Thanks chaps :-)

 

Great project mate, well done.

 

Thanks mate

 

Just saw this post for the first time on a laptop, I loaded the pictures up from my iphone using the new app

 

So we now have the rear roof spoiler mounted,Frayz engineering inner wing box cut in and painted silver and the boonet catches Iain sent down down are now mounted which was a bit of a ball ache to fit as Iain wanted them behind the headlights and the front panel isn't flat there due to the headlight shape so we made a little bracket to mount the lugg on.
Just need to wait for the bonding to go off on the wire mesh in the bumper opening and repaint the top section of the front panel and she is complete.

Cheers Ry was great to catch up with you earlier too, really happy with your work parts look great, now the prep is done the building can start!!

 

No worries,its always a pleasure doing work for people like yourself,like we said earlier,next year will be awesome

 

Watching the F1 qualifying has got me thinking I might leave that bit of wooden baton on the front bumper, afterall the F1 cars have a plank of wood under their car!

 

Bit of areo always helps

 

Nice to meet you briefly today Ian, your car is going to be a real machine when it's ready for the road.

 

Cheers

Not being funny did I meet you? I thought I saw your car but not you? Yours is the blue spec c yeah?

 

Yes that's me and my car, I helped you push your car if you can't remember me and have a Welsh accent - there aren't too many people with Welsh accents up in Hillbilly country who haven't been skinned or cooked up in a pot.

 

Ah yes I do, oops!!

Thanks for the push!! Hope yours gets better soon .................

 

Thanks Ian, unfortunately it's pretty terminal so time to weigh up the options.

 

So getting a few bits sorted, fuel filter on order, oil coolr will be coming along soon and got the last of the wiring sorted with thanks to Tim at JTi for his help.

I know I've said it before but getting there slowly is the phrase!

Next its more big items to get such as the clutch, turbo and rotated kit, then we can get the engine down and start getting it all together

 

Will be awsome when complete Iain keep up the good work buddy

Martin

 

Thanks Martin appreciate it, I didn't realise just how much you need to get when doing a project like this!!! We are getting there though

 

Looking great Ian and really Ryan work looks just awesome,will be looking just great and good luck with the project


Jura

 

Thanks Jura

Tomorrow I am taking the 6 speed set up to the garage and today I will be ordering bushes fur the diff cradle, rear trailing arms and AS performance's uprated bushes for the 6 speed linkage to get fitted at the same time.

Oil catch can kit from rcm has landed too



Uploaded from the mobile app so hope it works ?

 

Rome wasn't built in a day mate,takes time and stacks of money to build a quality car

 

I know mate and I am really enjoying getting it built and taking care over each part of the project, but sometimes recently I wish I could enjoy my car in this weather, but then again the air con has gone now so maybe not?!?!?!?!!!!!!!

 

coming along nicely matey

 

Thanks mate

 

So while we are in the process of changing gearboxes and the rear drivetrain on the car, I thought it a good idea to upgrade some of the bushes at this point.

So I spoke to Alyn at AS Perfomance and ordered whiteline poly bushes for the rear trailing arms, outrigger diff mounts and also upgraded nylon bushes for the 6 speed linkage.

Hoping these will be a nice addition to the overall package.
