Wash your mouth out Ryan 
not a chance, this thread is for the type r only now I update the project thread on 22b for the drag car. It currently sits awaiting a new clutch that can cope with the NOS as the exedy twin can't take more than a 30 shot without slipping. The twin will go in the type r now.
I just need to sell the PPG box to allow me to fund finishing off the type r

A while since this was updated but finally got the new engine in the car. Got to knock up some cooler pipework etc still. Turbo should be on the way from Scoobyclinic soon so not long now before I can get it run in.

Won't be long now I hope, we have our first MLR sprint on 18th May so needs running in and mapping before then. I have a base map on the Simtek thanks to Martyn at engine tuner. Will be mapped at RCM

Little more progress making up cooler pipes, used my gt35r to mock up pipes as turbo will arrive next week. Fitted oil cooler pipework and relocated water header tank and started work on swirl pot set up.

Very productive day trying to finish type r. Came unstuck with downpipe though, knew it needed cutting and welding as for a 5 speed but did not realise the v band fittings didn't match ! Garrett housing is 90mm and downpipe fitting 85mm. Calling Alyn
