i got some metal treatment stuff from a bike place for ally that apparently helps it to keep its shiny finish for longer i guess only time will tell.

the rims are wheel mania 19" items but are no longer available

just one thing, dont get a vented bonnet. Ive got one and with any sign of rain all the shineyness of the engine bay turns to crud.

the rats nest looks so easy and less complicated with tho`s bright red hoses, im planning on doing this 2, not gunna go to the same lengths of polishing tho lol..

that looks very nice indeed!!!! one thing tho you gotta spray the aircon pulley silver!!!

yea i know, ive got to do the airpump aswell, just finished polishing this too.

ive got to go back into the rats nest in the next couple of days as i forgot to put a part back underneath, will probably put zip ties on all the connections at the same time.

Wasn\'t the oil feed pipe to supply oil to the turbo\'s was it? I noticed that was missing from the first piccy.

there is a sort of solenoid that bolts on under the IM close to the middle injector connections. i am missing the part that bolts onto the LIM next to where the the metal pipe that follows the downpipe goes.

ive also got to check my connections as i think ive made a mistake with the green connector in the first pic. Am i right in thinking that the connections for he injectors are two grey ones in the centre and two green ones on the end of the fuel rail?

This is the problem with disassembling it all over a year ago

Yep thats right

Well, like i said - there\'s an oil line that bolts to the top of the cover plate, and it goes under the alternator and a couple of other things. Get that back in before you chuck the engine in - it\'ll make things slightly easier.
