    so i should do some form of update..

    hmmm lets see what has happened




    So it was painted....


    [​IMG]



    then i put bits on during a thunder storm


    [​IMG]


    it was hit by lighting thus giving it life... which it then went around eating people


    [​IMG]


    but we put a muzzle on it so all good now


    [​IMG]


    Big thanks to ross for spending a few L of blood putting it back together and to chris who dropped off some bonnet brackets then spent 4 hours on it.... then the next day picked up some test pipes.... then spent 4 hours on it and forgot the test pipes

    actually no, different green... it was custom green but we opted with a lighter green with a similar pearl... form 1 angle looks the same, other angle you can see the difference...

    Its now stock VE green

    (think its that one)

    since i havent done the engine bay and im sure ill get bits redone or crashes etc its just so much easier with an off the shelf colour.

    so... i had an arguement with this wanker of a manifold gasket

    [​IMG]

    Pretty much did the job twice... first tried with engine in, got to all the bolts but thought we can just tighten them (new gasket, never driven over 40km/h or hit boost so shouldnt be that bad....

    nupe, didnt work :/

    so at 7pm Saturday night in a rage i ripped the engine out in under 2 hours.

    [​IMG]

    Little bit easier to get to the bolts now

    [​IMG]

    The wanker

    [​IMG]

    then all Ross's old pro-suede went in to complete the interior

    [​IMG]



    Then went into work to feed my fish and change the water..

    ohhhh... ohhhh ... oohhhh just ohhhhhh... the memories cruzing up the fwy, the exhaust so loud like you have no idea + the echo of the city... ohhh man i jizzed something hard.

    Yet another inspirational looking Z. Makes me sit here all forlorn recounting how much work I have to do in order to make a Z look as good as this!
