the way I've set it up it will be at my perfect ride height at half way down the coiley so it can go down another half a coilover, so about 5" more but that would mean say on the floorpan with wheels off the floor

It wont be set for lowness or stance really, its more about track spec so sensible height with sensible stiffness

Thanks for the comment mate

damn i keep finding random shots of what I've been upto hahaha, this is a shot of a super minifin finned rear alloy drum, far superior than std steel mini items! yes i said mini they DO NOT fit a metro without work, however.. i have done it

Makes the track an inch or so wider but I'm sure that is only a minor side affect :p

This is a zoomed in shot of the pics above, you can kinda see from this shot alone that its decent welding I'm happy anyway

its about an inch wider :-) heres a pic:

the front of your car reminds me of.....

short circuit haha hmm cant remember the robots name oh wel haha well in that pic his face looks angry, so I'm happy with that :p

jonny 5 aliiiiiiive!

hahahahahaha, oh man! how the hell did i forget that :p legend in his own right!

and neilsonwheels IS buying a G40 at this moment in time and he knows it

you not suppose to say owt

Have you let something slip, POLOMON?

G40 neil_dubgt, oh yeah.

crap erm... i would edit the post and tell you to do so aswell neil but mr PSW knows now we shall have to ''deal'' with him :p

I have erased it from my memory.

men in black style with the flashy light thingy

Well... finally managed to get an update for you guys, not had a camera cable for a while but its all sorted now.

I've not done much (well I've done loads but just small things that arent worth taking a pic of like fitting fuel hoses braided hose here and there fuel pump e.t.c)

I've made a panel to fit in the centre console to house the boost adjusting valve and the fuel pump switch (has yet to arrive)

heres a pic of that and the turbo setup near completion, sory baout pic quality they were taken in the dark and the cars filthy

fuck yeah shotgun on first test run

turboooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo

brap tish tish tish tish tish

boost yo

that gearstick gator reminds me of a tractor

hahaha, worlds smallest turbo tractor ftw :p

Its getting replaced when the red centred bucket seats come, going to get a red gear gaitor

just worlds smallest turbo would do :p

actually there are much smaller blowers, a t2 will spool MUCH quicker which is tempting if you have std ish spec or a t25... I'm looking into modern equivelants though see what will be best for a 250 bhp engine

This car is way cool

250brake from an A series? i hope you have some mean ass drivetrain mods down below, or this is going to eat its self.

sorry to sound a right dick but if i knew how to get 250 bhp out of an a-series i think i would know what to do elsewhere

Nice prgress dude havnt checked this for a while!

getting raedy to plumb up the intercooler

I've bolted the cooler up on some bars I've made, cut the front panel up so it sits better and had to relocate the oil cooler hose around the front of the rad instead of behind as it caught the intercooler.

I'm in the process of relocating the washer bottle and battery to free up bay space aswell

From outside with the bonnet shut you cant see the relocated hose, this is what it looks like though:

The new turbo wing on and ready to be welded and widened:

And last but not least the engine bay as it stands:

this is comin along dude, i need to get myself up and see this :p

wheres ben gone :(
