As for updates, there will be some more pics over the weekend/next week. Plans for Sunday are:

Change over seats
Oil change
Tranny oil change

Engine degrease
Polish headlights
Swap ARC intake and Box to stock
Swap exhaust

And I think that will about do me for blue slip....

After blue slip the list is:

Personalised plates
Stereo
re-spray
Clock and volt guage swap over
Re-trim roof in black suede
Enjoy the car before my wife kills it

Re-trim roof in black suede

I have my old set of P plates to go with it if you need....

[Bennoz]

[rock_it]

Suede.. Not shag pile...

Same as what I did to the roof/seats/all plastic parts in the Evo ... I think it will look hawt...

What was the paint damage like?

Pretty bad.. Scratches can't be seen in photos but it is every panel. Bonnet is the worse.. but it will get a full spray one day..

These are not the EL ones. There is a guy on ebay that does them. I have bought them for different cars in the past. He does custom work. I had him do blue flames on my Hilux.

So got through a little bit today..

Professor Aza polished the headlights on both cars:

Before:


After:


Full car:




Also cleaned a bit under the hood with a lot of degreaser..


So, the ARC box and intake is in my car. Did an oil change, tranny oil and filter change, replaced rear tail lamp that was cracked & removed the faded sticker of a tyre shop on the back window.

Still want to replace radiator hoses and a full radiator flush.

So new seats for the Mrs car:

The pics of the head lights sow up the imperfections on the inside bad .
The engine bay came out well after a bit of a clean up.

[rock_it]

Yeah and a bit of water from the rain..

But I think mostly the flash on the camera killed it.. will look better when I take her on the streets for some propper shots..

Thanx.. Today is blueslip and rego day..

Just had to grind down the roof rust and spray a bit of primer.. A rough job but good enough to pass..

Lets hope no hiccups at the RTA and we are good to go..

[rock_it]

Car is now registered.. I had to grind down the roof rust a little and patch it to keep the blueslip guy happy.. So that was done, car checked and passed.. I was told the coilovers are borderline to need engineer certificate..

Anyway here are the updated pics so far, and a good shot of the polished headlight..

You have to buy even a stock plate in NSW. The car had no plates so unavoidable.. I just get to xhose this way..

And primer wont be there for long champ. It is next on the hit list..

[Technikhaus]

I wish we could get plates like that here
