Argh havin issues finding accomodation near southbank atm damnit

Yeah Panda that was me that you met at Autosalon with the white ET (JETET). Yeah it was pretty embarrassing having the coolant spurt out of the bonnet vents in the middle of the show. Everyone thought it was some effect. The problem was that the radiator cap lost its pressure and let go, $10 later it was all fixed. I was revving the car up and sitting it at 2000RPM to keep the voltage in the battery as i had 2kw running in the stereo and was demo'ing it for some people.

The car (JETET) was built by me and any work I didnt do my mechanic did, over a 4 year period it went from stock to the way I sold it.

These days im still contimplating on buying another ET and doing another full project car for both show and FWD dyno comps. I change my mind from day to day but who knows.

I have some more pics of it if anyone wants to host it. Just let me know and i will e-mail them

I sold JETET after it was in Hot4's to Sam and he has owned it ever since.

Adam,
Is this the same car as wassup393 Sam? So you built it and sold it to Sam, is that about right? Small N12 world. It's since been stolen, I hope it makes its way back.

I know its been stolen, I was told the other day and I was pretty annoyed by it but what can you do.

Im still tossing up if I should buy another one and build one up again.
