I'll be there, put my name down. Had a great time at the last one. -
Looking great mate. Your build is going to be mint!
-
Thanks mate 😊
-
That may explain, however I'll still give it a go this weekend. It will keep me out of trouble.

I have the ST XTA Coilovers, I will have a fiddle this weekend as I tried this not long after I had them installed. So it should get them to -2 camber easily do you think?
-
When having a play around with them, there doesn't seem to be a lot of movement to be honest. :/ I hope I've been doing it right haha
-
Haha I've been lingering around on here and planning. Nigel has done a cracking job, looking forward to seeing them fitted. Thank you, there are a few RB V2 builds in america that have these wheels on, so Ill be interesting to see how they play out on mine. I had to get some camber bolts for the front to ensure they will fit.

Well there has been movement with my build. Some may know that I have been looking into a wide body kit. I decided that the Rocket Bunny V1 kit was the style I most preferred however getting a decent kit wasn't going to be an easy task. There were a few options: 1. To buy a genuine kit from Greddy and have it shipped, costing over £5K for the kit alone. There have been issues with these kits in the past, some of which being damage caused during shipping and the fact that Greddy / Trusts kits still can have fitment issues. 2. To buy a replica kit, such as the KR kits out there. These are well priced, however I'm yet to meet anyone who is actually satisfied with the fitment of them. I contact Nigel who as most of you know if building his own Rocket Bunny V1 style kit. He is very kindly giving me his first set of arches made from his own moulds, and I'm having his old KR side and front skirts. A few pictures:: As you can see they need trimming slightly (when fitting this will be done), but he has held them against his GT86 and they sit perfectly aligned. He has done a fantastic job, they are spot on, I wish I had the expertise to do something like this! A big thank you to him, I'll be picking the arches and skirts up from him next weekend and have a bodywork garage down the road who will begin fitting and spraying on the 15th Feb at the latest. This will give me some time to get the Buddy Club rear lights fitted and to refit my rear window visor beforehand. As far as the spoiler is concerned I'm going to be selling my current carbon fibre one along with my wheels and installing the Seibon Carbon GT Wing, which Fensport are supplying me with. I do love the big wing look. I still have my eye on a few other items such as the APR wing mirrors etc, but as I'm bleeding money I may have to refrain. The wheels, which have come in today all the way from Japan.. Work Meister M1's. Ever since I saw these on a build in America I had to have them. 18" all around 10.5" rear -46 offset and the fronts are 9.5" wide, three piece. So much deep... These have been kindly been supplied by Richard at DemonTweeks, who has been a great help throughout my project. Wish me luck, and I'll keep you updated over the coming weeks. (Sorry for the incredibly long post).

There are plenty of different wheels out there, the ADV.1 are nice!, I personally am a huge lover of deepdish. That's a hell of a spoiler haha, looks tidy though! And there aren't going to be any of those in this country! You will have to get some mods done under the bonnet to justify the size of the wing though I'm assuming you getting the wing custom made?
-
Exciting build mate! I'm having my Rocket Bunny V1 kit installed myself in a few weeks, I've heard a few people have been having issues with Knight Racer so I avoided them. Glad you have over come those obstacles. I've ordered a set of Work Meister M1's, I'm picking them up tomorrow so will upload a picture then. They aren't cheap, but look great. Work wheels have a few that look the part with the rocket bunny kit, maybe worth a look. What are you doing in regards to the spoiler / wing? Looking forward to see how you get on.

I'm selling my 2.5" exhaust system and manifold as I've just had to upgrade to a 3" system. This exhaust & manifold was custom made for my GT86 by Alunox Exhaust Systems. The exhaust is second CAT delete and high flow CAT primary, and has the coned tips. Exhaust & manifold has had roughly 7,000 miles use and been on the car for around 10 Months. Great sound to it, fairly loud but the manifold gives it a lovely rasp noise. The exhaust was £780 new and the manifold was £1,140 But I have no use for them now so asking £900 for the lot. (Collection only - from Wrexham) The exhaust is in too parts as It has to be cut to transport back from Fensport so will need fitting by a garage I assume. Pictures: Any questions please ask away

I could do £600 all in, as I need the funds and space. But I can't go less as It cost me over £1900 new, I have receipts etc. Alunox who made it do the racing systems for the BAC Mono and many other racing cars. So its not just a random custom exhaust supplier, very good quality. -

Hi Mate, Unfortunatly I couldn't say, as the manifold has been designed to fit onto this exhaust. That's why I'm selling them as a set. :) -

Update: I got the exhaust out of the garage at the weekend. It looks like the exhaust has just been unbolted. No cutting. So will just need to be fixed back together. -
Okay, I know I may get a bit of negativity for saying this, but I've been looking at a rocket bunny style kit for my GT86. The kit itself is affordable, however getting the arches modified and fitted will be the expensive part I have been informed. I wasn't originally interested in this kit due to having to cut away at the arches and rivet on the kit. However (please don't laugh) after playing copious amounts of Need For Speed I have come to the conclusion that the kit really does look beautiful and has a lovely stance with this kit installed (my opinion). My question is, does anyone know a body shop in the northwest who would install this kit and spray etc professionally? Also if any of you have had any experience with this kit, and heard of any pros / cons etc it would be great to hear. I have been keeping an eye out on Nigels build as well. Cheers guys...
