there's a real possibility of him being in his thirties by the time it's running again

 

 

Just read your post mate! guess i wont be down zacs tonight lol

 

See you tomorrow then probably Chris

Bit o'bling, well as close as I get any ways....S202 steering wheel


Trust gear ****...

 

Wheel is sexy Ian, is that the one that was for sale on here ? That is really nice !

 

that's the puppy Stu, just need to get some allen head bolts for the centre...will be selling my MY03 sti wheel now...would look good in a blue type R I know

 

Whats the difference between the STi wheel & the S202 one, may be interested in the STi wheel as i assume they are smaller than wrx ones

 

Just looking at it you can see it's gonna feel comfy and solid, top purchase !

 

Ha ha who's type r then? That *** only has 5 gears marked on it mate

 

a bit fatter and a bit smaller, much nicer than the WRX version and you get to retain your airbag. Going rate is around £220 with all the airbag gubbins...I'm sure I can sort you out a Sqn discount though

 

and it's rocking horse $hite rare too

 

lol I'm saying nowt

Will be a while before I get my six speed...the **** was a bargain and I've coveted this style since Frayz got his yonks ago

 

A small change...this.


post trim and paint


to this. A bit cleaner.

 

And there was me thinking i was gonna see a major update

 

lol, nah...off to the woods for some digging

but at least that should stay where it is and not need to be moved again

 

No pics of your new bike ian?

 

I'll post one up tomorrow Chris...i've not put a chain on it yet though

 

New bike as requested by Millzy...I'm hoping to grow into it


Kevlar belt as sourced by Millzy Just need my head gaskets and 12mm oil pump now

 

finished yet?

 

not quite...yours?

 

what have i told you about silly questions

is my car finish...pffftt

 

finished is a state of mind...and my mind is just a state

 

a bit of an update, I started looking at how to mount my oil cooler in the wing and quickly realised it would be a lot easier with a smaller square cooler, so I managed to find a good sized second hand Setrab cooler for £24 deliver from e-bay I think the new location is going to require some longer hose so I'll have to make some up...yet more -AN fittings required

On that subject I now have a shiny new swirl pot (thanks Ellis),


and have an unused second hand Bosch 044 pump to power it...I just need to order my Fuellabs filter and then I can mock up some mount points to work out how many fittings and how much hose i need. Earl's are going to love me

FC now removed and boxed up for sale...this month is going to be expensive


More good new, Zak has started mocking up my engine to work out which gaskets to use so it's getting quite exciting now...2.4 goodness all the way. A few pics below for Lee of his newly arrived EJ257, less donuts and this one might last a bit longer :mate p

 

didny realise you were going 2.4 matey

 

now Zak's onto the mock up build for the motor he has started working out exact specifications for me...will update this thread as he gives me more information Jon

 

coolio man. im gonna be in a right engine dilemma soon to be fair. you start speccing a short block then wonder, what heads and how far do you mod them! and what turbo goes well with your engine recipe - all this and im not even at a stage where im ready for forged yet! lol

i keep lookin at enginetuners 2.1's and thinking i could just send me block off and have a 500hp 2.1 which will be solid. i think il have to keep mine dead simple, nothing too fancy to go wrong, but you know too well that scope creeps a bugger

 

I know how you feel, back when I broke the thing almost thirteen months ago I said it was going to be off the road for only six months...if I'd have stuck to my original plan of using a newage bottom end and sti 5\6 heads it would be running by now

 

awsome build mate

 

Cheers Ellis

 

Snap mate scope creep is annoying lol, once your engine is finished zac can build mine! 500/500 please. Got ellis making power steering pump res now and mayb header tank soon cos its all got to be moved about. Want the car back on the road by end of the year though, just wish it would stop raining
