Ah cruel, don't do this too me!!
Its pretty much the same as everything I wanted to do for Becca when I get hold of a coupe for her. Great minds think alike and all that

going by the stunning results you got with your sedan, I'm confident this coupe will be a stunning example.

Just got my original 185/55 Bridgestone tyres fitted up to the new mags, and I am pretty happy with the look.
Tried them on the sedan just to see what they look like. They stick out about 15-20mm more than the minilites did on the back (I will be flaring the guards on the coupe anyway, so thats right about where I want them to be).
Not much else happening this week, other than I got the top end stripped of the A12 in the sedan (I am using my 'hot' head for the A14 motor rebuild).
Away to Auckland for a week in a few days for my brothers wedding, and when I get back I want to get the stripped A14 block and bits in to get acid cleaned and bored, and new pistons and bearings fitted.
