MrLizard Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 i will also be using a heat gun but will explain later Quote
3FIDDYZ Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 removal of sound deadening and filling in the holes? Quote
MrLizard Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 sound deadening and holes were gone a long time ago, that was a b&q shopping basket, though i will be using the same heat gun, spent soooooo long taking that out, if i were to do it again i would use dry ice and a hammer, freeze it off instead of melt...

Hmmmm... i may have been thinking that you are polishing and sanding something... like the engine bay but i had a feeling your car was more for go than show... and your not doing the hood mod we discussed yesterday... Erm Wheels? Quote
Ian Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Definatley spraying the wheels Please do them Takata Green Quote
MrLizard Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 indeed sir, wheels it is, the spare set i will be refurbing myself, unsure what to do with my nismo's, it will be the rays that are getting the new coat Quote
sunset350z Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Stop ponsing around and tell us what you are doing Quote

Its a track car, it needs fluorescent wheels Indeed, going in the ktm orange route the decals on the car wont let me do them green, though any suggestions on the nismo's are welcome, assuming the rays turn out ok..

3FIDDYZ Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Suggestions LMGT4's? Nice work on the orange gonna look smart on the track! Quote
MrLizard Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 The Nismos are not lmgt4's i dont think I had 19" LMGT4's and swapped them for 18" version, look very similar but the spokes are slightly indented, like the rotas, proper forged monoblock etc etc.... Was thinking about doing them black and spraying the nismo logo orange if that makes sense. Quote

Was thinking about doing them black and spraying the nismo logo orange if that makes sense. These? http://www.z1auto.com/prodmore.asp?mode ... prodid=529 Yep was gonna suggest matt or gloss black.. What stickers you got on the car already? I take it these are just for road not track? Quote
MrLizard Posted August 21, 2009 Author Posted August 21, 2009 yes it is those exactly, the car is solely for track, the nismo's will be the dry set, considering they are slightly wider... r888's sat in garage in the correct sizes. Quote
Stew Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 Martin had bronze 18" Nismos and they looked great! I'm getting my Rays refurbed soon..... Azure is a difficult colour to get a 'different' wheel refurb on. Quote
rtbiscuit Posted August 21, 2009 Posted August 21, 2009 you've beaten me too it, i was thinking of bringi ng my refurb forward as i'm still on holiday. Quote
