Cosmo 20b rebuild

[frank20bcosmo]

Cosmo pics for every one.



Looking very good BTW. Have you got to run it in and then are you getting it on the dyno?

got to run it in, 150 miles done, 850 to go
 
hard work with an auto trying not to use boost and accelerate, I would estimate 0-60 is about 20 seconds :Giggle
 
No grant not going on the Dyno yet, manual gearbox conversion in September and then a stand alone ECU if cash stretches that far,, then the Dyno,
single turbo after that and fuel pumps sec injectors etc and BIGGER BRAKES but that will be at least a year away or a lottery win
 
Thanks for posting the pics

Thanks Syed, that means a lot coming from you :god
 
a few more cosmetic jobs to be done before it goes back to Pip for the gearbox job, got my eye on some larger alloys and I am going to get the rest of the Mazdaspeed bodykit side skirts colour coded and fitted, I have the version with the cosmo logo on the side skirts that actually illuminates,,, it lights up when the side lights are switched on,, looks pretty cool, then some BC coilovers to get the stance perfect just hugging the top of the tyres,, we never stop do we.
 
I have just go a re-am strut brace from a guy in Japan and a bigger intercooler (thanks to Kev for this) so getting the parts together for next stages of the build :mmmm

Thanks Adam
 
there was a 3 rotor plenum on e-bay about 6 months ago I think it sold for about £30, I was gutted as I wanted it as well as I was going to get that one polished

Pleased you have the car back, be great if you could get to Rotorstock as I\'m sure loads of people would love to see this car in the flesh (including me)

Frank I absolutely loved your "to do" list. Just to add that, I have quite a few aftermarkets available. For example, single turbo manifold for 20b, intercooler, turbo, BC coilovers (for fd thou:D). As mentioned before, if you need anything just let me know. I am really glad to see your car and I look forward to the passenger ride :Thumbs-up

Cheers

Hi Mir, thanks for the comments, I do not think the single turbo manifold for the FD 20b will fit the Cosmo as Pip had one but sold it last year specifically for the Cosmo, I will keep in touch as things crop up as I am sure they will, I have posted a little video of the burbling 20b just sat on tickover, did you view it ??
 
cheers

They\'re a nice looking machine aren\'t they!  Good to hear that 20b burble!

Hi Mate

Yes indeed I view It and I just loved your car. It\'s nice and clean and above all very stable on idle unlike mine . It\'s a one good looking car and I seriously hope that, you will enjoy this car and you won\'t sell it or get rid of it lolll

Oh the engine sounds really good and healthy

Cheers
