This is the other visual style of 4age I like where its polished up. Will you go clear

cam covers? Aluminium coloured pulleys :hmm: Have a neutral colour theme going on?

Looks good keep it up!

Pretty much bang on the head, Ben. I was going off of Paul's 4age for inspiration, but I had my own ideas after I started cleaning it up. I'm leaning towards clear cam gear covers, but am uncertain at the moment. Unfortunately this one didn't come with any cam gear covers, so it's gonna cost some money either way.

 

Glad you like :D

I got sick of looking for Spirit seats and don't want to pay to get them reupholstered. So I found these; R32 GTR Leather Skyline seats. Got them for $150, bargain! Not going to fit them till after rego though. Can't wait to fit them, so comfortable!

 

Also on the way to picking them up from Woop Woop, seen so many overrated cars! I kinda wish I went to that Charity Cruise that's going on.

 

Cheers, Jake.

Took it in today for a bit of a check before going for the Roadworthy. She only needs a few things! Needs a new clutch something chronic! New panhard bar bushes, new pedal rubbers and new front sway bar stabilizer bushes. Also need to replace drivers seat belt as it is frayed. I think that's a good effort for a car that has been through 320,000kms and has been paddock bashed at some point in her life.

 

When I originally picked her up Evan and I took her to the car wash to get rid of most of the dirt from when she was in the paddock. I thought I got most of it. I got under her properly today, I reckon I did like 10kgs of weight reduction mods, IE; removed 10kgs of mud!

 

Soon to be registered! Yeah boy!

 

Here is a picture of dirt. lol.

Picked up some RWD extractors for the 4AGE tonight. VERY happy with price, especially for BRAND NEW!

 

Also on a more important note, RWC booked for Monday. Most likely road "legal" by weeks end.

 

After rego, immediate plans are to LOWER the crap out of it and fit my MA61's with 195/45/14's. Undecided on plans/time frame for the 4AGE conversion. I'm tempted to do a high compression 4AGE for shits and giggles.

 

Cheers, Jake.

Received my RWC today!!!! All the rust was cleaned up in the rear and has been sprayed, looks mad, makes me want to respray the rest of the car. Although my reverse lights don't work. They were working last week, now they aren't? Going to book rego tomorrow.

She died on the way home today. Charge light came on for like 15 mins. Then 10mins from home she stalled at a slip lane, had to push it to a servo. After that had one of my old man's workers come to me with jumper cable as EVERY person I know in this world was busy. I noticed that a plug on the back of the alternator was loose while I was waiting, so I crammed it in so it won't move. Problem is gone, but I'm after a new alternator to be safe.

 

On a more exciting note, rego inspection is booked for 2nd of November! Can't wait!!

 

Cheers, Jake.
