Thanks rick

 

Sorted out my engine bay over the last few weeks. It went from this


To this


Also had the secondary air pump, and tgv's deleted, rcm manifold spacers, perrin cold air intake, turbo inlet and turbo blanket. All mapped in yesterday

 

Some transformation that mate looks brilliant

 

Thanks buddy its a work in progress but getting there.

 

Zany where did you get those parts from they look really good

 

Mattyb the breaker on here
Thx they are as new shame I missed the front c frame it was blue aswell but wasn’t sure if it would fit widetrack

 

Ha ha , you copying me Zany , only kidding , looks good man . But it’s actually centre brace to aid diff lockdown .
Here’s a pic of mine without the brace

 

Thanks mate

Yours is miles cleaner than mine I’ve just put the bits on yet, going to strip it all underneath in winters
The attention to detail is superb on yours

 

Kind words
/ yea get it stripped over winter & don’t forget to keep the pics coming it’s good to see dedication
Kind regards mic

 

Looks good.Why do people fit manifold spacers though?

 

Helps keep inlet temps down by insulating the manifold from the heads. And raises the inlet 10mm so you can fit a bigger inlet pipe for big turbos( which I don't have ). I have noticed that my inlet manifold is a lot cooler after driving than before.

 

Thanks for clearing that up I always wondered why.is it a popular mod then and do you get longer bolts with it

 

It depends on the kit. The rcm ones come with new gaskets and longer bolts. Other ones come with just spacers. I think quite a few have done it. In my case the inlet was off anyway so why not.

 

Would the spacers be any use on a JDM blob which doesn't have the tgv's ?


Would be purely just to raise the manifold to aid in fitting larger intake chamber from air filter.

 

Yes mate

 

Added Perrin Radiator shroud and belt shroud. Plans are red strut brace, full roof d samco hose kit (intercooler, powersteering, ancillaries and radiator) will also look at a custom fuse box and battery cover

 

 

SC gt30 billet and rcm rotated kit , remap

 

Bought a damd steering wheel today

 

Indeed, that bucket is so super-fly, it sports its very own 8-pack!

 

"Well, I'll be....."

 

It’ll get lost in the post now because you just jinxed yourself

 

Probably if I didn't have bad luck I wouldn't have any.
I just hope it's worth it.

 

Only joking pal

It’s defo worth it guaranteed satisfaction
