nice big to4e

[t2rew]

this is where its all happening. my other g2 is looking sweet and to think that was up for £2000


i am still waiting for bits to come but i am quite happy with the stage im at. there is alot of money there and i was wondering if it would all be worth it. so much so i was just going to give up and buy a tuned ferenza (cant spell ). i was getting anoyed with the fact that id order something and it wouldnt come so i did something else that needed doing and that couldnt be done and so on. then i was at a stage were everything was taken off the car and i couldnt move in the garage

now it is going back together but im running out of buget. i need an ecu, a dumpvalve an intercooler, plumming for the oil and water, and an exhaust. i hope it to be done by march

 i have allowed a for certain amout of sag when making the engine mounts and i thought i haddent alowed enough but it semms that i have allowed for too much. the engine is sitting too high and it is causeing a problem getting the down pipe in. i may make new mounts or maybe move the floor pan out the way. that is a problem for another day.:reallymad

[t2rew]

hahaha,,, when i fitted the box onto the engine i noticed that the release bearing was wrong so i fitted my old one. today i phoned the supplyer so that i would have the correct one on the shelf, just in case..


turns out that the clutch is wrong too so out it all comes hahaha... i love cars, there such a   relaxing hobby:reallymad :reallymad :mad: :reallymad :reallymad

You only get one lap of lifes short circuit and with this car it will be a good one. one day, I think T11\'s are a test sent from above.

hi. as i hadnt been on for a while i thought id give a bit of an update.

its not really a million miles away for the end. i had to take the engine off the box to change the clutch so i re made the mounts. this has given me some room to get the 75mm dp in and im glad i did it. i had some new oil lines made and i fitted them too.

i will order some silicon hose to make up the cooling system and fit my electric water pump within the next few weeks, its not an important job yet  as i need to sort out the wiring loom first. this is my weak subject and its possable that ill need the fire dept ready when i turn the key for the first time:rolleyes:

the loom that i have doesnt feed the coils so i will be looking into the prob next week with ross\'s help. its getting on for five months now and im waiting for bits i ordered. its really anouying me because the prodject has enough things to worry about without having a lack of parts.

if all goes well (if they turn up)  i should be getting an apexi pfc a nd controller and a boost controler this week.

so its loom

fueling

bushes

water hose and pump

fmic

job done

i bought a compleat loom off dragon and i got my pfc ,boost controler and fuel rail off pip today.
this weekend i will be up to my eyelids in wires.

i am waiting for the manifold, this is a shame as i think i would have been able to try to start it this weekend.

[richrx]

wow sounds like the engine is very near completion. so you must be exited then, im exited for you

[t2rew]

yeah i am.

iwas like a kid at christmas yesterday when all the lovely new presants arrived

bit worried as well as the wiring is the bit that goes up in smoke if done incorrectly
