Yes took it for a drive very nice to drive but holy batman it can offing shift and the underneath has been fully undersealed ready for winter , MOT got done in September no advisories .

Yes Locky is doing all the parts I want hydro dipped .

[scotty]

Well got a lot of parts sitting in the house ready to be fitted sent some more parts to Locky a few days ago to get dipped , Just been on the phone to Gary AKA Moley to quote me happy for insurance on the Type r and he did so will sort that out at the end of the month .

[BIG"E"]

Looking forward to that some of the parts were going on the Terzo so doing a bit of recycling so that saved me some money .

[seventune]

That's a pretty clean example dude. Looks ace.

Thanks bud pictures don't do it justice looks way better in the flesh .

[scotty]

A little update well today I got my cooler pipe back from my Terzo and Locky sent me a pic of work in progress just waiting for a few other parts to be done then he will get them sent out to me .

[Hongkongfooi]

Looking good. Worrying you have the baby powder next to your airfix

[scotty]

A little question for Scott AKA SilverSurfer how close are you alloys to the rim of the arches as you are running 8" wide please .

[scotty]

Well not been up to much just looking at new alloys to replace the P1 alloys next year at some point with these little numbers .



I'm thinking of going the gunmetal colour as gold are getting to common and I now have a lot of parts sitting in the house so I will need to up load photos of my parts waiting to be fitted .

[scotty]

A little collection of parts ready to get fitted

[Hongkongfooi]

Very close on et51 8x18
I loaded up the boot to get as much compression as possible and I managed to get the tyre to grip a piece of thin cardboard between it and the arch.

I aim to do another test soon with the arb disconnected and the springs off to see if it hits the Bumpstop before arch contact.

In Germany in 2013 I did manage to take the laquer off the alloy on the arch but not the paint. So I think I'm in the relms of micron rather than mm.

The revolution millennium are 7.5x18 so fit better and also clear brembo.

Thanks Scott , Revolution stop making 18x7.5 a while ago but they are doing a batch after Christmas 18x7.5 in gold only but I might see if they can do them in gunmetal aswell .

[scotty]

Been looking at a few power upgrades options but need to find out what ecu it is running and what ever standard parts get replaced will be getting stored .

1. 740cc INJECTORS
2. GT SPEC2 unequal headers
3. sc42 billet

[scotty]

Another part to the collection

[Hongkongfooi]

Outside staying standard , wheels are getting changed and stored , can't go down to 16"as it's fitted with brembos and as for engine has done a few miles will be looking into getting it rebuilt or replaced when money allows as it's still going strong , upgrading the turbo and injectors as and when see fit , adding a bit of colour to the engine bay and repaint some parts that look tired , as for the FMIC it will be getting used at some point in the future as what ever comes off is getting stored in a shed/garage for safe keeping in containers if I ever decide to sell but majority will be painting inner arches , replacing bushes and refreshing the underneath over time .

[scotty]

Wow 0800 in the morning and just a delivery by parcel force and this was inside the parcel .

[scotty]

Final part of the engine bay for the time being has turned up today a new alternator

Looks nice, but good luck with fitting it without scratching the powder coat.
They are a tight fit onto the mountings without paint/powder coat !!!!!!
I reckon you'll be sanding it off on the mounting flanges to get it fitted.

[scotty]

I know what you mean Scott I will need to have a good look and the long wait has come away to pick the car up on Monday .

[scotty]

The journey begins at 3pm for the long drive to pick up Snow White .

[C. J.]

Best of luck hope all goes well

[scotty]

Car now picked up looking forward to giving it a wash and start fitting the parts when I get home tomorrow.

Q1 . What paint to use when painting wiper arms as they need a freshened up
1. Normal rattle cans and etch primer
2. Hammerite smooth
3. Plasti-kote
Need a little help here guys .

[Scott.T]

I would use satin plastikote. Just give them a quick rough up with fine scotch brite or wet and dry first.
