lol @ Shaun n Daz love/hate relationship How about you two just meet up and have a bloody good fistfight to settle things?

 

I'm game if he is

 

I am sure Daz wants to exchange body fluids, as polite conversation when we have met this year is obviously not enough!

Anyway.... apologies to Fai17. Back on topic..... for now!

 

Don't worry about it as there is no updating on the topic anyways.

 

The oil lines for the turbo has been done.
Rad has been piped up.
Pulley for the alternater has been made.
WRC header tank is in place.
Breather system going in.
Fpr pipes made up.
Fuel hoses made up.

All looking good for a start up next week or so.

 

 

Looking good but we need some beter pics mate

 

 

Yes Frayz....i only notice the quality of pic after i posted them up.

But i'll get some better pics next week

 

cant help but think that thermostat housing hasnt been turned enough or it maybe just the angle of the pic, but it looks awfully close to the headers!

That TB looks wicked, what year are the newage TB's still on a cable? spec c manifold too?

progress sounds really good, get some nice pics up next week

 

It just looks that way...although it could do with being further away from the headers.

 

Looks more like the TGV bodies have been painted to match the Manifold?

Progress looks good Peter!

 

Looking good Peter - more pics please.

Cheers for the scooby coin m8.

 

Don't know what you're talking about!

 

100% correct and thanks

 

Its been a while since i last updated this project.

WRC header tank with power steering fluid cooler.


Going electric


Fuel fittings and lines


The pulley/tensioner system for the alternator


Through the legs!!!


And going all bling

 

Some very nice and interesting progress fella. Watching with interest.

 

this thread is awesome......brilliant fabrication skills 2-boot

 

verry interesting

 

Is that gold covering to reflect the heat from the turbo

 

Yes

 

Looking mental Peter.......mental!!!!

 

Cheers Jase

 

I have just read all 11 pages- its inspirational! That looks the nuts.

Can I ask if that alternator bracket and setup is 'off the shelf' to make the reversed inlet work? I ask as fitting a twin scroll to my classic, and also have a FMIC.

I do a few local hillclimbs, so getting rid of any lag is a winner.

 

Its just a stanard alternator bracket and the alternator swung round.

You will need to fabricate a tensioner for the belt though.

 

I thought that as well, whats happening with this???

 

Have you not seen all those bloody adverts on telly about "converting" your gold for cash....they'll even provide you with a free envelope and estimate not too mention the special bonus!!

 

any more info/updates/pics on this great project? hats off to you, it looks stunning mate.

 

I'll get on the case next year!

 

Look forward to seeing your car on road next year Peter
