Drove for a while on stock twins til a piece of my ARC intake got sucked in and shattered the blade....so went from one thing and led to another....

not running yet but nearly there booked in at WGT on 18th march to finish off an mapd.

my first actual pictures of the car on this forum so let me know what you think.
if you want a tech spec i can list it up.

any advise appreciated.

- yep stillway oil coolers and Revolution water housing - i had to use the RE Amemiya AST cus the Revolution one doesn\'t come with a pressure cap only a screw on top

If you don\'t mind me asking where from and how much did you get the revolution ast for? Only ever seen them on rhd.
Thats an odd one on the pressure cap, maybe they expect you to have one on the rad.

Looks like it will be extremely nice. Don\'t worry about posting Progress Pictures. Always good to see how things are going :D

Shouldn\'t you just fit the stock ast cap on the revo tank?

Great work!!! Nice to see soemone appreciating quality parts rather than the ebay bodge ups!
Buy lots of heat proofing and fit it asap!
Dont bother routing coolant through TB.
You have some unnecessary caps on LIM.
Try and duct oil coolers.
Thats all I can recommend from those pics.

no unfortunately the revo tank has a screw on top so original ones don\'t fit.

where should i place the heat wrapping? heat shield is on the exhuast housing.
i have remaining heat wrap from the kit - but unsure where to place it all.

just purchasing the oil cooler ducts from the 99spec models.
could you explain the routing of the coolant? i was going to run my revo tank to the RE amemiya AST and route that to the coolant and bottom of rad. is this correct?

thanks for the help!
