That's cool that he's able to fix it for you. You have given me some ideas to apply to my car, since mine is in similar condition to yours. I would like to know more about the wet sanding procedure, like what grit you started with, if you used a random orbit sander, things like that. The finish of your car turned out really well. In your post you said you used 1200, is that what you started with?

[Podge]

I used 1200 grit thats it as i said i dont realy care about looks so i didn`t take that much time. all i did was go over it with 1200 wet dry then polish it and wax it. If you have a look on youtube or google you should be able to find some better info.

Thanks for the information on that. I need to do something about the peeling clear coat on my car, and this seems like the cheapest alternative. I just need to find somewhere to do all of the sanding as I do not have a garage, and it was 9 degrees Fahrenheit, -12 Celsius this morning.

Where did you buy the muffler?


looking good so far!!

[Podge]

Thanks mate. Got it off of ebay Australia. If you are chasing power i would not buy this muffler. I have an M10 in my e30 so i dont car about making power it is just to make the ass end look a bit nicer.

[Podge]

Picked these up today they are used but seem ok. I dont know what brand they are or anything lol but seeing i wont be using this car at a track at all anymore means i dont realy care as long as i loose the 4x4 ride hight that i have now!

[bades2001]

Good start so far, looks like a interesting project! Did the car come with a RWC when you bought it?

[Podge]

No rwc but did have regina utill the guy I bought it off of went in to Vic roads the next day and canceled the rego on me before I could transfer it to my name so now it has no rego aswell =(
