If it helps mate, I found my old order;

It was 2018 when I ordered but was only £29.99 then.

 

Custom Brake Hose

Fitting One  Swivel Male - M10 x 1.00

Fitting One Angle  90°

Fitting Two  Swivel Male - M10 x 1.00

Fitting Two Angle  90°

Support One  Single Bolt Locator

Support Two  Rubber Grommet

Length  150cm

 

I seem to recall (with a rusty 4 year old memory) that whilst I needed the 90° for the master side, a straight would have been better at the slave?

It certainly worked with 2 x 90’s but I can’t remember the orientation of the slave so have a quick look what you thinks best.

Been finishing a few jobs this week before the car goes to SRD Saturday morning. Took the week off work because i know everything always takes longer than expected!

Started by finishing my heat shield for the clutch and brake reservoirs.

and then finished my power steering cooler lines and filled with ATF - 🤞🏻 no leaks so far!

Looks good Harley - Where did you get that Engine bay box? 

Thanks mate, i bought it from Lee Elkin-Afonso. I then cut the top off it and added the heat shielding to the side. 

Once this is all done and back from SRD and i've enjoyed it over summer I'll be booking in with you for some underside work!

I got all the lines installed underneath the car too. Which were the perfect length. 

The kit included 4x billet fuel/brake line mounts for the centre of the car but nothing for the rear where the fuel lines route over the subframe. I had some AN8 duel line clamps which i mounted to the factory locations using some thread bar, i pinned the brake lines in the same place too using plastic P clips - all in all im pretty pleased with the result. No loose fuel lines or brake lines and all done neatly. Photos are pretty grainy due to the poor lighting under the car

Whats are SRD doing for you ? Making the intercooler pipework I take it ? and then mapping etc ? 

Yeah intercooler pipework, down pipe and mid pipe fabrication. Adding additional sensors for the Link ecu, installing the engine loom, wiring the fuel pump relays and gauges, wheel alignment, few other loose ends that need finishing and then basically getting it run in and mapped!

Started reading this 3 hours ago and just couldn't stop. Way past my bedtime, but what an incredible build. Can't wait to see what SRD do for you.

So I've had a couple of updates from Lee..

All the fabrication work is completed, so thats the intercooler pipe and exhaust done. They've also made a small loom for the gauges and got them working..

Assuming there's still a bit of engine bay wiring to be done and then hopefully we'll have it running soon! 😁
