Ok Fai ...so far


Visit 1. Main Engine build /Motec etc. 6 months.






There was much work fitting the huge inter cooler. APS 725 series R
This is Marti's P1 but the IC is exactly the same as mine.












Visit 2. AP Racing brakes. 1 week.

Visit 3. Exe-TC suspension. 1 week.

Visit 4. 6 Speed box and OS K Triple clutch. 3 days.

car remained there for new Turbo kit - Turbo / up - down pipe etc etc.

15 weeks.

Being the first twisted kit fitted the duration ran on more than everyone thought. Olly showed me the problem caused by a certain engineering supplier. RCM.s actual work did not take too long. Had probs with a couple of dimensions that were out on the new 44mm waist gate, s/s flanges etc.
Also waited 5 weeks for bespoke wing box seen here on the left.







Matt said to me if he had of known of the unforeseen probs he would have released my car with the new box & clutch, then done a mock up of the new twisted kit on a classic they had in there yard, then given me a call when it was ready to fit.

Much work involved to make everything fit.









There have been other visits but the above is the main bulk.

 

Hey.... do I detect more grief. OMG now from Australia too

Good run ! is that a quarter mile or 1000 foot strip?

 

nice to see a few more photos

 

That would be a 1/4 mile strip

 

Thanks for the info

 

it's down hill!

 

Your welcome

 

A few more pix I have dug out. May interest some of you.

oooooooooooops, no sorry,............... it's MadHammer

 

lol at the Mad Hammer comment

SF, matey's car with "20" on the side... What are those fab 12-spoke alloys?! They look very similar to the Superleggera... BUT with evenly spaced spokes! (can't tell due to the low res image of the wheel). I've always liked the SL's... but always wanted them with even spokes, and not the asymmetric 'pairs' of 6 .

Or are they Pro Race 1.0, 1.2 or 1.3? Or are they really expensive Italian Braid rally jobs?

Any help on those wheels will be appreciated.

 

I couldn't agree more. I just try to forget about the car. The only pain is all your friends asking when your going to get it back.

 

1 year down the line and they are still asking me

 

Me too...i'm sure that was Madhammer

 

lol, you guys are nearly as funny as me

 

You can't mistake ol' Madhammer from 2 miles away let alone a few Mts

 

So true Dave. I would love a £ for every time I have been asked that.

 

Here's a new question you should get used to hearing...

When are you going to learn to drive it???

 

You name the place, date, car & £'s and we can meet up "Pedigree Chum".

As long as it does not include a drag race

 

Just noticed your aviator. Looks the nuts.

Post up some pics mate.

 

in here?

 

Yes matey

 

Here they are.
























Put those lights you sent me to good use too. Practiced on mine Perfected on yours

 

Oi Oi that looks better !! Lovely job

Jeez, you work quick. I could have only received the other rear light today !.

Looks really nice mate !!!
