Parry_10 Posted November 17, 2011 Author Share Posted November 17, 2011 Finished off my battery and washer bottle relocation today- thanks to john (hodge) for the info on the washer bottle relocation I then decided I wanted to hide the washer bottle as well so I was looking for places in the boot and came across something suitable. Im pretty happy with it all shame I had to move the sub box forward so it doesnt sit as nice as it did but I wanted the battery in that position so I didnt have a choice really anyway heres some pics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hmm I didnt have a speaker there not quite sure what your on about but can you not just get rid of it? just have front and rears or do a sound system set up like I have done. Im sure that oem 5th speaker is probably doing naff all anyway Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parry_10 Posted November 22, 2011 Author Share Posted November 22, 2011 The car is now with Rob to finish off the clean engine bay look with a wire tuck, fuse box hide and a few other little bits. When I get it back I have got some digital gauges to fit which should look pretty sweet, will update the thread at the time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parry_10 Posted November 28, 2011 Author Share Posted November 28, 2011 I can crack on and fit my gauges soon, just recieved the custom gauge holder made by Noz out of the orignal a pillar and a universal 3 pillar pod it looks awsome! big thanks to him, heres a pic. Had the passenger a pillar smoothed as well Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parry_10 Posted December 4, 2011 Author Share Posted December 4, 2011 Little update: Got the car back from rob a few days ago heres a couple of pics of how the engine bay is looking now. Over the christmas break im taking the car into work to weld/smooth the holes in the engine bay ready for it to be sprayed in 199 silver. Also Im going for an alloy rad, twin electric fan set up and a pulley set. I have now also wired in my digital gauges and I think they look pretty sweet I havent seen anyone else with these gauges on the forum I could be wrong though, they come with built in dimmer switches so Ive dimmed them down so I wont have bright gauges in my face at night. You can either have them in blue or red depending on how you wire them up which is pretty cool- ive gone for oil temp and pressure which ive run off a sandwhich plate and a boost gauge. The gauge holder was custom made by Noz and hes done a top job, also I got him to smooth the passenger A pillar and spray that as well. Anyway enough talking heres some pics: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parry_10 Posted December 30, 2011 Author Share Posted December 30, 2011 (edited) made use of the free ramps today as the workshop is closed over xmas, so I started to crack on with smoothing the holes in the engine bay. For the larger ones where the loom usually routes through I made up plates and welded them on through the back and then covered them with seam sealer and will underseal as well. Also fitted a new rear crank seal. Doesnt look like much but I have spent 7 hours non stop on it today the holes in the engine bay are so time consuming and im no where near having it finished.
