Pictures of my little beasty one!
Now, i must warn you, these pictures arent very small... in fact they are quite large, close to 4000x2600 But as i had quite alot of trouble finding large hi-res pics of a Cappa i thought i would share =]
http://profile.imageshack.us/user/chernoby1/images/tag/cappa
small overview:
Small photoshoot right on the 'devils corner':
Now should mention my cappa has afew problems, and they are getting more and more irritating. First, Pink mirrors.... GRRRRRR Second, large gash/dent below passenger door... Third, recently got backed into by a car with a towball, marks left on passenger side of front bumper (just above indicator)... plastic bumper + heatgun = Fixed (just need to respray) Fourth, i think one of my diff bushes are stuffed, reversing down a hill = strange creaking... could also be handbrake cable getting sticky at the ends
soon to come: 1. non standard intake :O (most likely DIY with a pod filter and some pvc ducting + heatshield) 2. Limited slip diff, ive been on a track and 'tried' to drift, didnt go too well. 3. New paint + resto to 100% original extiror 4. RS Watanabe's or Volk ce28n's, would prefeer watanabes for that 'stock' look. |

Woo Hoo
But I wouldn't go too mad filling up that big space in the back. Like the cappo, the weighht distribution is superb standard on these cars and it would be a shame to spoil it. And anyway they can be scarily quick even with the stock F6A + a few additions! |

Don't know about you two but I find Knox is full of kids who think Ozone is like Chapel st!
The carpark near 'supercheap auto' isn't too bad though - or possibly meet at Knox City somewhere and drive to somewhere else closeby after?
You have my number kayfour - I will be free Sunday |

Which one is the one at supercheap auto? I think we can meet in knox somewhere! and we could just cruise in 3 cappuccinos. Mini Cappuccino Cruise! Ill see if i can confirm details tomorrow (being saturday)
if all works out, we can meet at the knox carpark... hmm the one near hungry jacks at 1 on sunday and we can decide what to do then? Cruise and take photos and just general chat would be cool!
Im hoping the weather will be nice so we can all have the tops off |
