well after yesterdays fire i took the old crap out and replaced it with the new parts



as you can see the old rad is half the size of the new one



and mocked up the intercooler set up

 

Fire? what happened.

 

It'll probably be less than that with all the pipework and the size of the intercooler (again imo)

Hopefully he'll be happy with it for 6months then when eatons deal with BMW runs out the prices for chargers should go down

 

Been bodgeing the rad up with rad weld for the past few months so the cars been over heating a bit fans been running on constant I was parking up at work yesterday and just seen the smoke my ford rad fan went on fire quickly put the flames out but the fan was goosed

 

before



after



ball ache is an understatement will be fine tuning them tomorrow

 

Daylight pic for you guys

 

Bought me some silvertec bulbs today to clean up the rear end



Also been chopping bits out of the front end in prep for my oil cooler and intercooler

 

My new megasquirt ecu

 

just got my loom for the megasquirt and a refund on the epic failed delivery of the hks blow off valve

 

7th set of drop links purchased think I'm going to make some next time

 

That's because you keep buying cheap pattern parts some time genuwine is best try ringing graham at cpe a ring for bits

 

this is the 2nd set of pattern parts I've bought i do usually get genuine ones but give up after the 5th set i get discount from ford as it is

 

MUCH better!

 

cheers

 

Maybe you need to try a short pair cause your lowered?

 

That's why I was thinking of making some rose jointed ones

 

loom for the ecu has turned up pre labeled but one small issue half have fell off :/

and the new drop links are on

 

well just made a random purchase



before



during



after

 

pic of the hid's



and finally got around to fitting the oil cooler today



sleeper style



also chopped out a load of plastic ready for the intercooler to be mounted

 

looks a cracking project this

 

Cheers mate

 

eBay special sandwich plate died so a quick call later and I had a mocal one in the post



Fitted it earlier today and everything seems good

 

Where the supercharger pics??? Or links if you ain't got it yet???

 

Should be on the last page I'll upload them later tonight if they are not

 

 

shiny new stuff has arrived my new ecu and a water injection system

 

Coming along nicely there pal.
Will sort out a date for you to service the ST. Only date I have chance at the moment is day before RS Central

 

Ok cool mate I'll see if I'm free lol

 

well with it being a nice afternoon i thought i would bolt up the intercooler to the car to see where its going to hit etc



also a pic in its new sleeper home



the grill is going to need a bit of milling in places but should be all good once done

 

I'd love to hear this roaring about when done!

 

Cracking thread !!!!

 

Aye should be a funny little fez

Thank you

 

nice, thats the same cooler i used on my ZT build, very minimal cutting needed on the back of a mk5 bumper aswell

 

Looks awesome

 

yeah i used to have full lot cut out on my mk4

cheers

 

Guess what turned up a month late :/



So now I have 2 lol

 

haha ace, oh well i guess you have a backup :P

 

Indeed

 

well just spent a fortune today first things first I'm insured for another year so with that debt out the way i thought i would treat myself to some bits for the car

firstly my radio has been dying for a long time so its about time i got an upgrade



then i thought i would get back onto the job at hand and sort out something for the supercharger so i ordered a few samcos to plum the pipework to in green

 

good stuff buddy, stereo looks nice
