    Nice looking seats mate! The grey and blue really suits the car. Looks almost like they should be there.

    How much do you guys think this is worth in parts?
    I think I need to be talked out of it but I'm begining to lose the love for the car as I have now made it completely unreliable, it's going to fail its mot later this month and I can't afford to get the work done properly to return it to a decent standard.

    And me!

    I hope I don't need to bang both your heads together as you've both mentioned thinking these same 'evil' thoughts of selling up.

    It's something thats crossed my mind a few times recently. I quite fancy something nice that I won't keep trying to "improve" I'm hoping that I may change my mind after it's winter break, tempted to sorn it till spring and save on the tax.

    Everyone tonight has echoed matts view that I'm being a blouse

    Most of what needs to be fixed is simple enough so I just need to man up and sort it all.

    Right back to normal now I've stopped being a big girl with thoughts of breaking the car

    I'm taking the car off the road as the mot is now due and some work needs to be carried out which I don't currently have the money to do as I'm trying to be a little more frugal at the moment

    These are the jobs that I'm thinking of doing/getting done over the winter break.

    .Repair front inner sill
    .Remove front bumper and replace washer bottle, re-fit fmic to stop rattles and leaks and de-rust and paint the behind the bumper/lights etc
    .Paint and fit my Zenki rear bumper
    .Re-fit Zenki spats/replace for oem?
    .Refit Zenki skirts - Unhappy with current fit
    .De-rust and paint rear panel behind bumper
    .Clean up and fit my z33 rear brake set up
    .Prepare spare rockercover ready for airbrushing
    .Re-trim door cards and Gear leaver gaitor
    .Re-roll rear arches and fit rear spacers
    .Re-roll front arches
    .Remove pineapples and fit subframe locking collars
    .Oil change
    .Make new brackets for fmic pipework
    .Replace/repair & paint offside front wing and door

    .Buy a new turbo elbow + fit
    .Re-tap elbow stud thread on turbo
    .Mot
    .Clean recaro's
    .Replace seatbelt clasp
    .Find and fix rad leak
    .Replace seatbelt clasp
    .Refurbish and Fit JDM folding mirrors
    .Have Decat cut/welded to aid gt spec fitment issues
    .Fit rear lower brace
    .Full alignment + corner weighting??

    I may add to the list as and when I remember more. Thinking the car may be off the road for a while as i'm a lazy git

    Subframe polys ?

    Bigger but proper job, it might tie in with rear Z32 brakes.

    It's a proper job but yet more work. If I drop the frame completely then I'd re-do all the bushes, swap out the diff and powder coat the frame :nd:
