j_jza80 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 They look awesome. Should look a bit different to the usual bling when done. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SupraD06 Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Looks great Jamie, Very stealthy looking. You may have started a new trend now though, as that black might be the new bling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jevansio Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Powder coating looks superb Those BL manifolds do make the turbo sit lower than most I think, didnt have any problems with GT42RS on the HKS manifold, and that front housing is huge. Got to be the manifold design causing it. Sounds promising, maybe I won't have too much of an issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieP Posted October 14, 2009 Author Share Posted October 14, 2009 Looking good mate but where'd the lively looking green accent pieces go?? Change of heart on the green? As the yanks say im "murdering it out":d Lee has his work cut out cleaning all the powdercoat off where it should not be, that stuff gets everywhere Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
supra matt Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Looks nice but i would of left the center of the sturt brace alone think it will look over the top now with all the dull colouring under the hood . Think we should do the bay white will be a nice contrast that or change all them bits you just had done to white:d Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NO:) strut brace looked manky so had to be done, Turbo is being polished so there will be a bit of bling. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted October 14, 2009 Share Posted October 14, 2009 Looks great Jamie, Very stealthy looking. You may have started a new trend now though, as that black might be the new bling. Its been the new bling for a long time. Myself, Heckler and Jamie have all gone for it (me being the first out of the trio ) I think Colsoop was first though?

JamieP Posted October 16, 2009 Author Share Posted October 16, 2009 Got the intake back from the powder coaters, had him machine off the raised bit that the greddy plate sits on before he powder coated it, the guy has very reasonable prices. machined and powder coated for a score.

dandan Posted October 16, 2009 Share Posted October 16, 2009 Nice job, the gunmetal kind of colour looks good - get some photos of the inside if you can please mate. I like powder coaters.....Imagine how much you'd have paid to have it machined and then prepped and sprayed by a bodywork place Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest racing fan Posted October 19, 2009 Share Posted October 19, 2009 Jamie, You need to cur the end of the compressor cover off slightly and weld an elbow to it. The H Covers are a bit larger than the S Covers but can be made to fit with a cast aluminum eblow. http://www.boostlogic.com/xcart/product.php?productid=117&cat=33&page=1 http://www.boostlogic.com/images/parts/general/CastElbows.jpg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
