    Since replacing alot of things on the car decided to see what economy I was getting, 11.3l/100km mixed highway/town. This is really good considering i used to get almost 12l/100km for all highway driving!

    Anyway painted the rear brakes, have done the fronts to but there not on the car.



    Also debadged the rear and got myself a genuine VN SS spoiler

    Theres a thread in the how-to section that should help you.

    They made a huge difference on trackday, i didn't feel them fade all day i 100% recomend doing it. Also remember i got the 1inch mc aswell.

    Oh and before you get the kit painted pro, why not try a clear coat over the top? At least keep ya happy for a while?

    Still havent been bothered to get internet, heres some of what ive done/doing.

    Full lines have been redone, or just put on since there was no breather hoses and tank painted.



    And a non painted grill. My airgun got broken and i still dont have new one.



    Next things going to be either new tires, rebuild my seconded engine, or reapaint all black parts on the car. What ever gets done first .
