Stunnin job so far mate, keep it up!

[Sophia_Bush]

lol Ad you lot will have to wait for mine will be at least summer before engine will be built as taking the sensible route getting bits on a monthly basis to spread cost.

You guys talking about the lower hose or top one? either way why not just get a alloy/copper joiner in there?

ye the lower one, the s hose already has an alloy joiner as its a 2 part hose but its 2 short for the rad.
the vtr hose is a one piece, so i thought i get one and chop part of the s hose, use the joiner and we have a good hose. in theory lol.

thats how i have done it m8, on a monthly basis, only i blew the engine with nos so had to take it off the road lol

The one piece r hose wont stretch far enough to get round the corner and through the hole let alone get to the rad, pretty pissed off with spoox to be honest, which piece of the hose are you using? would be great if you could send me whatever you dont use! cheers mate

[adzvtr]

the thing is the s hose fits from back of engine round and pops out the hole by the rad, its just a little short. u want the s hose then use a bit of the r one. maybe i should gt another s hose, instead send it u and u send me a length of the r hose lol

[Mathias]

Confused now! haha

well whatever you think will work mate im happy to go for that!

small update. the wheels are back on the car.
she will be loaded to a recovery truck on friday morning.
and will be taking a short trip to my new house.
where she will have the comfort of a garage for the rest of the build.
also waiting for some new braided brakelines and a 23cm 2 port mc.
not much but i am moving lol

[adzvtr]

its been a while since i have updated.
i have been busy moving.



all loaded up ready for the move.
which meant having to put the new rubber on.

yokohama advan ad08s, should make a good allround tyre.

anyways. it didnt take long for me to start messing with the car again.
once the car was settled in out the weather, new house has garage woop.

i made some brackets to hold the rad in place.



with the rad in place me and lippy worked out the space needed for the charger cooler and oil pipes. and a solid bracket was made.

and the oil cooler fitted.

oil tank with inline filter plummed in.

next is the cooler, now the big one is cool, but the smaller one is perfect for where it sits and piping wize, wat do u guys think?????
and in the new garage.

bigsmall
as u can see the small cooler fits nicely in the mouth of the bumper


its getting there now, and the car is finally clear inside aswell.

[adzvtr]

boost pipes and water pipes ordered and on way to. not to farr off now.

[Andy_K]

Coming on. Very neat on the oil filter and bottle setup

Tried and tested m8.

well today i fit my new brake lines and the 23cm mc deceased the rear brakes, and bled the system. the 10mm spacers arrived aswell and the vts alloys clear the six pots fine also sorted the handbrake. so the braking system is now sorted.
tomorrow i will be taking the engine back out, as i have spoke to john and my gearbox is heading off to be rebuilt and quaife fitted, and its coming back with the new clutch. 6 paddle helix.
while the engine is back out, i will be sorting the new fuel lines, grommeting where the loom comes through the bulk head, and where the power steering pipes go into the car.and filling and bleeding the power steering system.
so busy day planned tomorrow.
