This thread makes me wanna go out and buy stuff, lol

 

Lol, what kinda stuff?

Buy some stuff for me while youre there

 

More of my stuff arrived today, but you already have them

 

Such as?

 

Induction trumpet, hoooge filter, slam panel, Zero Sports Racing Thermostat for that bleedin (or non bleeding) ally radiator, Racing Battery (2nd delivery, 1st one came cracked). Busy day for delivery men.

 

I ordered some of them NGK PF 8's today.... £100!!!

Need some 650cc top feeds too, know the cheapest place to get them???

 

My injectors came from Mark at Lateral mate...

NGK Racing 8s are a good price at £100 mate. Normally £32.50 each +VAT

 

So much!!! Makes me not feel so bad now!

How much did you pay for your injectors? Zen do them for £350, best iv found so far will call em in the morning me thinks

Had my car on the rollers on Tuesday and it turns out it has 890cc injectors on it? WTF!

 

Frayz fair play to you mate, when i started reading this post about 694 million hours ago and saw a pic of a cossie and ....

"Well at the tender age of 21 after owning my Ford sierra sapphire cosworth for 2 years it was time to move on"

I thought oh here we go some little chav whose giving it large, the cossie was probably his mates or something and this thread is going to be about him f**king up a scoob but oh how i was wrong!

I can see all the hard work and determination you've put in and can imagine how hard you've been working at work to finance the project!

Cant wait to see the final project and see all the vids, keep up the hard work mate

Jonny

p.s can i have a go on your jet-ski

 

Lol, probably the first time ive been called a chav , but hey theres a first for everything ha ha.
Cheers for the props fella, it has been a mamoth amount of work and its still ongoing. I still find myself lusting over cossies and the like but this is my project and its this that i have thrown so much blood, sweat and tears into its untrue.

The jetski took me just under a year to spec, and build. Nothing compared to doing and financing this bleedin thing though lol.

Get down to Essex and im sure we could hook you up a go on the ski

 

The cosworth must carry some sort of bug with it too, my mate had one and spent a fortune on it, everything was replaced and upgraded on it and the engine bay was immaculate he sold it and bought a bugeye same as you. That was modified and messed about with then he got bored of it and sold that.

He just has a run around for work now but all he goes on about is cosworths and how he wants another one, i think it's only a matter of time before one appears on his drive!

Anyway, i think we all need another update on your Impreza gx

 

Im really wanting to update you guys but have nothing here yet. Shold be next week and you will get a whole host of new pics of turbos etc

 

Such a shame it wont all be ready for Saturdays tunnel run, i would've enjoyed having my eardrums shattered by your bug in the tunnels lol

 

Even when it is done mate, eardrum shattering wont be happening im afraid.

Its a quiet as a mouse with the simpson system... just the way i like it

 

What power are you going for with the GT30?

 

Somewhere over 450 i hope

 

My Recaro is for sale if anyone is interested

What are you replacing it with, Frayz?

 

Depends... lets see if it sells first

 

Good news and bad news to report

Good news = The turbo has touched down un the UK... (WOOO HOO)

Bad news = I have a nice awkward walk now as ive just opened the customs bill (C**T!!)

 

they do have some dubious pricing levels don't they? i'm sure they pick a number at random, double it, put a nought on the end and then tag on some other charges for the hell of it. *****.

sorry, went into rant mode there! you wouldn't guess i've just been stung myself would you?

so there's a lorry somewhere missing a whacking great turbo is there frayz?

 

Should of got therm to put warranty replacement on it mate.

Si

 

I think they were pretty limited to how much and what they could declare it as.

Still not enjoying the £186 size opening in my anus at the moment

 

Dam that's some major *** reaming right there

 

Thats pretty hefty

 

They seem to be catching up with all the importing through the web these days, gone are the days of parcels with happy birthday cards included.

 

FFS frays why are you worrying about pennies when whou know what you are going to achieve in the end

jim

 

Because unlike some, i am affected massively by the global economic situation and £180 is better spent elsewhere mate.

If you have that down the back of your sofa then feel free to contribute to the cause

 

Well consignment one is here, another should be here tomorrow.

Pleased with this and am now aware of the huge job in hand in order to make it fit and fit properly. The carbon cone fits beautifully, couldnt help but rest it in place

I have a dummy uppipe fitted and a dummy downpipe coming that will need to be modifed to fit the RHD setup. Its gonna be a pain but worth it in the end i hope.

One all the bits are here i can make a start at getting it bolted up to teh existing 2ltr, where i can check, check and check again that everything fits properly. This assembly will then be dropped back into the car so i can again check that it all fits as perfectly as possible, along with the external wastegate setup.

Once im happy, and only then will it all be taken off and sent for making properly and ceramic coating. Then the 2.5 will be put together.

But heres some long overdue pics guys, i know ive deprived you all recently.

GT3076R

 

Holy ****! That's a beast. I've driven cars with engines smaller than that.
