DJMARCOPOLO'S - The GREEN RIVET
-
Thanks, they are BBS just not splts as they are too pricey but got them at a very good price, going to get a brand new set of tyres for them soon after I have had the centers repainted to match the car Im tempted t go noble green but we might experiment and just put a candy lacquer over the silver base coat
Watch this space
Also cars in for window tinting saturday so thats another item ticked off the list :bigok:
@jayom, yes the carbon makes the centers move lol
-
Sorry to break it to you mate but I don't think are made by BBS! Thats RS 'style' made to look like splits.
-
HMM has bbs on the box too
-
Well if they are not split rims then they are copies as BBS doesn't make imitation looking ones I'm afraid.
-
Just caught up with this work log and WOW looking sick keith, like super sick :)
Looks so much different from when you first got it.
Well done!

@d9dc8aef8b=eogbaker:
wow they look amazing and this whole car is amazing. Have you managed to set up the ITB's properly yet?
You are thinking of the other Marco's car, with ITB's.
My bad lol… Still lovely wheels
-
Thanks stu, its amazing that I paid £90 for this as a non runner almost 3 years ago

Think the head gasket has finally shit itself, got stuck in tesco's friday as its seems to hydraulic when the engine is hot
Hydraulic = the hot water from the cooling system is expanding into a cylinder through the head gasket forcing the engine not to turn over due to cylinder pressure, its just a theory as its done a load of water again and it will fire after 2 very slow turns of the engine only when its hot thoughHurry up barrywhite and return my head set please !!!!
really didnt want this over the winter as I have a ford 1600 OHV engine to slowly rebuild on a jet boat I purchased recently
-
That is the problem with engine conversion's sometimes they just don't wanna run right once you take them out donor vehicle, its just gremlins though Bruv Im sure you will get them sorted once and forever eventually.
-
Oh well it will give me a chance to fit the uprated valve springs now :cheers:
-
Bad news keith :(
-
After a lot of messing about, I had my windows finally tinted
fronts legal limit smoke and rear dark smoke :bigok:
-
Looking really good mate, have you tried out a set of carbon/black tail lights.? I know the options for tail lights arnt great on a mx, would be good if you could get a set old set and pull off lense then colour code inside same as body work and then re-install lense perhaps ?.
What do you have left on the to do list ?
-
Hiya, garfy I have 2 sets of lights because they are crap and keep filling with water, I have now swapped over to the black set now due to recent flooding in the lense.
I have another pair of taillights that are all bust up so I am going to strip them down and fibreglass them up smooth so you only have the visible lights left and see what they look colour coded and flush fitting to the carI am just trying to get a design made for a full vinyl wrap for the car that I hope will look stonking and its a design I saw on pimp my ride years ago that stuck n my mind and have never seen it in the uk since
BBS alloys still to be rubbered and fitted
rear arches to be rolled and some 15mm wheel spacers fitted all round
and currently looking for someone good with electronics and engineering to fabricate something for me involving a mazdaspeed part to go onto the car, it seems quite simple on paper but i can see it will be a ball ache to get done
-
Brand new tyres from the wife for christmas so the wheels are on an pretty happy with them :cheers:
