New 2g owner down south

No mate, that's something Sam (honda-hardy) did with the lights when he owned it. He took the kit off before he sold it to me..but very easy to refit apparently. Only like 2 hrs work. So may well get one reinstalled at some point next year, after my conversion. Cos it is an interesting feature to have.

And yeah, we'll get some more pics at one of the meets next year. There will be plenty of them!

my 3g is white too, b20a7 auto, perhaps a south coast meet would be a nice idea. Littlehampton or Chichester would be an ideal mid-point between us sotonians and you sussex boys,

On second thoughts, a drive up the A272 to petworth is a nice drive out. Any thoughts?

We'll get something sorted.

Will wait till the new year, then I'll get a meet organised. Unless somebody else beats me to it..

Sounds good, and we've not met up yet, crunchy, i'm only round the corner!!

And yeah, the 16's do look good Rob. Will be even better once it's lowered like you say.

I'm gonna be getting 17's again. Not to everyone's taste; and not quite as comfy a ride as 16's, but I like the way they look.

I'll be getting them in black or gunmetal this time though, to offset the white. Should look pretty sick hopefully.

I know, that's pretty lame. I've just been super busy with work, & my car's in a bit of a state of disrepair..

I think the torque converter is going on the auto box, getting some bubbling coming through on the drivers side rear arch, & it needs a bloody good clean & wax - but it's been too cold.

Maybe we'll hook up in a few weeks to check out the motors.

Have promised to go round & see Peachy as well. So it's not just you!

Really looking forward to getting this conversion done at the end of March though. Then I'll have a reliable engine & gearbox, and can start concentrating on the cosmetics finally! I just hope it doesn't deteriorate too much over the winter months; cos it is my daily driver as well.

sounds good all round, you've obviously got plenty to do, my arches were done by my mate, but it was still warm then, no chance for you this time of year, if you've no access to a warm garage for paint drying, hope she remains reliable in the meantime, like me, you're obviously a bit of a night owl, that'll change once i'm back to work tho'!!!

Yep, too true. Will have to wait till April/May to get the arch(es) done. I'll just have to apply some Kurust in the meantime, to the affected areas, and hope things don't get too much worse.

And just driving her very gently atm, in the hopes that the gearbox holds out till March.
