long story.. but i sold the silver bug twice... lol.. and then got it back again by trading it for the orange one..

then a couple months back i sent the bug in for a new spray job and the roll cage in for powder coating. Its been sitting in a mates workshop in town.... due to hectic budget & space restraints its been a while since i could even begin to look at it... but its payday tomorrow.. so i started assembling it yesterday.. :)

To DriftZ a very well done job mate, your car looks insanely hot and I would like to take my hat off to you for the awesome job.

I'm also busy with a drift project since i sold my previous drift car which is taking me about 2 years to finish and costing me 2 harms, 2 legs and a left nut .

I wish you all the best and would also like to see this car in person some day

I hope you come right with your turbo setup coz SR20 with late boost its not fun to drive on the roads or race tuned 335i robot to robot.

I hope i got the correct turbo setup for mine and that it works as i expect it!

Keept it up bro.

As long you are having fun with it and proud of the work you did, its always worth it.

from one problem to the next.. main fuse to Haltech popped again...

got the car home after being stuck on the side of the road in the middle of no-where ( with my Fiance' in the car Nogg'al ) waitng 2hrs for an auto elec to come out and tell me he wont touch it.. "but it looks lekker fast hey!" fkn doos!

but i have sourced the issue now.. sneaky issue.. my main wiring loom runs around my stock water bottle.. i was running the bottle on the max indication line.. but i have a little hole at the back which has been allowing the water to stream succsefully into the wiring loom when i park on my driveway, at about a 30 deg angle...

so i sort it and get the car starting again.. yay.. but it seems to have dropped the map ,... boo

888 are emailing me my map today... but im having issues even comunicating with the bloody ecu.. having what seems to be the comon "com Port issue".

Im gonna come back in my next life as a volvo driver or something.. getting so over this one step forward 2 step back BS'

been working on it til late every night.. were just starting to get somewhere.. and now suddenly i have a serious short somewhere... fuses pop instantly. w.t.f

i think i need a total rewire. its what i wanted to do in the beginning anyway.. but it couldnt have come at a worse time finacially.. as usual :)

probably going to just park it off for a while in storage untill funds allow me to resume work :(

im captain of the unhappy team right now.
