Test fit shows they sit perfectly but need some decent tyres on them.

Currently 245/45/18 thinking 265/35/18

These will be pulled apart to have the centers painted Ferrari grey charcoal.

So no really big updates with the car at the moment however the workshop has been receiving some much needed love.

New top and bottom bolts for the bonnet support bracket.

Everything that can be replaced with new will be on this car, if i can't get it new it will be restored as close to factory as possible.

Finished this gtr off the other day has a few nice bits and makes good power now.20170703_095211.thumb.jpg.7424da0c3b42063d07b0651c5fbdac92.jpg

As i get older the enjoyment of a quiet well handleing ride brings me enjoyment.

The whole car is going to be convered in a layer of dynamat on the roof and doors therr will also be a layer of dynaliner on top of that to keep the heat down.20170705_190227.thumb.jpg.5832c1352ee4df3ff92e13e8760e6966.jpg
