purple peril progress

[bnaellis]

This car has no 1st gen parts fitted anymore. So it can longer be classified as a 1st gen. Oh please bite Tim where are you ??
no doubt under the hood of your pruple hybrid.

Your right Brian, to me it looked like an FD with a 1st gen body He did a good job with that engraving tool on the housings to change the \'13b\' to \'12a\' though dont you think?

You purple boys eh... ...what will we do with you.

The only FD parts are the ignition coils and leads,and a Greddy intake elbow.Definitely a 1st gen,just slightly modified.

haha I knew you would bite eventually:D
What about the fc parts

[Carl]

It has some nice Turbo 2 end plates though!
Bigger inlet port runners than 12a stockies.
still has 12a rotor housing\'s though.
Great job Tim.

Carl

I would hope it has 12a rotors as well

[Timrxmotors]

Yes,it has 12A rotors! Here is a pic of the modified inlet manifold with extra injector holes,beside a stock one.

Is it running yet? mine might soon ish

[Timrxmotors]

Here is a pic of the engine,ready to run.

[Timrxmotors]

It runs. .Engine is very smooth at 1500 rpm,anything below it goes Brap,Brap,and the car rocks from side to side.Done 30 miles,it seems to boost very easily,even on part throttle.Next job is to tidy the wiring,honest! Here is a pic of the modified bonnet,with the help of an angle grinder.

cool ... I think your fan shrunk in the wash though

[antnicuk]

I suppose the vent is purely to cool the elbow and nothing to do with it not fitting!

[MikeLMR]

its a stealth intercooler ... sneaky eh

[antnicuk]

brap brap brap......................  is that a technical term?,    it sounds like you may slipped a little bridge in there without us knowing!      If its just a streetport,  why does it brap?
