Yeah guys I'm not too happy either. My brother's gearbox failed, so I spent yesterday evening taking that off in sub zero temperatures.
It is funny though, how it got to this point without him mentioning it. No oil FTMFL  But as for mine, the job list stands at: Oil feed (got one finally, yay!) Oil return (fits, just needs a slight "tweak") Intercooler pipes (sorted, just needs clamps fitting) Put subframe back on Exhaust (meh) Air intake pipe (in post, needed for the MAF) Drain and refill gearbox (lost a load by pulling the driveshaft out. schoolboy error) *MAY* be in a position to start it tonight, but can't go anywhere due to my brother's car being on axle stands with no gearbox outside the garage.

Right then!
Saturday will see this rolling! I'm 3 mikalor clamps, an intake pipe, a charged battery and some wheels away from starting up and getting rolling  Would start her up now, but there's nothing left in the battery

17-01-2013, 11:31 PM
Scrappy's initially, then longer term, imma get a lenght of 3" and weld up a custom straight through to BFO empty backbox with a 4" tip, OR a big midbox/cherrybomb, then split it to two 3" pipes for one either side

IT'S BEGUN!!!
Yep. Sounds epic, have to drop the subframe back off though due to a slight clearance issue resulting in no bottom engine mount Video to follow. So awesome!!! Welding and fabrication projects undertaken, contact me for more information.
20-01-2013, 02:59 PM
Now to get the fuel in past 3500rpm
20-01-2013, 04:20 PM

Hooray!
Today my rev counter started working so I discovered on my 56 i'm hitting 20psi by 2200rpm. AMAZEBALLS! Enjoy it sir, they're chronically spooly!
20-01-2013, 08:50 PM
Result!
So, is it coming to work tomorrow or not? And how was the clutch? Daily Slag: http://306oc.co.uk/forum/thread-3849.html

Not coming to work until I have an exhaust (asking for it really, there's NOTHING off the back of the turbo
) and air intake. Clutch was fine, but bear in mind I had no MAF plugged in.(20-01-2013, 08:05 PM)cwspellowe Wrote: Hooray! Yeah, spools very nicely And MY GOD does it sound good. I'll go for a straight pipe first methinks, then I'm going twin tailpipes at some point

22-01-2013, 11:03 PM
So this evening I made a downpipe, so I now have an exhaust!
With any luck, my intake piping will arrive tomorrow, so I can get driving (finally, yay!) Can't wait

Pfft, elbow out the turbo > open air ftw.
I should really fix that, all you can hear is turbo whistle even when cruising haha
23-01-2013, 09:55 PM
It LIVES!!! I'll get some video footage tomorrow or something, all I got this evening was a short clip of me missing 3rd and hitting 5th

Still buzzing after that drive
