Right so now i have finally sourced a loom thanks to Mattybr5, so this bank holiday weekend i have completely re wired the whole shell from front to rear with a version 8 STI loom and started it up tonight and runs lovely big thanks to Matt and hopefully get more bits off him tomorrow

 

Right,

so i have now re-wired the whole car with a version 8 STI loom and had to change the fans and a couple of other plugs but the hard work and patients has paid off and finally got her off the axel stands and for a quick test drive.

The system still needs to be bleed fully and the clutch could do with more bleeding but she moves and drives well, so all i gotta do now is sort a few teething issues and then start saving up to have all the body work done and have the wide arch WRC kit.

 

just a coulpe of videos to show it now moves lol (click on the image to view)

i like the extreme cooling

 

Nice

Looking at you pics reminds me of an idea I'm toying with of inverting the FMIC to shorten the pipework

 

Yeah im up for reversing the inlet amd doin the pipe work but dunno how much work is involved and the pros to it

so this thread has gone quiet for abit as of work and other commitments but as its a project build i have no time scale so ts means less stress and do bits as and when lol so at the weekend i finally got round to fabricating so sub-frames and mounted my new seats in for a test fit and my god are they comfy and very supportive.

 

 

she is now ready to go to paint ( booked in with ABW Designs in January ) and then once that is done i can start to redo all the interior so im hoping for summer 2015

 

so just for some fun, baring in mind that this is on bone dry rough concrete i didnt think she did to bad but need more fuel tho haha she kept trying to cut out.

Love those seats!

 

so had a little pay with a test fit of the kit that im having fitted and cant wait to get it to ABW Designs and have the work done now so I can get it pack all done and painted

 

Its amazing how far the build has come, to think that I had a bugeye wrx with a blown engine and stripped that to a bare shell and then used everything off my bugeye sti and with a few added extras and a hawkeye front it it is now nearly there.......

 

Starting to get a little bit excited that my car is going to ABW Designs in 2 weeks time, I have now fitted the lights and done another test fit and cant believe how well that ABW kit actually fits everything just bolts on perfectly

 

gathering some momentum now

 

Great work there fella be great to see it all finished

 

Just found this and wow that's a great transformation, currently doing a hawk front conversion to my bug

 

I cant believe how easy the conversion actually is to be honest just cant wait to have all the body work done and all painted

 

So quick update the car was dropped off at ABW Designs at the weekend and hopefully have the car back in about 4 weeks once its had a full transformation and a nice new paint job as well, to say im a tad excited is an understatement lol heres just a few pics of it on its way and then dropped off

 

So I popped in to ABW the other day and kept an update of how the car is doing there and im amazed at the work that is being done, it looks amzing and a completely different car I cant wait till its finished and get it back and start putting it all back together, I now have my dash all flocked aswell now so parts are coming together and its slowly getting there

 

is it purple?

 

its barli blue its a blue with a purple tint to it

 

Awesome transformation matey, I really hoped you had went with white though, not many of them about!

 

this is true but mine will be the only barli blue one so its unique lol

 

True

 

Looking very smart fella. Liking the wide arch kit

 

so Daren from ABW as just sent me a pic of the nearly finished item and I must say I think I have just passed abit of sex wee
