Easy fellas,
Thanks for the comments, it is indeed a Saph - Rhys's/Phils old engine runnin GT35R with .82 & Tial ext w/g
She's on a NMS base MAP at mo, but as soon as she actually goes i'll be bookin her in with Karl for a live MAP
Here's a crap pic of the actual car - bit imbarrassed of it at mo cos my brother painted the fibre glass front bumper & doors for me but got supplied with the wrong shade of grey !
So just waitin for him to do em again ! But won't stop me drivin it ! 
You can jus bout make out the carbon bonnet here, got off a good friend of mine (CossieCan) when he got rid his Saph.

Few more pic's for ya ! Bit rubbish tho & quite old now !
Apologies for the quality of pictures !
Carbon Bonnet, I love this thing & is so light ! Thanks Lee
Can jus bout make out the Rs turbo wheel fitted as no brakes were on & needed to move her into the garage ! lol
Carbon Rear Door Cards, fronts are jus cloth normal @ mo as the Carbon one's didn't have anywhere for me to put me elbow !
After some leather cards for the front !
The interior, jus after I fitted the original Remote Oil filter housing & run the braided hoses & bias valve for the brakes on the O/s. Dash was still to go in ! bit of a mess really ! lol
Made up some ally plates to cover the holes where the rear bench was, rear window switches & another one for the Oil filter. The Oil Filter has now been re-located to it's original position on the lump !
Centre consol in & i still had to blank the rear window switches at this point as there's nothin in the back doors (can see em in the pic above this one) ! lol You can see the brake line runnin down the side of the car now !
This was the boot, cut out the spare wheel well & mounted the Sump for the dry sump system there along with the fuel pumps, swirl pot & filter. Sump now gone, pumps & filter under the car & all thats left is the swirl pot in the boot !
This was early stages, just fitted the front & rear cross members & placed the loom in the bay ! Nothin else ! and very dirty ! lol
N/s view of the car with the brakes & coilovers on, exhaust on & the doors de-locked thanks to me good ol baby brother Had just fitted the side skirts which I got from Ronnie ! Cheers mate. You can also jus about see the pin's for the boot where the hinges used to be ! Savin all the weight I can lol
Now with the quick release fibre glass bumper fitted (not painted obvously lol) But by this point she was gettin there !
Back on the floor with the temp wheels on, think she sits just right & don't rub at all ! ! ! But i have lost teeth !
Front bumper painted with laguna splitter on, cut out centre & diddy plate. Think the paint shop could supply the correct Flint grey paint tho ? ? ? Nope ! You can see the Mocal Oil Cooler here, but been updated wit a black one & new Module.
And....
The original engine, 387hp @ the wheels built by Pj Motorsport. She actually went really well but I only drove her 4 times & managed to do a pair of rear tyres 
& spun a shell ! lol
But not all bad cos this prompted me callin Phil (Bosch-man) & doin the deal on the engine thats in the bay now ! ! ! Whoop Whoop !
Have to say a HUGE thanks to Phil as he's been nothin short of a superstar as I didn't quite have all the dosh & he let me have lots of bits too !
Thanks Phil

Hey hey thanks for the comments & Stav, where you get them piccy's from ? ? ? That was in SevenOaks if I remember correctly ?
Ronnie, yes bruv defo. Can you Pm me pic's & price please ? ? ? Mates rates yeah ? lol
Only need fronts !
Andy, we made it Basildon. Turned out the nice matchin shiney Allen Key bolts I used for the alternator bottom bracket weren't long enough to propa tighten up on & hence the alternator fell off ! Thanks to Lee (Cossiecan) for the help boltin it back on ! lol
Then it totally gave up while I was teachin an R34 Skyline a lesson on the 127. Stopped @ Basildon, charged the battery wit Stu's Scooby (lookin rude) & drove home on Battery power with no lights on etc ! She made it tho
Then yesterday I fooked the clutch rachet, changed it & managed to snap the resettin tab off the pedal box !
So gotta change that tonight - Oh how I've missed this ! ! !

lol maybe you'll make it to Central day NEXT year
Still think you should've stayed with the orange livery when switched shells, looking sweet though
How was Phils engine different to the original? Thought that was already circa 500bhp?
