[Louis123]

[spike2002]

Full respray? Any repairs?

Just a blow over in same colour as car and fill rear quater has crese in it and both back corners under bonnet have lil dents prob other lil dent hear and there aswell how much would you charge

[MarkTD]

Great project, looking forward to reading more about it.

Was it hard to convert the vent into a holder for the boost gauge & would you be interested in making me one if I paid you, if I can't do it myself?

Rough estimate is about £800 without looking at it, and taking into consideration about the repairs that need doing mate.

Phase 3 front bumper has arrived today, will get pictures up later

[Louis123]

Before:


After:

[Louis123]

Right the car is about 70% done now, all paintwork is done and polished, fitted my ph 3 front bumper now, and also put the bonnet badge back on, also fitted my other drivers vent pod I made also the new heater matrix is now fitted ( what a tw** of a job ) but no leaks now and the heaters work, not that there needed in this heat.

It was rather hot yesterday so decided to clean the car and polish her, a few snaps of how she is at the moment..

PICTURE HEAVY! BE WARNED




That's the new pod.






















Thats it for now,

Plans next are;
- Refurb alloys in gloss black
- De middle box and de back box and replace with straight pipes
- Fit new wind deflectors
- Aero flat wipers
- Source a FMIC
- Turn fuel and boost up some more
- Lower it 60mm! ( needs to be done ASAP! )

Let me know what y'all think

[ash23]

looking nice tere mate good work.

[mark_airey]

No idea how I have missed this, it must have been the word "blaze" in the title

Epic project though man! awesome job with the paint, it needs a hard hit with the lowering stick and a bosch pump once the wheels are done

Cheers mate, yeah really needs lowering! Need to get that done ASAP as said lol

[Dave]

Very nice looking car mate! Loving the black/gold combo it works very well actually... as you said needs abit of a drop front and back, and much much more engine work needs to be done! get that boost wound up hehe

[Ricky]

Never seen one riding soo high! Mines much lower..

Looks good, although not a fan of tinted rear lights.

[Louis123]

Yeah I like the tinted lights as it goes with the black and gold theme going on, wheels going gloss black soon with a full refurb!

[Louis123]

Wind deflectors arrived today, so fitted them after I finished work, couple of pictures:






Also ordered some carbon fibre wrap of eBay, going to have a go at doing a few bits inside the car, vents, centre section etc etc..

Ordered some xenon white LEDs for the speedo and clock lights, they have arrived just haven't got around to fitting them yet

[Louis123]

Also a little problem if anyone could help, when I changed the heater matrix the other week and put it all back together, the lights for heater controls and also the temp gauge light are now not working. Could this be a connector or would it be bulbs?

[Louis123]

Look what I've got





Going to have a bash at interior bits with carbon, anyone any ideas what I could do I've got in mind vents and centre section up to now

[4WayDiablo]

id leave it at vents and centre section, might be overkill after that, althought an idea ive not really seen is the interior of the dials, the silver bit in ph3surrounding needles

[Louis123]

Don't know which bit u mean mate

[declantg]

the surround for the dials

[Louis123]

The plastic one held it by 4 Torx bolts

[4WayDiablo]

The plastic one held it by 4 Torx bolts

nope take the dial unit out and split the glass from plastic

[Louis123]

Ohhhh I get you

[puglove]

looking real good now i remeber the start of this on .net has really come on. need to get some lows though

[Louis123]

cheers mate yeh will be getting lowered very soon!

[Louis123]
