Ok so ive had my hands FULL over the last month with the KE25

The engine is fully rebuilt and while the engine was out i painted the bay.. while i did that i thought may aswell paint the rest of the car.. while i did that i thought i may aswell get new roof lining and a dash pad while the windscreen was out.. basically a full Bare metal respray!!! I'm happy with how the taillight surrounds and the grill turned out :)

Not to mention how straight we got the car, although it was a good base!

Sent the master cylinder off to get re sleeved, auto electrician comes monday and then ill be sailing down the road to give her a full tank of premium :)

 

 

The paint completely came off with 1 pass of paint stripper!! Must have been the Original paint job.

14 x 8 rear +10- lines up perfectly with the guard as you look down it.

14 x 7 front +10

4 x 110 SSR Reverse Mesh

Falken 195/45/14 tyres

Handles so well now!

Need to address the front + camber though :/ looks pretty silly at the moment.

Cool, thanks for the details!

Yeah they were apparently the buyer was stuffing him around.. so i just went and grabbed them yesterday. I'm thinking of just doing chopped springs in it, Should gain a bit of camber with a 2-3 inch drop in the front i don't want anything ridiculous as this is my daily.
