Finish my RB26 260Z Project - Well on the way
Get my previous project - 250HP EF Civic fully resprayed inside and out so that I know its going to be mint for another 10 years
Get a triple garage with a 2 post lift and space for storing project parts
Take one of my cars to the Nurburgring
Learn to Weld
Next project car to be a V10 (thinking S85) looking likely to be an E30 M3
Do more trackdays


Would love to own an Atom 300 or Caterham R500 sometime

Ultimate Dream is a Blue Lexus LFA but will never ever happen due to job & not doing the lotto lol.

Relativly shirt term goal is to own a clean AE86 for the weekends/shows and have a roughish s-body or skyline for a day to day car and general shinanigans

I would like to have an Evo 8/9 as a weekend car before I get to 25. By that stage, I hope to have tried a DC5, E46 M3 and a couple of other more high end cars. I've already had a few EP3's and an E36 M3, fancy something fresher or faster now just.

Once I have a house and garage sorted out when I'm older I'd like to have some sort of low mileage top spec car or a classic in there for Sundays. It will more than likely be an E46 M3 or something along those lines as it'll be a few years away yet, maybe even an AE86.

Some very wild goals tbh

Mine are quite simple

Personally from the age of about 20 I've tried to loose interest but easier said than done

Passed test - done
Owned an 80s hot hatch as a first car - done
Own an ae86 - done
Have a brutal power well speced anti farmer spec ae86 - half done
Own a 200sx - nope
Own an evo6 - nope
Visit the ring -nope
Drive from Belfast to Paris - nope

Age now 25

Do you have a project thread up on this? Both myself and @Gaz have strong love for the Z cars, and an RB is the only way to go in them - would love to see what you are up to!

I don't have a project thread up on here, but if there was interest I could put one up.

I thought it must have been. I was very impressed with the plans you have for it, you should definitely get a build thread up!
