Default My 3 Door finally breaks cover ! .....PICS !!!!

I,ve finally got my 3 Door to a stage where i,m happy for people to see it.I,d like to say a BIG thank you to Cath and Reegan ( my wife and son ) for putting up with my constant visits to the garage !!!!!!
I,d also like to thank Swerve,Steve@RSX,Spadge, Stu@MSD,SteveRST,Steve Scott and all those others who,ve helped me get this far
Please be gentle with your comments as my wife reads this and i need her to think i,ve been spending our money wisely

Alright Gaz!

Lovely car mate, you have been busy! Was it standard when you bought it? Not keen on the ECU cover though mate....

Catch up with you soon at one of the meets

Ian.

Thanks again chaps for all the kind words.The spec on the car is basically a Level 6 ECU with a stage 1 chip.4x4 Intercooler,a bit of head porting by Mountune some years ago,Konis, Chassis Dynamics springs,new discs,RS wheels ,Autometer Gauges,a few of my own Carbon Fibre bits and LOTS of new standard bits !
The pictures are actually quite kind to the car so future plans for the car include a bit of paintwork and maybe,as the engines a bit slappy ( like most 3 doors) a new bigger power engine based on a 4x4 bottom end.The car has only done 56000 miles and the last guy ( 2nd owner) had it for 13 years !


Ian3dr and Darrone3dr......The ECU cover is a first off .I am thinking about producing these and have basically put it on to gauge reaction.I will probably end up putting the standard one back on as i look at carbon all day


Porkie..........The wheels came about as a result of me trying to find something a little bit different to tidal wave of MOs thats currently sweeping the country.Something that you may well have started???.................Oh and by the fact that as i work for Jaguar Racing (AKA Ford) i get RS wheels at huge discount
