Thanks couldn't of got this far without my hubby help.

 

I have had a few problems at the moment with my ecu so I am just waiting for that to come back and then mapping can go on.i decided to get a oil catch can as the one that was on my husbands car he is going to keep so I just got a baffled one from obp motorsport and got It powder coated black,next thing to get is some performance tyres.here is a picture of my oil catch can from obp motorsport.Jen.

OBP catch can.

 

It's been a while since I have updated my thread,the engine part of my project is nearly finished Nowjust waiting on the mapping,I have had some painting done on my catch can to black and my intercooler pipe work that was blue and white,are now lipstick redmy car should be mapped before the end of this month,and then I can start to give it a good clean inside and out and a fast drivehere's a few pics of the intercooler pipe work.Jen.

As it was before.


As it is Now.

 

Just a few more pictures taken,there is no bonnet on as present as it is getting sprayed up but should be back next week.not long now can't wait to get it back.Jen.

 

I just got my bonnet back from the sprayers looks much better nowI just have to machine polish my scoop to match the finish,also I put a order in for a set of performance tyres as with the increased power and braking my husband advised me to get better tyres I'm also going to get my arches rolled so that I can fit a wider set of tyres on so archenemy have been booked in for April looking to go for 225'S on my 17 inch wheels.My budget tyres will be up for sale as soon as my husband has the time to do a add for me,anyway here's a pic of my freshly sprayed bonnet.Jen.

 

I've just been woken up by a ring at the door it's the delivery man with my tyres (I never knew that they deliver so early)it's a good thing though as I'm going out and would of missed them,anyway here is a quick pic,next time they should be on my car after the arches are rolled,bye for now.Jen.

 

Great thread. The car's coming aliong a treat

 

Thanks, I am getting there hopefully all the work will be done by next week . So the next part will be cleaning and waxing. JEN

 

Hi there,haven't had much to add as I have had a major problem,Si came down to map the car,As I had to take care of my children,I got a call from Si telling me that the 6 speed that I had was a bag of nails,he said that he only got about 2 miles down the road with it and it started to make aloud noise so the mapping was aborted,after further investigation the gearbox will have to be dropped and Alyn of ASPERFORMANCE is going to strip it down and let me know what the damage is,sad times as I was so close to having a full power mapbut life goes on and it will be getting sorted.In the mean time my husband was having his arch's rolled and said that he will get mine done at the same time,as I will be using 225 size tyres,so as to make sure I don't destroy them,anyway that's all that I have to report for now and hopefully it won't be to long before my car project is up and running.here is a picture of my arch's getting done.bye for nowJen.

 

Bloody hell girl, even from speaking today I never realised how much had gone into this!

 

Well you are both showing good progress!

Was the box from Adrian's?

 

Tell me about it and I still have more things to be done but I am getting there. J

 

No, my hubby bought it for me as he still needed his. J

 

Still treading water at the moment waiting for my gearbox rebuild,so in the meantime purchased some hella supertone horns which should look nice with my red intercooler pipe work.My husband got me a oil cooler kit as he was ordering one for himself as i keep on telling him that i want to do track days with him when his car is ready,and he said it is a good mod to do for regulating a modified engines temperature especially on track,so have a few things to fit hopefully should not be to long now Gearbox and away she goes.Jen.

You beat me to itMy stuff can wait to go up now.SJ.

 

Looks awesome!

Much better than the hubby's car .

 

Wow I had no clue you could fit 225's on a classic even after a arch roll. Guessing you have coilovers Jen

 

I am glad you think so,It means that all my hard work and planing is paying dividends,plus i will get to drive it anytime i want also,so there!!!....SJ.
