almost ready for fcs supercharged amazon vts.

[Lippy]

sweet dude, didnt even know you were doing this today!?! ah well that leaves friday free to fit my B & M and maybe take a look at my wiring

I think raising the rear 20mm was deffinately a good call, dont get me wrong the car handles like its on rails but might be a little less bumpy now?

Engine looks like an angry little bastard sat there, looking forward to seeing it friday

Stunning thread m8
Where did you get them shiny engine bolts from?

[Sophia_Bush]

nice those mounts will make a nice difference

[Anthony]

Wow what a good read just read it all from page 1. This is going to be a animal when finished huh?! Really really good work. I'm so jealous that you and Lippy live close and both have a passion for saxo's no one around me is interested lol.

Where did you get those door pulls from mate they look the nuts also.

Anyway good progress keep at it!

[AndySAXOp]

O got the fast road ones?

Why did u buy from spoox? They are more expensive from there.

And yes that how they fit have to drill it out to 12mm.

Looking good dude.

i didnt buy them from spoox m8, got them from here at a very good price, never used. was lucky lol, was going to buy them new directly from the guys that make them.
cheers m8 competition ones i think they are, very solid

[adzvtr]

got home from work today, and decided before i go back for the evening shift i wanted to fit the mounts, impatient lol as have day off tomorrow,

anyways fitted




and yes i know, the gearbox is crappy lol, its only in there for engine to be in place for sorting the wiring so ignore it please ha ha

also i decided to try a bit of colour inside let me know what u guys think?



ignore the mess everywhere, it is a build after all



thats my progress for the day, tune in soon for more lol

[Lippy]

Yeah i'd like to do that sometime! Mounts good nice and solid mate good work.

[adzvtr]

small update,
decided that i would need a boost gauge and oil pressure would be a good one to have, so ordered them,

and decided to build a pod to fit in the center vent,

now im not that gr8 with fibre glass, but lippy is away so thought i would give it ago.
anyways



the idea tricky getting them to face right, but i got there



all done now to fit to dash, hoping it still fits



it fits and still tilts, just awaiting the oil pressure gauge now and get them wired up.
progressing swimmingly now, only gotta get through next month then the charger will be in place.

[raunchz]

Looking sweet !!!

Definitely coming along nicely !!!

You must be eager to get a charger bolted on !

[3cott]

Nice
