Default Zebidi build thread! Woop!

Plans for life so I sold my S2000, with MASSIVE regret. I literally took that apart 2 or 3 times and put it back together with a friend of mine.

Cris who acquired the car is LUCKY! NO other S2000 drives like my old one. But I did spend a lot of time making sure mechanically it was AAA! (The A stands for awesome).



Salute!

Two EP3s and money lost on a stupid Cat C later I went on the hunt for my next one. Lost more money on travelling etc. After being picky, crash damages, leaking head gaskets, non negotiating ones I finally found one that was the quickest car purchase EVER!

92k Miles but the car literally looks brand new. I do not understand how this can be. The interior AND exterior is. The wheels have the TINIEST amount of corrosion and literally brand new tyres. Fingers got lost in them. Strong engine, a mountain of history (full)

Photos:









Couldn't live without one, no car drives like it. HAD to have another one. Just gotta get a sensible size car on the side also. Wish I had kept me yellow one!

P.S. EP3s........ suck.

Tegiwa shifter extension and Skunk2 weighted gear knob. BOOYA!
Don't diss! 3rd to 4th feels like it's a sequential box LOL!

Carbon vinyled the centre console too to protect it from scratching.

Street friendly / Occasional track, just realised I had a damaged bootlid sat in my garden for months so I could just repair that for a future BGW.

build
/bild/
Verb
Construct (something, typically something large) by putting parts or material together over a period of time.

You're not really building it, you're modifying what has already been built.
