WOW now that's a lot of gauges Frayz lol!
Lovely work though mate.

 

As said before. I don't have to look at them as theyre alarmed. Nice to get the clearer road view with them no longer on the a pillar.

 

me likey a lot

 

i assume you have boost, oil temp and pressure, what else are you measuring?

 

Top are all pressure, boost oil and fuel.
Vent pod is all temprature, oil, water and EGT

My steering cowling holds my wideband AFR and ACT.

 

bye bye nasty A pillar pod

 

Love it matey! Attention to detail on this cars unreal!

All looks so factory!

 

Thankyou, factory finish is always my aim.

 

Well guys its been a good 4 years since ive taken any photos of the car other than her build thread.
We've all had a tough time with the lack of summer this year so with the rarity of the sun shining this morning i took the car out for a drive and got some photos.
Some of you will know the car has been nicknamed "The Bomber" by my close friends, so seemed fitting to take her up my local airfield for some snaps.

Thanks for looking,

Frayz

 

Today I took the bomber for some new boots.

I always go to Damien at http://www.skidmarquesltd.com/ in Hutton, Brentwood for tyres and alignment. Superb service as always.

Now fitted with 4 new Michelin Pilot Supersport, the drive home was night and day different to the way there. Obscene amounts of grip and feel from a road tyre. You can see why these are OEM on Ferrari, Porsche and BMWs M cars.

Very very pleased.

 

Vent pod proto #3

Deeper hoods and built to replicate the dash top one exactly.

 

All looks fantastic as always Frayz

Keep up the good work buddy!

Darn foreign Internet ! (double posting)

 

Fantastic car Frayz, looks perfect. Hold on to it and don't give it away for a fraction of the build cost. It looks much more subtle without the decals.

I'm biased as I've got a bugeye Prodrive, but I've never really been impressed with the looks of any Scoobies since this model. Although the latest 4-door saloon does look good with a spoiler added.

 

Thanks Andy.

 

The best looking bugeye ever. Superb

 

I'm sure you've been asked before but do you get much hassle with that plate mounted there?

 

looks great frayz, thanks for the excellent fitting job on my roof flap.
havent had a chance to drive it in the sun yet due to getting a new car but gave the car a polish last week and the job is a1 and looks factory fit.

 

just noticed the link on your website too.
looks great!

Ollie, no hassle at all.
Dan, she's looking well mate

 

Dropped the front end underpinnings off for a jolly up last night.
Some parts have gone for powdercoat others I've freshened up with paint.

Lower arms off


Lower arms cleaned and rebuilt with new poly bushes.


Crash brace got a coat of satin black before it goes back on.


Also my vent pod I taking shape and more resembles the dash pod so they match

 

Some parts back from coat along with new roll centre adjusting ball joints and track to ends. Billet anti lift kit and front Droplinks.

 

da bomber is looking sweet

 

Thanks mate

 

Just read through both of the threads from start to finish... I'm currently unsure what day it is, but who cares, because I have just witnessed one of the most detailed and precise builds I have ever read about... I did read somewhere that you're not interested in a mag shoot because you think most people already know about it... or something like that? well i think you should enquire... It's good for business

 

Wow, I think I'm more impressed that you managed to read all that! Probably about 100 pages I guess?
Maybe one day I'll get a mag shoot but I'm never happy enough with the car to display it to the world as a feature car. There's always something new to do haha.

Thanks for the kind words though mate. How comes you found the old thread? Chance?

 

Droplinks now on with sleeker hardware to give clearance under droop.
It's all looking rather "Purpellow" under here. Lol.

 

1 word = awesome

 

It was at the start of this thread... I thought I would read the old first followed by this one.

 

Lol too much time on your hands mate.
