Certainly is! Definitely got some work to do lol

Spent today finishing off the mounts :) grinding a few bits off and making them nice and smooth! Also decided to paint the starter motor the same colour so it's all colour coded together with the gearbox!

That's it for now.....hoping to have the bay painted by 2nd weekend in Feb!

Harry

Think I'm more excited than you are lol! Very nice

Haha cheers man! Haven't driven it for ages, can't wait to drive it again!

Harry you running a stand alone ecu? or standard remapped? as I'm wondering if you meant by de-imobilizing the car as I'm running Megasquirt and just not running an immobilizer as it wont recognize the immobilizer.

I'm going to run standard management just re-mapped, got it de-immobilised already so it will work with my key etc :)

No idea if it means I can't actually run an immobiliser now? I thought its just so you can use any key etc?

Remember to get me measurements so I can make you some forged pistons

Loving the progress mate, haven't touched mine in a while. Getting ready to move into a MASSIVE unit so shes been put to the side whilst we sort out for the big move and get it all prepared :)

I'm thinking summertime

P.s. loving the grey :)

Paint work look very nice still alot more to do and with other jobs to do it will be a close call to get it done for.......
