Little update

This morning had its 3k oil change millers cfs thanks to SIR Alyn of ASperformance



Also have these to fit from the GB which tubbytommys helping me out to wire them



Martin

 

I have just read this from start to finish and you must of sank a small fortune into making your car look as good as it does, credit to you.
I do think some nice perrin wing stiffies will finish the back end off nicely

 

Cheers buddy

Thought about the wing stiffies although bit pricey for what they are think next job is to black the headlights for a darker look

Martin

 

New pic fitted up the hella horns yesterday and the gold xxr 527 should arrive soon too

Anyone opened bug headlights to paint the inserts black?



Martin

 

That'll be a great car , CBD + forged = mad low down torque / high top end without the 2.5 weaknesses. 550/550 or maybe more.

I currently have a 2.1 CBD with an MD321V / 740 cc lateral injectors and its running 495bhp @1.7 bar on vpower with 410ft lb, but... its pretty laggy -it's at 1 bar by about 4600rpm on the road.

The 2.5 will more than sort that.

Look forward to hearing the end result.

 

cant be that hard to do, someone has done it to my wrx lights

what about uk300 lights???

 

Wish I still had my bug looks mean

 

Waiting for Alyn to give me some prices on this, defo like the sound of this

Not keen on the uk300 lights tbh mate, just don't feel confident enough to cool the lights in the oven to open them

Cheers mate, bugs rule

Martin

 

Right so a job needing do for a while as the haze in the lights wasn't a great sight up close. With the help of Andy (S555 MKR) and the use of his tools, hard work and oven this is what we came out with....

Before



Job start to finish








Painted up and stuck back together



Fitted in the dark



Quick snap this morning

Cars looking really well now Martin not seen it in a while and fair play to you everything you do to it is spot on, on the engine side thought it was staying standard power haha your hooked now, I'll have to take you out in the yellow type r as this is running one of alyns CDB 2.5's with a stock mount gt30

Scott...

 

Hi Scott cheers buddy

My mate Daz said you was there when he was having his car mapped the other day.

Lol I know always said engine was staying standard but you know what I'm like and a ride in yours would defo seal the deal. Will give you a buzz this week have fmic that needs fitting along with inner wing caik.

Martin

 

Yea met daz up at teg with andrew c top lad nice spec on his motor as well, no probs Martin we can fit you I whenever for them bits to be put on, yellow machine might be finalised by then at last

A well built 2.5 with Avcs heads and a md321t would be a good road car for now spool would be great and if you build it with scope creep in mind i.e with decent pistons and rods 11m cossy ultra head studs or 14mm it if budget allows and a decent baffle plate etc, all you then need to do in the future is fit a rotated gt30 and some bigger injectors and it would be a beast

 

Does look a lot better, didn't realise how much it would

 

Sounds exactly the way I need to go Scott, ill call you tomorrow and find out when Andys free to map tweak aswell and arrange a day to suit. Will be good to catch up with you guys aswell.

Cheers Jon, Bugeye lights are bugger to do and so much more difficult then the blobs.

Martin

 

This makes me miss my blobeye

 

very nice mart it looks better and better everytime i come on here top work

 

Cheers craig thankyou for the nice comments few updates will be coming in the next few days as a couple of new bits waiting to land

Martin

 

what you bought now ???

 

You'll have to wait n see lol

Martin

 

Glad ya pleased with them Martin

It does look great against the paintwork. Its good to know we have done a set of Bug lights and will never need to do another set

Looking forward to seeing the updates bud

 

Cheers Andy, was a few heart in mouth moments but they came out great. I'll meet up with you to show you one day next week if your free. Look great on the car. Thanks for all your help

Martin
