....and now, post monday-related disaster, a brake shoe welded to the brake disc.
i wondered why it was pulling to the left, and smelling really burny since friday night... made a lot of interesting smoke, though... |

Hmmm well the current TF SL/X Gemini I have for the road has a silver tipped exhaust and a missing factory radio. Great mods I say.
Will soon have VN/VL Commodore braking set up, custom exhaust, extractors, new suspension, mags, low prof tyresthat actually stick tot he road, unlike the current stock wheels and tyres. Although they are great for drfting. New interior and spray. When I have killed the current stock engine, Isuzu 1600 which is really only 3 years old, I shall fit a CA18DE and new gearbox. The other Gemini that ie being rebuilt, plans for it are to install racing gear on the interior with a SCAT V4 under the hood with Chev bell housing and g/b. Unfortunately that won't ever see the streets I dont think. |

I love it when an old thread just pops up out of nowhere....
two of our cars have recently had almost £2000 of mods each- in the form of LPG conversions. Other than that our cars tend to stay standard (Three of them are kit cars so the word 'standard' is used fairly loosly!) |

Mods to my road car? An MP3 stereo and 4 speakers. I figured that adding more "bling" won't change the way it takes me from A to B but it might severely hurt my bank account.

well mine's modified totally, at least 4 times in the time this thread's been in existance
my current car has been modified by a significant amount of female related junk (including 2 pairs of shoes), and a couple of female related moments relating in some speed bullet holes down the side. oh and the nurburgring sticker on the back of the car has increased performance by a good 20hp |
