Hope you are still doing well. Beautiful town you live in on the South Island. I spent a couple of nights there about 10 years ago and was sad to see you were hit by the quake.

Finally installed my Rennline pedals from my previous car. Also got a new genuine windshield installed, paid for in full by my insurance co. New glass is so clear!

Found a small hold in the front pan just behind the bumper. It was about the size of the tip of my pinky finger. Looked like something punctured it from the bottom like maybe a sharp rock or the previous owner drove over something sharp. Anyway... I drilled it out with a half inch bit and put a ribber body plug on the hole. At least it will keep the water out.

Got a full set of Sebro rotors for $343 shipped. Ordered Thursday, arrived today.

Here's the seller: http://www.ebay.com/sch/m.html?_odkw...o+993&_sacat=0

By far the best price I found for a set of good quality German rotors.

Wheels going in next week for a respray. I am fairly sure the color is Diamantsilber L94A.
If anyone has any additional information on the color please chime in. The car is a 1997. sorry for the crappy pics.

That looks interesting. Please report back on how it works. I like the idea because I like to change the oil when it is hot so I can empty as much as I can out of the cooler etc. this would make it much safer.
Thanks

I had my stock side skirts painted. Finally got around
to installing them. I think it helps the side profile
with the turbo bumper. Beer time now
