Wow!!

Thanks for mentioning about this thread last Thursday! Just read the whole 15 pages...... At work lol

I'm stunned. Awesome build. And that colour! Even before the 1st page I was thinking "Lime green! Lime green! Lime green!..." lol Kwacker green = even better!!!

Simon, I really reckon you should powdercoat the alloys a bright white though(?)... Just a thought. But then again, keeping 'em clean...........


I'm desperate to see the final engine build installed and mapped... and the dyno results lol. Are you defo 'starting out' with that brace of VF48s then?

Nice seat, good to see you left a runner on it so other people can have a go - I took mine out so the wife couldn't reach the pedals

Two bolts will be going through the holes top and bottle drilled in the panel. Wasnt enough time to find bolts and fit. At the moment it is interference fit on the shaft.

I presume thats what you mean?
