Thanks Andy, I am really pleased with how it's going with the race car.
Gearbox is now feeling the strain, planning to go Hawkeye which will certainly help the 1/4's
So while the Blue car has a rest for the next month I will crack on with the Type R, can I actually get it finished for April sometime that's the question

Thanks mate, more to come yet too 
Here's my top speed run of the day vs the quickest (Madden from GTROC in his skyline) You will see where my trace ends when I bottle it at 184mph

Busy day with the cars today, first set off to Bedford early doors to pick up another set of 17's, then took the Billet car off to have a MOT and it had a little photo shoot. My pal is a budding photographer and the shots have turned out very well.
Also had some time on the Type R -
I got a intercooler pipe from SleeperSy last week with a boss for an air temp sensor, but the temp sensor I hoped would fit didn't so I soon sorted that -


Then I trial fitted and soon found out I need to lower the fuel filter


I set the lad on tidying up the wheels we picked up this morning

Fitted the header tank insulating spacers and tank itself, then filled with coolant



I found out with the air filter we have I am going to need some different to standard hoses so measured up and I will get those ordered. Then it's ready to turn over !

sound like a very good combination mate, looking forward to seeing this type r roll, if its half as good as your race car it will be a tool, are you running it on v power or e85 or race fuel mate, as i believe morrisons are taking e85 off sale however in my experience better results have been achieved with e85 from anglo american oil company as it is a true 85% ethenol unlike morrisons which imo is not very consistant.

Sy has just changed to that E85 from them I believe and achieved better results than Morrisons stuff.
