Default My 2wd moonstone Saph Cossie
Though id get some pics of my saph up now I've finally finished it

I fully rebuilt the engine this year, along with getting some paint inside and out.
Just finished running it in so looking forward to getting it mapped and setup. just trying to decide wether to stick to the L8 ecu or spend the extra cash and go aftermarket.

Looks good. The white wheels and the moonstone paint are a nice combination.

Looks spot on mate






Apart from........


Red calipers look so Chav Refurb them black/graphite, they detract from the subtleness of the moonstone/white combo

But cosworths are chav cars

I get what you mean but i love em. only way i'd go subtle is if i fit ambers all round as there would be too many colours clashing.

Yeh i think one day i will make it look abit more original and go ambers. Got the boot badges but unsure wether to leave them off as i think it looks cleaner without.

tbh i can't remember what housing mine is without going to garage to look. just know mine was a T34 bored out to be a T38. where as there is the bigger housing T38 option. we prob have the same turbo.
