Default My 3dr engine bay restoration project completed!

I decided to do my lifters and change the colour scheme of the engine bay as the gold was making my eyes water

One thing led to another and basically the engine is in bits I am hoping to get the car done for April

Here’s how she looked under the bonnet


Once i got the tanks off i could see that the bay was quite messy and covered in bits of oil and crud.





Sooooooooooo I thought I’ll just remove this and that and a few other bits to make it easier to clean



Then the inevitable happened





While the engine is out i am going to renew a few seals and hoses




Loom coming out for a tidy up


Few bits being cleaned up






Tanks all polished back to stainless ready to have some bits welded then powder coated


Brackets ready for painting


Other small bits Cleaned up






Thought I’d cheer myself up and get some bits for when she goes back together

Custom stainless PAS cooler (cheers Lee @Fusion ) got a stainless bottom water pipe as well and stainless boost pipe but forgot to take pics


Thanks again to Lee for starting the comp housing off


Decent boost hose clamps


RS500 front Splitter


Refurbed cam cover from Gaz at Northwest cam covers top job


Carbon Cam belt cover looks really good in the flesh




Had these Grills kicking about too so they will go on


My BBS rims that will be refurbed black with a polished lip and then diamond cut face so the will look the same as the standard rims but a bit more bling


Cheers for looking and I’ll keep you updated
