Phil 11 December 2007 02:13 PM

V4JDMSTi 11 December 2007 02:41 PM

what guide's next then frayz? if you want a topic i've got a full whiteline kit, sti intercooler, fuel pressure regulator, walbro, 330mm brakes front and rear under braces.......... ;)

frayz 11 December 2007 02:48 PM

Honestly.

I'd love to write more guides but I really dont have the time at the moment.

Im struggling to find time to work on my own car right now

I really wanna see someone do their own vent now:D

Just take plenty of pics when you're working on your car and then you can always put the guides together at a later date.

got to get going on the 2.5 build mate :thumb:

was thinking about fitting 2 vents so it looks like the early wrc cars but at £200 a through, I don't think that's going to happen for some time. :lol1:

perhaps i'll put a guide or 2 together for the bits i have and get you to nose through them before publishing ;)

frayz 11 December 2007 05:23 PM

Sure mate... Sounds good.
I'm not starting my build untill I have all the parts required to complete.

V4JDMSTi 11 December 2007 08:20 PM

cool.

guess it's best till it's all there. will make life easier. although you must have a great amount of will power to stop yourself making a start. :lol1:

frayz 11 December 2007 08:36 PM

No will power required at all actually dude lol..

I build engines all day long, the last thing i wanna do is build another and not get paid for it lol. :lol1:

In all seriousness, my build will be as clinical as anything i do at work... probably more so.

Therefore i want any internal component exposed to the elements for as little time as possible.
Every item will be inspected, measured and checked before being washed and assembled.
I dont want any kind of semi built assembly sitting around for any longer than absolutely necessary. Even though every item will be bagged and sealed. I wont assemble something unless it will be completed.

This type of proceedure is vital for the perfect clinical build. :)

V4JDMSTi 12 December 2007 10:15 AM

:lol1:

that's true. like me not wanting to detail my own car.

bit different to the old bmw way of leaving the cast iron blocks out in the elements for a couple of years before using them. although i think that was to help strengthen them.

wouldn't surprise me if you had a clean area in your garage for building it. statically sealed and bleached down each day ;)
