Went down to visit my car today @ Racepace and things are looking quite good.

Few other SAU members down there too so my little secret is out as the car is basically finished for the most part after 18months and a lot of weekends

It was orange, but it just didnt fit with the engine bay respray ;)

I should have done that first, and THEN the covers etc, lesson learnt in colour coding there!

Ye, last stage really Al. Andrew is going to do the wiring during the week on it, then run the motor in and go clear the EPA i've had on the car for 18months now and i can register the car, and that should be done within a month pending appointment avaliability and shit.

Exterior is the same, still pretty rough and still that 1/4 panel ding lol.

Ill respray all of that at a later date as i have a lot of things i wanna do and change (wheels and so on).

I must say this was the first time I had officially seen a car with Ash's name against it. The orange definately didnt go but this colour looks ace.

Well done on keeping the light at the end of the tunnel and look forward to seeing the finished project. ;)

    • Oh wow, it's easy to forget how cheap these can be. Probably the cheapest way to travel. Though people in cars here tend to be morons and I would not feel very safe. Were scooters ever big in Australia? It used to be the thing growing up in Europe ~20 years ago. 50/70/125ccm Peugeot or Yamaha and some others. Utterly obnoxious Polini race exhausts. Kick stands that slant as much as possible. So loud. So much noise for really not moving very fast at all. But it felt cool at the time. Not sure where I'm going with this, but there is an aftermarket for mopeds! Though I'd have pictured you more for a Goldwing kind of guy after growing out of the Harley.
    • You need to know I am sorry for this.  
    • As the MX5 isn't apparently "manly" enough, and I need something for runs to the local shops, and also take to my part time job at the salon, basically I can keep the MX5 away from car parks and stuff......like "flying lockers", I was wondering what I could buy to fix this issue LOL, I pick up a new Yamaha 125 Delight this arvo from Trooper Lu, basically a R1 that you can fit a slab of beer on between your feet, also, it was $29400 cheaper than a R1, so actually it's 2 x better than a R1    
    • Nah. H2S. H2S is "rotten egg gas", which is what is associated with no cat. SO2 is equally nasty, and if you've ever smelt it you'll know all about it. More of a choking, acid in the back of the throat sort of thing. But you can only smell it in a narrow range up to about 1ppm. Above that, it irritates your mucous membranes, but you don't smell it.
    • Kicked the 34 in the guts, she won’t be seeing the road till I get the 31 mobile again.  wont be long and she’s a bit of a garage princess anyway haha
