Awaiting update

 

Well after some serious shopping I've got the following bits. Sti brembos with near new ebc discs and red stuff pads along with braided lines, aftermarket steering wheel, sparco harnesses, rear brake shoes to fit the rear brembos and roll cage padding. The cage is currently with the powder coaters and the car is now stripped of all sound deadening (Except behind the dash) ready for paint tomorrow. Brembos and gauges are going in tomorrow as well. Arches have now been rolled and the reverse inlet manifold pipe work has now been made all in all, getting there ready for my self inflicted MOT deadline of the 28th June

 

Well ALL the sound deadening is out so is ready for paint inside. All the plastic is up ready for my mate to come over and spray it all in the garage.

The fuel set up is now complete and the engine bay look is near complete! What's people's thoughts?

Well had some good and some bad progress. Inside of the car has been painted and had been assembled which I'm really pleased with. Battery is now moved to the boot and connected up as well.

Bad news is after cranking it over (crank sensor removed), I've found the fuel fittings are weeping. A phone call to Alex at torques today and I'm sending him all my fuel lines assembled and he's going to take them apart, redo them and pressure test it for me before sticking it back in the post to me.....that's what I call service! MOT booked for Wednesday next week and then map with Paul at zen on the 15th! Fingers crossed all goes well between now and then!

Having issues uploading photos so they'll be added tonight hopefully!

 

Finally the car is ready for its MOT!! The car has been fired up, run up to temperature, any leaks addressed, dumped the oil again and filled up with millers CFS nano 10w-50.

Car is running nicely and once it's through the MOT, alignment is on Friday and mapping with Paul is on Tuesday! All in all, very happy

 

Lovely project! Some great work there. How is the wheel tuck and stance looking now the engine is back in?

 

Thanks! I'm well pleased with it especially with it all being done in my garage at home. The one on the right in the picture is mine, from a few weeks back when I gave her a wash but you can see the look of the wheel in it......full geo set up is on friday though
