Mmm i like that a lot!

this is fucking immense!

Its near perfection, sick colour and best engine.

Only thing that would be better, is if it were a MK2 loon.

thats nice mate love the dash gettin mine done soon. had it on a rolling road yet?

Very nice, love how OEM and simple the out side looks, only critisism is that the backbox hangs a little low, otherwise beautiful!

cheers guys

i know, its booked in to pro-speed in Cardiff on Tuesday for some adjustments,

the only reason its like that is that it was made off the car using measurements i took from underneath so it isnt going to be perfect lol

tell you what though, its the most fun I've ever have on the road, soo much fun on the welsh coast roads

Glad to hear it, I am very jealous! My car does'nt hang about, but it just doesnt have the feel that a G40 does, any ideas on the power output?

How much do you think the whole conversion has set you back? I'm sure it has been worth every penny though.

not sure on power but it does feel quick, its plenty quick enough for me (for now lol)

as for cost, got the whole engine conversion for £800 with all the upgrades apart from the 4-2-1,

but i renewed shit loads of stuff and haven't really thought of adding all the costs up, don't really want to as it would probably depress me lol

but definitely worth all the hours in my garage and the money all day long :)

Sleeper..... I like it...

gave it a wash and a polish and it looks sooo shiny :p

subframe

enjoy

Thats an absolute beauty mate, a credit to you.

Tidy mate, very tidy indeed.

this thing is amazing! pulls like a train... needs to go lower though :)

cheers guys,

had some new tyres fitted yesterday and omg its like its glued to the road,

with all the suspension mods its just soo planted in corners the ppp subframe gets a huge thumbs up from me

still got a load of jobs to do;

.change the fuel filter

.get alignment done

.get underneath and tension the charger belt properly by adjusting the alternator

.renew the engine mount rubbers

.get the flocked front and rear door cards and parcel shelf fitted (when i get them back from my mate who's flocking them)

so I've got a busy weekend ahead of me

What a beauty! This is stunning!

Perfection!!!
