If you want MkI diecasts etc, come see me at Affordable Models & Toys, Monday 10am-4pm.

Already been there mate and got one, its the rally one in my project thread.

Im running the same size cooler with silicon 90deg joiners cut down to clear the inner front wings. In between them ive got a civic alloy 3 core radiator, been told they go alright but time will tell i guess. As for plans probably just a quick street car, but tempted to do a bit of track work, at thisstagrthough id behappy just to see it going :lol: Im gonna run deep dish 17" mags just cant find exactly what i want but something in this style but polished lip, painted spokes like the first pic.

Cheers for the encouragement fellas, helps the enthausiasm :) Things starting to progress quite well now, getting sick of sanding though :lol: Going to keep it orange with black interior (except blue seats) and thinking black engine bay, may be. Brushed on underseal and stone guard' the boot, comes in spray cans from super cheap and seems suprisingly quite good. Think of got the engine sorted too, got the evo injectors fitted and going for a low mount t3 ball bearing turbo on s/s manifold if allgoes to plan :!:

First engine will be standard internals, think its a nz new ca18det as it has the 4 port head which is a bonus. Aiming for 300hp outathatone if it holds together :lol: Got another one in my garage as well i might build into something descent once its all going. The t3 i got is off a R34 neo RB25DET,most new nissans come with b/b turbos, S15s, skylines, even gtir pulsars i think. Got stainless bottom mount manifold for it as well, at least it wont crack! Will post pics once everything turns up.
