'e been on this forum, and i miss it haha. been working on silly nissan drift cars. but getting back into the oldschool goodness. scored a cheap 1969 vw beetle. guttless 1200, but meh its fun. got it with a wof&rego. must've been dodgy because now iv'e started pulling it apart ive found alot of rust. picked up some rust free doors and bonnet. will update when progress in made on the rust

got some wheels

lol cheater5, red it is.. my mate who is wiring it up for me is familar with megasquirts i guess, and also cost, link g3's etc are right up there. more than the engine its self.

lol love it how you say "when you decide to paint to boso" haha im planing to keep the car, as much as i love boso cars wouldnt want to drive round looking like a clown everyday. black is way sexy though. isnt out there as much

this thread is almost getting as bad as toyspeed, so much bitch'n. car looks rad btw. like your mum said, don't say anything if you havn't got anything good to say.

anyways any ideas or advice you guys have for me doing this conversion, also will be riping my engine out soon so wondering what colour you guys think i should paint my car, i was thinking either straight red or black dont want to go crazy over the top boso style or anything

mate yours is poo on a stick and you know it. g series? = ew jz series = yum

small update brought myself a 1jzgte non vvti, twin turbo, hopefully picking it up soon so will get pics up then plan is to: -replace cambelts and all other belts -single turbo manifold -large t3 turbo non wastegated, unsure what exactly to go with -external wastegate -v mount intercooler? or front mounted? -larger fuel pump? -megasquirt ecu -full exhaust custom from back of turbo -larger injectors maybe 2jzgte if they are much bigger? wanting 230-250kw atw but we will see what happens when the time comes and what wages allow me to do haha
