A car full of trick bits Ryan for sure

 

Thanks Si

Just to let you know your calipers along with a set from Alyn at AS performance and another set from a lad on P1 owners forum are all going into the booth this week
It's a caliper week lol

 

Splendid I'm looking forward to see them..... I hope my decals are ok I sent you, I did not think of checking the size of the lettering against an OEM set.

 

Very nice mate

 

Sorry to have interrupted your creative juices earlier, but I'm sure you didn't mind taking my car for a much needed test drive.

I've never seen so much attention to detail, I think it's fair to say that there won't be another Impreza or any other car out there that'll be able to compare to your car once it's completed.

The project is coming on very well indeed and the finishing line is getting nearer all the time.

 

Got some big changes and upgrades in the pipeline,not letting slip on what just yet but I'm very excited about it to say the least!!

 

 

 

Here's the first part of the upgrades,RCM veriner pulleys,sweet!

Tart

 

The biggest out there my friend

 

And I bet you've got matching heels and a handbag

 

Now that's an upgrade, very nice mate

 

Today I got the Prodrive diff guard installed along with swapping out the current trailing arms for the adjustable one's.
Next I started making up the pipe work for the fuel temp sensor I'm now going to run seeing as Tim's Toucan has the option for it I figured why not have it running,this has been fitted in the return from swirl pot to tank so it gives the best reading of the actual fuel in the tank after being run through the system,next was making pipe work for the FPR to manifold,Manifold to map sensor,Oil way to oil pressure sensors,Turbo compressor housing to boost solenoid at which point I run out of AN3 pipe so the wastegate to boost solenoid which will have to wait.
I did put the converter onto the wastegate for AN fitting ready though.
It's damn near ready for Tim to come do the wiring,once we get the mil spec connector and I get the hole cut into the bulkhead for it and Tim then does the inside connections at his place it will be systems go for the bling loom !

And on that note I now have to go to a family get together/meal

Bit pf Pro-bolt action on the diff guard,I had to re-make the retaining bracket as the old fixed nuts were M6 not M8 for the pro-bolts.

Nice to see that your making good progress, I do like the Prodrive guard I'll have to see about of one of them for me now.

It won't be too much longer now until your car will be ready for action and can take pride of place behind my car at Rallyday at Castle Combe.

 

just went to check if my diff guard was still on

all looks sweet m8

 

well he cleaned it if it was yours

 

You might have to take mine back so you can get my underside and engine bay looking half as clean as yours

 

Went down the workshop for a couple of hours this afternoon after half a day in the garden.
Got the down pipe wrapped in DEI titanium being careful to keep all the lockwire coils at the top of the down pipe so they are out of the way for when I'm working under the car,nothing worse than a lockwire stab in the head lol,re-done the turbo to header tank hose as I wasn't happy with how it looked coming over top of the fuel lines,also finished up the wastegate adapter for AN fittings.
Swapped out the throttle body bolts for some pro-bolt action and then fitted the JTInnovations throttle body silicone hose with inbuilt adapter for air temp sensor plus cutting the samco's for the IC ready for the metal master to make the custom IC pipes.

Just keeps getting better, embarrassed that my car will be in the same garage this time next week as yours makes mine seem amateur in comparison

 

how did you get the diff guard to look like that and will you do mine

 

More tricks in that engine bay than Paul Daniels, you just have to finish it now.

 

Looking great, who cleaned up your alternator

 

Did it myself Jon

 

Fancy doing another

 

Sure

 

I'll add it to my box of bits when I get around to sorting it all out

 

No worries mate

 

Builds coming along nicely!

What trailing arms have you fitted?
