Here's a work in progress of mine.



Mid engined bay above looks nuts!!!

 

Turbo? More info?

 

Loving all the bays, love s1cabs mid engined project and manifold, but the above wins every time for me! hopefully what mine will look like when its done, but with a few twists here and there.

Rob,

 

Thanks Rob

 

No worries mate, really is lovely! take it your friends with the zinc platers then

Rob,

 

that was already like that when i brought it mate turbocat (Giles) who i brought the car off did the lot ive been buying more nuts and bolts and decals lol just to finish it off
but i cant find the bolts for the top of the metering unit as you can see from the pic there abit rusty

 

Looks like you found a really good example mate, vary last of them too! (Hreg)

I did find some a while a go mate, i will go through my bookmarks and see if i still have it. Do a google for zinc platers as they will zinc plate them all to look like your dizzy cap/engine lifting eye and strut tops.

 

Thanks
sure have its one hell of a car its been very well cared for it was one of the very first h reg's was registered on 01/08/1990

yeah was thinking that but wanted to source some new ones if i could,
do you know if they were black,silver or zinc yellow as new?

 

cheers mate ! plenty more to be done yet

 

Have you got a build thread up mate? Ill have to keep my eyes peeled for ya, im only up the road in abbots.

Nice one mate would love to have a look in the flesh! gonna have a gander through your thread now

 

Mine,work in progress

 

My work in progress. Looks a bit better now/more finished but no pics at the moment

 

muz- not going coil pack

 

That's one of the future plans, Gus. I'm running a dizzy, greens and cable clutch to get it on the road, then I want to upgrade to Grey injectors, coilpack and hydraulic clutch in the summer.

 

sweet always need to leave a little room for tinkering

 

Update 267.3bhp

 

That bay looks well nice, what mods are on there Anttio?
Also where does the small vac hose go that come off the inlet and goes to the front of the car?

 

nice one i love the mobile phone upgrade think i moght install one into my bay aswell!

 

that is fabulous looking! is this a new car or the same one that was previously all carbon'd up?

No, that's the Twin's Dave & Stu. This ones all mine. I will admit though, I did draw inspiration from theirs.





I'll see if I can get some pics on Sunday of how it is now with the loom etc all in.

 

That looks the nuts

 

Dave had a hand in doing Will's engine bay as well

 

That really does look so sood - clean clines, no clutter, just 'minimalist' and functional. Love it !

 

What throttle body did you use puss? look MFI??

Rob,

 

MUZ is your series 2 and genuine RS? whats the two bolts on the suspension tops?

 

thats just for the aftermarket fixed top mounts.

 

I think Dave and Will both use MFI throttle bodies with XR2i remote ISCV

 

Antti O - I love it, nice spec sheet too! Would love to get mine to that stage of tidyness and power. Nice 1!

Muz, the tubular on yours looks cool! As do the Yellow Brembo's in your Sig!

Twin's bay is awesome, i must find time to look through the re-build thread of his!
