Hey Lennert, if you want we can swap between the USDM bumper of the Trueno and your original bumper. Been wanting to get rid of that thing for a while now.

Been away for a while. Lots to do.

The head of the engine is worked now. Still need to order new valves and valve guides.

Engine is suppose to be a GZE but thats not yet 100% confirmed.

I am in serious search of new shocks. Koni sucks for a track car. I will concentrate on the bottom of the car to get it done. Than I have to make it ready for paint.

When its that time. I have more pics.

Any suggesitons on the shocks ? I need short stroke. And it needs to handle 8 and 7kg springs. no coilovers.

hey dj thought of tokico hts but not much use. I don't need adjustable dampers as the car will be mostly used for drifting .... but the koni's just don't do the trick.

I need something cheap and strong enough for teh 8kg springs

Dust off the topic....... Confused

Well I got my dad to help me today. He was a car restorer in his younger years (like 30 ago) but he still has the touch. I also cleaned the engine bay of the steering wheel clutch and brake cylinder.

Ok now I bumped onto something funny. On the right side of the body I found after some sanding another colour.

Blue!

Which colour should I make the car

033 white?

or original blue from that year. (thinking about mux his old car)

Nice going! Thumbsup

I'd say spray it the color Mux's car had and start confusing people at Zandvoort. Dr. Evil

White is done to death, make it bleu. Wink

Posted: Sun Jun 29, 2008 10:20 pm Post subject:

Blue!

But you can see the original colour on the type plate right, so what does that say?

Maybe it was in an accident at some point and the rear quarter panel was replaced by one from a blue car???
