All welded up, de-holed, thin layer of bog for my rough grinding marks, and ready for a coat of primer...... And the compressor is not playing
engine bay in primer, i'll let it harden up and rub it back on thursday if i get another day off, should have a base coat on it thursday as well
also finally made a spanner for the shock shafts and got my cusco camber tops, t3 upper hats, eibach 8kg springs and koni shocks in.. had a play around with the lca's and tops
Brakes finally showed up, I waited four weeks and then decided I will send them a message, they turned around and said "oh sorry we forget to send them out" so anyways another week and they showed up, gonna laugh if I end up gettin two sets lol
They were a piece of piss to fit, only trouble I ran into was the original caliper bolts were touching the rotors by a pubic hair, nothing the flap disc couldn't fix.. didn't end up painting the engine bay as I've got no money and I need to hire a jet heater..
painted my engine bay today (:
really shitty pic of the new colour
White with purple glitter? So awesome!!
comming along great man
thanks guys, new motor is here, was going to drop it straight in but i need new engine mounts.
Holy shit, new engine looks the goods
Put my engine bay back together today, and started making up a radiator support for it, I was planning on making a completely custom one but I thought I will just base it off the original one, I welded on some plates each end of it after grinding the bits of I don't need.... And that about as far as I got lol... Going to drill the holes for it tomorrow and weld nuts onto it so that I can remove it when ever need be, and smooth it off etc.. I will have to box it so that its a bit stronger, after all its going to be holding a fair bit of weight
ordered some cusco engine mounts and I have to wait for them to show up so I can drop the motor in and then start mounting the radiator, oil cooler and intercooler.
Then after that I've got to get some power sorted and fuel line's, then start the big girl
Also put the wiring loom, coils and ecu under the dash
