Default my 2wd cossie wip

thought it was about time i started a wip thread on the cossie.

so here goes...

this is how i got it...









i wasn't exactly happy when i collected it as it wasn't anywhere near as mint as i was told it was, but i didn't treck it halfway across england to come home with nothing so i gritted my teeth and took it regardless

as soon as i got it home i took it to get m.o.t'd (which it failed ) and started ripping the gash vinyl's of it and put my new comp mo's on... (i know, im a sheep lol)







then shortly after came a pro alloy rs 500 intercooler and black rocker cover and carbon cam cover:... thanx gav & rsnissan & xr4x4rs





i'v now also changed all the brake caliper as they wer focked, and changed the disc's while i was there... but i'll be changing the front again shortly for some ap 330mm jobby's


saturday i trecked to basinstoke to collect my new carbon bonnet, and fitted it yesturday, well happy with it, love carbon! ...thanx jay/, tis awesome





and finally a few goodie's i have left to fit:

alloy header tank with braided hose for the turbo cooling (as the turbo doesn't have any cooling atm)... thanx saphycossie-adz


alloy oil seperater tank and alloy oil catch tank (need to have them re-painted befour fitting).... thanx jay/


gaz coilover's.... thanx wellers wheels


and some length's of samco



next on the to get/ to do list is:

carbon boot and spoiler
carbon grill
get it running properly
get it dyno'd
sort heater matrix
sort fuel pump out
get it all blown over... might get it done a different colour ?(
buyy and fit ap 330mm front brake setup
mod headlight and fit a HID kit
fit new turbo heatshield
+ a few other bit's an peice's

that's it for now, i'll be updateing as i go, but what d'you think so far?
be gentle, im still learning lol
