I have (today), just started building my GTR, when I say building I have sat in it (making noises), and mocked up my steering wheel on a broom handle.

I was wondering if there's anyone in the South West - Bristol area who has a GTR who wouldn't mind me looking over it for a couple of hours?

Cheers,
Tim.

Welcome Tim
You've kept very quite if you have gotten as far as a kit in the garage without even telling us about it, shame on you.
Can't help much with your plea as I'm over in the Portsmouth area.

Eclipsar is down your way but can't recall him posting recently.
GTROne is also down in Devon.

Don't be shy.

Hi Steve, It's not so much keeping quiet as a spur of the moment thing!

I visited the factory last year and decided I couldn't afford it! However a few events transpired and I decided that I could maybe / possibly afford it, and then a kit came up on here with the first 5 stages and that they say is that!

I'm already fed up with doing the alloy paneling though!

Cheers Liam, I may well take you up on the offer, me and the wife are often down in Paignton / Brixham diving so not too far away!

Hi Mart, I will drop you mail shortly as I think your build is what I need to see next!

Cheers all,
Tim.

No problem Tim, speak to you soon. Once the ally panelling is done life gets a lot more interesting :-)
