Why T Posted March 15, 2015 Author Share Posted March 15, 2015 Been a while since an update. So i finally git around to fitting the engine back in today. So happy its done. Thanks to Rob M with doing my polishing and getting all posted to me. Top bloke. So i fitted the Mounting Brackets and the oil Filter housing which have all been polished. Also had the front Anti Roll Bar painted green and the brackets black. Safe to say im well happy with the colour. So i had to refit the Runners and the turbo side as well and i got it all ready to put back together with the gearbox. Lucky i have that gantry crane in this new building i have and no im not trained but who cares haha. Also fitted new braided clutch line. Nearly in :excite: Thats it she is in. happy days :) Thats it for now. I have done other little bits and bobs but will update soon.

Why T Posted April 12, 2016 Author Share Posted April 12, 2016 Right. Been a long time. Over a year. I left the army and needed to sort my life out befor I could continue to build the fortune. I now have no time to work on her so she is with Darren at Whifbitz. Been there a couple weeks. I am hoping she will be finished soon. Currently getting a syvecs with all the trimmings put in and a new fuel system and a few bits and bobs getting done. I now have JamieP's old Greddy intake manifold off Al Massey. Who is a star. Thanks bud. So soon. She will be road going and I can't wait. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bit of the engine and the fan shroud The new FMIC fits her mouth perfectly. Just need to decide on a grill or not. What do you guys think??? She has been lowered and the front is lower than the rear even though it looks strangely higher :/ haha And new fav photo. And one with bonnet half closed.

Why T Posted May 31, 2016 Author Share Posted May 31, 2016 Right little update. Syvecs is in. All the sensors and everything required for future plans. Have also got clear cam cover for when I change the cams, top carbon front cam cover as well. Carbon bonnet dampers which only just work due to the weight of the bonnet. Aero catches on the bonnet and the boot lid. Locking obviously. And black. Fuel pressure regulator hidden away. I can't even tell where this is if anyone has an idea? K&N air filter, will be changed for green filter in the near future. And just a nice pic that I like Excitement. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hemanhead Posted May 31, 2016 Share Posted May 31, 2016 FPR is underneath the inlet manifold if that's the picture you are referring to. Nice to see this car getting finished, hopefully you will get to enjoy in this summer ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
