thats the trouble when you get to his age Steve
new tech is a steep leaning curve

 

That's pretty insane Pete, lucky I couldn't come as I think I would have struggled with my 89db standard near as damn it system

 

87db was the drive by limit Stu
I was 93db static
you would have been fine
must admit, I am glad I spent the money, the track is awesome
fastest I have driven on
shame some old bloke in a red porker was holding everyone up

 

still very low db, MSV days are advertised as 98-101db at Bedford, this was very strict ?

 

Can't think who that could be.

 

Mine was 91.5 static and 87 drive by if i remember correctly

 

Thought yours was 0 db, as it's been static for a very long time!

 

EFA

 

Oil cooler plumbed in. I'll clip up the lines when the rad gets its final fitting.





Also finally have a downpipe that fits. She dont look much but ive been on hold for this since dropping the motor back in.

So we're back in business, hopefully the homeward run now

 

As said already fella, your attention to detail is totaly unreal, one of the best engine builds i've seen

Keep up the good work

 

Cheers Seb, sorry updates have been non existent. Hopefully they should come up quicker now

 

 

Fantastic Frayz the finish line is in sight now mate !

 

Cheers guys,

DEI wrap arrived today so took the turbo/uppipe back out and got these wraped up. Gave the wastgate pipe and extra layer of Kevlar to help protect the steering UJ.




Got the steering rack to swap when the bushes arrive and i'll get these droped back in and clamped up tight

 

Fuel cradle complete, needs powderoating though

 

Looks stunning Frayz, well done buddy

I'll be starting a projects thread soon, hopefully will show everyone why I've been pretty quiet and totally pi55ed off for a while!

 

I love your OCD..it makes me happy that I'm not the only one

 

you know what despite seeing it in person a day ago I thought the cradle was going to be mounted the other way so it hide\protect the pump\filter doh

 

secrets soon out eh Ross

 

Damn right, I'll be ruffling some feathers shortly, and deservedly so!

 

 

Blimey...didn't realise things were that bad Ross. Hope you are as pleased to get it back as you were when you first got it

 

Cheers guys, getting there

 

you will be shocked how bad.

Getting there Frayz. Cant wait to see it breath life again after so long.

 

It`ll be great to see it where it should be matey. In motion with you grinning behind the wheel.

 

You were right Steve...I was shocked...****!

 

Great build Frayz, how is the Clio going?

 

For all the guys that dont venture out into the projects section...

I'll let the pics do the talking.
