A few bits shook themselves loose but nothing serious. Josh (SwissHeavy) lost a wing mirror, but it was his fault because he doesn't live around there. That's the opinion of the person who hit his car at least 
..Hah... That's typical eh!. It's scary when you look into the charges etc. track closure per hr + railings + pick up etc.. It's thousands :/ ( it would as jason bought my skirts rear bumper and lights 
)... 
#2...was it from Yorkshire. Didn't realise was for sale.
.. 110%! I didn't know that they had came from your old car.. Haha yeah it was only Mentioned in passing the car was for sale and I jumped on it.. It looks ace with them! 
.. Usually I would say get her told lol.. but your mrs is brand new so fair play buddy. I'm really tempted to just insure mine and come Bit of a trek and I don't fancy taking my car to Grimsby college every day if I'm down there.... It lasted 250miles home from Barnsley and decided to sheer the pipe supplying the clutch off when I got into my street. I then blew some boost pipes off here and there when bedding the tires in... so they were tightened u properly. It was being mechanically controlled (boost wise) by the wastegate instead of on the electronic boost control for safety reasons. Those being that teething problems from before I owned it hadn't been properly ironed out. Parts had been changed and the map not altered to suit. Don't get me wrong it was still safe running as it was at 1.4-1.5bar and was very quick. Sorted! So I then called up Simon at YVS and told him my plans and arranged to travel to him on the Monday (Selby area). The plan was to get an oil and filter change, full car check over and get him to fit the CRW CV joints I had ordered from the states. This also meant I could take a break from the 400 mile drive to Fensport.- well I mean the entire passenger side was covered in parts and the "frunk" too... as you can see my clothes went there

.."hanging like a washing"
(which took most of Tuesday ill add.. and my fault) it was now MAP TIME!.
. which he was more than happy to do. . and in his experienced opinion the car was producing very high 500 low 600 hp... simply as it kept it easy to drive on the road with traffic etc. Plus I wanted to see how it got on before I threw anymore money at it.. although Adrian did say next time I wanted it mapped he will have to book the airfield nearby as its far too much for the road. Given he knows I don't intend to keep the car as it was then (power wise) this would be a great idea... it was time to pay my bill and go home. Not without a few goodies though. I picked up a TRD Gearknob to replace my Chrome Razo ball one that my Dad has been eyeing up for his Skyline..(ill get a picture of it but its perfect.. it may sound silly but its so much better for changing with).. £150 of fuel... 1000's of dead flies... one very embarrassed 458 owner and running out of Revs on the A1(M) I made it home...
...
(wiring, solenoids, lines and heater etc) from my best mate Marc.
.. just in time for a sticker on the back to break it up .. the plans for this car are massive but im taking it one step at a time.. .. some with the real BOSS of the garage.....
.. I share my name with my Dad.. as you can see DB Mr2 wrote:Stunning well sorted mr2 congrats! Also loving the R32.
Such a shame they don't make cars like this anymore!
.. this winter will be when it will get a lot sorted I reckon if I can get the money together... cars these days are just not half as good or as fun as 90's Jap
She be crazy 
. Track it and have a blast.. And then get your old car back or build another... . It's a victim of it's own styling really, as you were always worried about damaging that paint etc and the wheel/tyre combo was less than ideal for ultimate handling. If I were to do it again it would be a very different animal, with performance and handling as the sole focus and aesthetics based purely around function. Once that's sorted I'd make it look as good as possible but never at the expense of the business side of things. I think iecku has it pretty much spot on what I'd choose to do. Like when you finish games such as Gran Turismo and have money to burn, so make mental cars for fun The steering is so quick and sensitive it's crazy. I'm not done any miles in it really other than the drive back, so I've yet to scope it all out and see what I've got. The brakes are awful in comparison to my old Carbotech setup, although i suspect they need bleeding and sorting. The alignment is way out too, as the previous owner fitted a wide track kit to it and obviously never got around to getting it dialed in before selling. Another easy fix though and one which should improve the handling no end. I'm still trying to work out what everything in the engine bay does and I've yet to find the dipstick
