Saw your car when I was at RCM last...

Very nice

 

Will it be a daily driven car? If not, you might be able to get away with not meshing it up. It does look killer like that.

 

Car looks amazing. Very nice job indeed.

 

Awesome... very nice

 

very very nice !

a black lower mesh would be nice though

 

Looks awsome ,i would fit a black grill to protect the fmic

 

Nice job by RCM as usual. Best of luck with it

 

Full spec lost pls pal

Looks spot on bet you glad you kept with your car then sold it on and started with an sti

 

Stunning mate, love the crinkle red intercooler pipes.

Personally i'd leave the intercooler without a grill, looks awesome that way.

 

Lovely, Super Smashing Lovely Great. Good Job Dude. I wish i had another 8K to spend on my car.

 

Looks stunning mate, good luck with it

Is that a hyperflow monster fmic?

 

Shows that you get what you pay for !
top quality finish, very impressive work by RCM

 

awsome looking car ( i dont normaly like gold on scoobys but the rest of the car looks that nice i can see part it and with spec it will be a truelly awsome car! )

 

Congrats on that, looks awesome, it did even before the RCM overhall.

The engine is a work of art, love the intercooler pipework in the red, and thats a rather MASSIVE air filter too lol.
I like the FMIC as it is, so know what you mean about the mean look, but its obviously a very pricey piece of kit so protecting it with a mesh grille maybe a good choice.

Bet your over the moon with it, sounds like you are lol.
Enjoy it and enjoy it some more!.

 

Looks awsome, beautiful finish and attention to detail......you get what ya pay for in life!!

 

looking very nice
dont fit a grill imho
look forward to seeing it in the flesh

 

Thanks for all the kind comments guys, it’s been a long wait but it’s well worth it.

 

Ooops fell a bit behind on this thread, Hey ! worse bit over, best time to come

Wait and see how the thing rips the next time you collect it. Don't be scared to give it some matey, nothing will go wrong.

Your welcome for the chats, and enjoy fella



Looks mint by the way !

 

hey fella,

bet you're over the moon to be back in it

car looks stunning, RCM look like they've done the job to their usual high standards! keep us in the loop with how it goes after its next map.

 

Does look good Chris.
I would fit a grille just to be safe.

 

Chris you may be better off with a mesh to protect your IC.

I didn't have a mesh at first but as you can see I have one now. It looks like you have the same IC as me "the APS 750 Series R" (big dollar chap, as you know).

It's soooo easy to go right off the clock without even trying with an RCM motor and stones, birds, pedestrians etc will cause damage to the fins.


I've done a quick picture of your monsta with one fitted.

Off the shelf at Halfords. If you decide to fit a mesh go for the 10mm one. The 8mm will restrict airflow & the 12mm - 14mm will have less rigidity.

Two right angled brackets (20mm wide x 5mm thick) at the top & two holding the bottom section.
You will need four brackets. I tried two brackets and at 170 mph + it bends & stays like it.

IMO I think it looks the dogs. Being black it goes well with the "black" of your grill and bonnet scoop.

 

Looks the nuts mate! Nice one.

I would go for the mesh personally as well to protect that intercooler (££££££'s)

 

Another vote for the mesh from me

 

I understand the sense of the mesh, but think it looks better without!

 

very nice motor mate but either square the mesh up or bin it as a car as nice as that needs perfection

 

will try and make my mind up before RCM have the car back for its re map. looking sexy as hell clive

What exhaust setup did you go for Clive? Not loving the RCM back box (looks wise) was thinking of going for the team ice rear section with a silencer further down the system? It could be a little on the loud side though .

Thanks for all the kind comments guys 300miles down and she is perfect 900 to go

 

thanks mate

 

stunning build good luck with it, i like the look of the intercooling showing makes it look like an animal.lol

 

I have RCM's 3" system Chris. Straight centre section with one box in the rear section. Ranges between 103 - 105 Db's.

 

black mesh
