Hmmm. Stunning is being very kind to be honest. Theres rust showing already in engine bay and front n rear bumpers aint great.

Bonnet been resprayed by previous owner (frostys boss)...badly too...hoping the polish n wax will cover it rather than highlight it!!
3hours of tcut, megs polish n kanuba wax later...

Car looks awesome mate. Cant wait to see it in person.
Very shiny! Smile
Dont look too close on saturday...

Roof is lovely n shiney...but it needs a machine polish...too many scratches
Looking tidy Doris, a big pat on the back mate for the effort applied Big Grin
Forgot I had a 'gti' boot trim that I threw some flock at many months ago...

Boot looks so much better Smile not that it will last long, being a boot n all Confused

Last clean tomorrow, replace NS wingmirror glass and fuel up for FCS! Smile

hoping may have time to fit my new 307 autodim mirror Smile
307 auto dim mirror wired in....working spot on...well happy.
Also got home after a boost tastic drive, parked up in the sun and left it running.
It gets up to temp, stat opens and fans come on when they should.
Laser thermo shows 88degree at top of rad and 38/39 at bottom with fans on...

Smile ThumbsUp Smile
Its all in the details...

Looking good fella, roll on show time Smile
Cracking job you have carried out there,well done ThumbsUp
Think you may of gone slightly OTT with the flocking but she is looking good.

too much?? Confused or too OCD?

(doing the matrix soon..........thinking of flocking the dash!)

well, FCS was a cracking day out...and the girlfriend didnt miss a beat!

Im spurred on now to get the GT2256V fitted, just waiting for some wages and I can order the Arduino stuff and start the headaches and late nights.

Only annoyance is the slight wheel wobble at certain speeds/loads. Very annoying

Anyway, she has never been SO clean, so thought I would pic whore a bit...

I love how it looks in monotone, so may use these or go out to a better location and take similar shots and get a multi canvass done, esp as the exterior is pretty much finished ThumbsUp
I may have just bought a GTB Wink

Race is now on to build a arduino controller and be ready for pugfest!
And the magic begins....

LOL.
I will, for lols, work out exactly how much fitting the GTB costs me. But more for amusement value!
less talk, more gtb

Smile
Im busy sorting parts, going over them with Ruan... Honeywell GT101 being ordered tomorrow as will arduino.

where did you fit your GT101 Tom?
[Image: kooyajerms.jpg]

2056vl dyno there...

380lb.ft torque, over 200hp from 2.7-5k.
Cant see it pal Undecided

(Guna need a new clutch!!)
I'm no expert but pretty sure you will lift the head with this? Or you already planed arp's?

Either way if you pull this one off it should be epic!
If I need ARPs I will use them....then I can rework a new head and custom manifolds at same time.

But I have some hope in these headbolts that I have fitted.
OOh exciting. I feel like a lesser human only having a GTA
You should Tongue

Race is on....who will fit theirs first!!! Tongue
I wont have mine fitted for a while. Think I might buy a welder depending on how much I earn this month though as the £100 sealey gasless mig looks like a good proposition.

You dont happen to have a template for the standard 2.1TD turbo manifold flange?
Theres two different manifold/flanges mate

I have a spare manifold and GT15 off a 2.1 though... So could make a template for you from that but not sure if it be the right one

Why on earth would it cause him to lift the head?
