man those rims are looking shit hot on your ride mate. i have never really been a fan of chrome, but damm it goes well with your colour. which it a close match to mine. how do you feel about sending those rims down to SA? hahaha.

are you spraying it the same colour? a little lighter?

i found out that my paint job had two tones of pearl in it, which sent the price through the roof. hope its not gonna be too $$$ for ya.

good luck m8.

I'm in Footscray, dude.

Not really ready for a cruise just yet; the sound of the exhaust pissing out my warped manifold is giving me the shits fucken hard...

Prolly gonna get a complete exhaust system made in the next two or three weeks; just gotta get my oil feed to the turbo changed to a hose first.

But yeah, I'll be down for that soon... maybe we should hook something up for New Year's...?

why are you changing your oil feed line to a hose?
is there something wrong with the standard oil line fitting?

I wanted to do it anyway since the solid line makes removing and installing the turbs a pain in the arse, but it also allows the exhaust guys to position the turbs just where I want it.

Are you going to be getting another one Tubz?
If you do, you should try sitting in the car to drive it, I think you'll find it a little easier!
