    duh, I meant 1J's and 2J's are smaller Everyone always asks how I fit my 2J in. The rear turbo sticks out a bit which can cause probs but the over all width etc is smaller than a RB20

    Update

    Well after waking up at 6.30 this morning we finally finished the first stage of the prep. Decided to fill the body line so thats all gone now Also removed the arial and rear windscreen wiper and squirter, so they are all filled and sanded also.

    Gave the sanded sections a quick spray with matt black just to seal the bare metal. Will be fitting the front guards during the week and taping up sections ready for the primer on the weekend Here are the pics.







    Also went and got a sample of the paint colour I wanted and sprayed the fuel cap. Here are 2 pics, it shows up alright, you get the idea . It will be slightly lighter when sprayed on the car though.




    Cant wait for next weekend to get the car sprayed
