The laugh of a guilty man

Mate, what's been happening here? Not seen much since that dick

Car has been in storage basically in since march sitting on stands.
Will start working on the car again shortly, got distracted with another car i bought and started building.
So with the FTO i just need to fit up the Y-Pipe and put all fluids back in and it will be running again.
So i sold that splitter in earlier pictures, found a local company that will make one for the fto.
Will get that once front bumper is painted.
Still need to put my VSXX Back to together lol

Nice man. At least it's nothing major to get it all going. Should make it to bonfire next year

Any updates on this?

Hey yeah actually i have been working on the car.
So the car is in now running condition again.
Car will be going to the panel beater shortly to get the front bumper,roof wing painted and just some of the body touched up.
Wheels are also going to a builder to finish them i CBF, rather just pay.

Unsure what to do with the car at this stage, as it is unregistered.
Considering just making it clean AF and garaging it.
thoughts?

Sounds like a depreciating asset

With the current state FTOs are I don't think this is the case, they will only get rarer and a few people will always want nice ones.

Selling it after this much effort is a bad idea, may as well just sit on it if you don't have plans.

Yeah, but 'nice' is like that stock facelift in QLD with 130k on the clock.

Most of the rest of them aren't worth moving on. May as well keep it and drive it. And take pictures so I can see how you fit a 10.5

Everyone just wants a sh*t one to “do up” because it “goes hard” then they write it off and it’s the same process

OK so bit of an update, car is booked in to go to the panel beater tomorrow.
. Kaze roof spoiler will be painted and fitted
. Fix clear on carbon wing
. Front bumper resprayed
. Parts of body touched up

After this is done unsure what to do with the car.
Might go through and begin to restore areas of the car.

I will be moving soon so the car will be garaged.

Keen to see it with the roof spoiler, jealous

I managed to source another rare goodie. will post pictures when i get it back from panel beater

OK so i got the car back from the panel beater.
also fitted some wheels















Took some snaps of the recent wheels i got for the xr. they in pretty rough condition though




Only things left to do on the fto is to have the factory fog lights and indicators wired up and have exhaust flange fixed

Nice man. Are those the 18x9.5 +20?

Looks like they did a decent job fitting it all up!

Wheels on the FTO are 17x9 +0

Wheels on the XR6 ate 18X11 +9

Also another goodie i picked up

They look bigger than I thought haha. That's a lot of poke!

thicc, jealous of the cup holders, I need to get some for the vents I think...

yeah the FTO definitely lacks cup holders. I know some of the silvia guys buy something that goes on the side near the gear shifter
