Too quite...
Sheit it's quite here. Everyone better be working on their cars.

My S2000 should be done in a couple days, I put the last coat of black on the body and I'll give it a final rubbing and shine before I do the final body prep (painting the trim, etc) I hope to have it done before I go to my ma's for x-mas on thursday.

What's everyone else working on?

Still working on my Impala. Just got the interior painted and just need to put it together now. I also need to shine up the body.

Unfortunately, a PC I built on Thursday is giving us trouble!

It wouldn't run with 133mhz FSB enabled, so I couldn't get all the power out the chip! The RAM won't run at the 133mhx it's supposed to, and now it won't boot at all!
It also corrupted Windows when we tried to run with Optimised settings in the BIOS!
So I know what I'll be doing tomorrow! Rebuild!

No modelling for me this week!

In the absence of a UK distributor for Castrol Super Clean, I've been forced to resort to wet & dry to remove a bad paint job on my Loctite-Zexel Nismo.

I'm always worried about losing detail when I have to sand-down this much, but I'm happy to report that this time, I may have got away with it.

A little more, and I'll be ready to try again! (phew).

So, me? I'm back into building (or rather, painting) this one.

HOLY CRAP AM I BORED! :(
So you get to see my progress on the RX-7 and S2000.

Tada! Here they are with bodies freshly painted, S2000 in final coat of black and RX-7 with fresh clear coat. Both need to be cut, polished and detailed.

Why does Taymiya only seem to make curbside kits now? If I was to do this again I'd put a lot more detail in the motor. As it stands I think I'll rip off the strut tower brace and paint it a different color. What was I thinking?

..now where was I? Oh yeah.

Dan isn't the only one who can do leather! I used the regular glossy red with a mix of 'flat base' for the seats. I think it turned out quite well. Dare I say better than Dans?

ACK! That compressed like crap! You'll have to take my word for it, the seats look the biz!

However note how glossy the paint is on side? It's not even polished yet.
