Badass touring!

Not sure how I go about it, but any chance I could please get this thread moved to the 'project forum'

Thanks.

Next phase of the 'build' arrived the other day. Still need to get a manifold cut and welded to the throttle plate.

Am also planning on getting some head work done with a 284 cam or something along those lines. Need to speak the builder to work out the build properly still, but should be some fun when complete.

Cheers man, yep loving it. A lot better than the grip royal I had in there. More of a factory look to the interior and a lot comfier in the hands :)

It's weird how the wheel or shifter feel totally changes the driving experience isn't it? I usually drive with my driving gloves on and I drove my car a few miles without them tonight and it didn't feel right.

I love the way your 318 looks.

[bmwandhonda]

Thanks guys :) I was a little Suss on how they would look when I ordered them, but stoked about the choice. Super happy with the overall look :) now time to try and get some power under the hood, had it on the dyno at the show and as rather disappointed... Has motivated me to aim for a bit more.

Anyway, this pic just emerged from the drive to the show :) my favorite so far.

This is awesome. The Compomotives are so perfect.

Looks so good on those wheels, suits it beyond perfection. Glad you took off the stripes also. Well done man.

[bmwandhonda]

New wheels are the shit, maybee a little less of the stripes. But that's your thing so it's awesome. Really cool wagon.

Thanks mate, yep I actually removed the stripes last night. Got a bit over them. The writing on the wheels combined with the stripes was a bit much.

Well done Sir! The new wheels are pretty sweet.

How do you like the new steering wheel?

sweet ass car man... i wish the US had these... alot of what you are doing has inspired my for my car. keep on truckin' man. awesome awesome job!

Thanks mate :)

Australia never got these either. I just got lucky and found one that had been imported already.

Wow! That's a lot of work! Keep at it! Your choice of wheels is impeccable.
The M stripes look sweet! Are they paint or some sort of vinyl? Care to share where you picked up the stripes if they're vinyl?

Cheers. The stripes are actually just three stripes of electrical tape, 3M electrical tape to be exact haha three seperate colors lol looks not so good up close. I actually took the stripes off tonight, left a big line of residue which i now need to remove :/
