Hi all,

Havent updated this post very much on here recently due to working all hours under the sun (and moon in fact!!!!) ! Been working on the xr2 in the workshop where time allows and made a good bit of progress in the last couple of weeks....

Here are some recent pics...








The clocks that are being fitted this week! (Honda S2000...)




Hopefully will be fired up in the next week or so. Fuel Swirl pot and Intercooler should be here this week then theres just a bit of pipework to be done!!

Cheers
Chris

Quick update, intercooler is now finally fitted with all black pipework and hoses. Brakes have been bled, bucket seat now fitted and reverse opening bonnet now fitted and looking spot on!!!

Here are some pics! Hinges need to be painted but all is good except for that. My main concern fitting them was how far forward the bonnet will go upon lifting, but its only a couple of inches so no worries there!! Also the hinges are strong enough to hold at any height, and i can lock them at a certain height if needbe! Pics below along with intercooler and bucket seat pics!
