Project 854 Gul Manual

[Ettienne]

Yes I will be driving my gul estate more soon

[t5 pete]

I got steve to tetrosyl the banks of the wings and the inner wings whilst it was all apart, real attention to detail. He's gonna end up with the other gul (minor touch up by window) and the olive 850r.

But looks like the buggers been eating salt and vinegar Pringles in my car! Lol

Awesome work that looks one very shiny gul

[AshDVS]

Looks brilliant!
Great work.

[Saaamon]

Do like a bit of paint, good work.

[Ettienne]

Thanks guys and that's where your brackets will end up ash, with the 320mm fronts

[AshDVS]

Awesome.
Just remember to be mindful where your wheel weights are.

It's really hard to find a good yellow one here.
I've had the opportunity to buy a black T5R and an olive T5R (as well as an olive R), but I just want a yellow one!

[Ettienne]

Have one shipped out?

[Ettienne]

A few more pics from steve and it's approaching completion, actually he is (should be taking the olive 855r to do similar with once gul is back) month or so, again very nice work, can't wait to get it back. Removing the wings is a much better way to underseal.

[Ettienne]

I'll be fitting new aluminium poly bushed wishbones, with meyle ball joints, new eibachs, koni shocks, spring mounts, calipers, discs, and meyle drop links, oh and subframe inserts.

Same on the rear.

[t5 pete]

Awesome work ide never thought about spraying the black trim on the rear doors ive just fitted new ones today on mine but managed to get a air bubble in one so will see if I can get it out if not it looks like another one on order

[Ettienne]

I just leave steve alone to get on with it, he makes the decisions tbh and I trust him to make the right ones. But it's all the little accents that make the cars look good.

I've thought about it but am always a little scared of bringing one in from the UK and particularly worried about rust.

Looking great. Definitely all in the details!

I'm sure one of us would look it over for you.

[AshDVS]

I may very well take you up on that at some point!

Yours is looking fantastic though.

Don't know what the rules are if your an oz resident but for us to ship a UK car there were only allowed to do one personal vehicle every 5 years or something like that and then it had to be owned/insured /taxed for more than the previous year in your own name, but if you do consider it RoRo shipping is a lot cheaper than a container, not that I've looked into this or anything lol

[Ettienne]

Bit of an update, steve has mopped the car, re texted all the trim and painted (didn't ask for that, just shows the mans commitment), finished the last bits of paint off.

So she'll be coming home soon.

Upon which he takes the olive 850r away for paint.

[Ettienne]

Bumper look awesome, really looking forward to seeing it

[Ettienne]

A few more update pics from steve and bits are going back on, not much more and it will be home, can't wait.

[Ettienne]

A very clean (well new) looking bumper.

[AcidicDavey]

Looking great, that bumper is fiiiiine!
