GT-Roadster: June 2010

My roadster went to auction as avbove.

The roadster returns 2 months later. It re-appeared minus a lot of the choice items but some more detailing.

CE28N were painted body colour (probably to hide some scratches.)
Front bumper was repainted and all the small holes from the number plate and the canards

No Ohlins, No Stereo.

Japanese Auctions are sometimes a chance for someone with money to pick up some parts for free.

Stock or tuned cars are the same cash.

So I guess it makes sense if you can afford to.

Buy a car, remove the parts or exchange for stock and re-sell.

No, I didn't re-buy it.

I swapped my Advan's with the CE28N from my friends race car.
They wanted to get some more grip on their prelude. The change has worked well for them.

They only run the Advans on the rear as they have wider rims up front now too.

Recently they won a 6 hour enduro... I think it was totally because of my wheels of course.

haha.

The final entry for GT-Roadster blog.

I had fun in my car and I think it was a pretty good looking car for a budget vehicle. Sensible mods were the key for this car. However it did seem to inspire some as I received lots of feedback from the roadster community.

There are many others with a similar passion that are prepared to inspire also. Head over to roadster garage http://roadstergarage.wordpress.com/ for Adam's similar obsession with his NB.

He run's a segment called Roadster of the week, which means a cool car every week. Stick it in your RSS feed and check out the progress and cool inspiration.

Thanks for the feature.
