Got the steering rack to swap when the bushes arrive and i'll get these droped back in and clamped up tight
Looks great so far mate. Home run for sure now.

Hey Hardy, I was out 2 weeks before snowbombing. Maybe I'll go next year. Always at Mayrhofen though.
Not much to show but she got a new steering rack tonight

Nothing of any significance mate. Dropped some more parts at the powdercoaters on Monday and am waiting for my turbo and fuel fittings. So in between time I've Been doing private work. Hopefully have an update soon.

Collected some parts from the powdercoaters tonight including my fuel cradle and swirl pot. I think they've come out pretty nice. Hopefully pick up some fittings tomorrow that I've been waiting on, and then I can crack on some more.

Looking nice frayz, is the powdercoating smooth or crinkled? It's difficult to tell in the pic.

Very oem, which is what you were aiming for.

Pump/filter setup complete. Waiting on some fittings at the mo as the black stuff is special order only. Then this lot will go in. Swirl pot is in and ready to go now too.

Dam every component is a work of art mate, you need to put it on a plinth when its completed and not drive it
