Ahh since i've been discovered i might as well show you all my top secret project from area 51 (my backyard) haha..
Anyways most of you may not know me but i've been on these forums since Nov 03 before i even got my 1st Cordia.
I've purchased heaps of parts from all you forum members, even interstate and thru ebay.
I had alot of problems with my first cordia and always wanted a VR4 engine. But after looking i found a VR4 engine that came with a free car lol.
I ended up purchasing this car which used to belong to Zoran from geelong. Featured on fullboost.

I haven't updated this in awhile but since this is the main update on the car i thought i'd post again..
I have finally sprayed the car.. i'm not really happy with it but oh well it's solid 2pack white so i can rub down a lil and buff it up.. so should be okay.. here's some pics.. wet paint always looks good..

Guys take 2 of painting as i wasn't satisfied with the first job.. This time with a clear coat too.
I reckon it turned out pretty good. It almost doesn't look real coz it's so shiny..(pic was taken with dried paint).
Well atleast i got off my asss and done something about my car haha..

Koray not much to see yet. just a painted shell. bad interior and engine bay still lol.

shit nice work mate, Zoran used to do alot of work round Geelong and even on some of my cars. I had always heard of this phantom cordia that was quick as lightning but never managed to see it in the flesh. Keep up the good work!!!

Post subject:  Re: FRONTN

Ahh yehh this was zoran's cordia. I've never actually met him but talked to him on the phone about this car. Twas pretty average when I got it but yes finally getting looks to match it's go!!. Few yrs back i got a 13 flat with a gtech, but they're never accurate, zoran did get a 13 flat at calder tho..
eclipz if you're round my area come check it out if you like..
Still along way to go as will be trying a reverse turbo setup with an evo 7 rs turbo 9.8T.
I'll be making my own manifold soon.. and needing bigger brakes..

ey mate, once i get my cordia on the road and my license back ill be sure to check it out. how hard was it to modify the front bar?

Author:  FRONTN [ 22 May 2008, 00:22 ]
Post subject:  Re: FRONTN

front bar took a while it wasn't hard.. just playing with plastic putty before i knew how to fibreglass. I ended up selling the front bar to oggy, he's down your way in colac tho.. I still gotta check up on his car..
I'll be fibreglassing a new full body kit in soon.. Maybe a trust type front bar.. but already have vertex rear bar n sideskirts in the build.. here's some pics.. along with some goodies waiting to go on. Buddyclub P1's and evo 2 recaro's.
