  • I'm torn with this, what you have created looks stunning and must have cost big money however I'm a purist at heart and I like stock and g40s are rare stock so I'm torn between what looks stunning and

  • Alright kiz, I've just bought a Breadvan shell minus dash, and was wondering just how difficult both of you dash swaps were? Not a such the shaping but the updating of the internals and stuff such a

Is your garage stil laid out as it was? With the units on the left still? If so fair play to be able to turn a car over in that much room lol

I'm guessing your using the 1w crank with an overbore or something I'm probably wrong though, if it's an external slave that would

Be simple enough I guess.

Nah I sold all the 1W stuff as I wanted to keep the original engine in the car. I was going to build the 1473cc engine and had all of the pistons, block, crank etc.

It's an external slave yes. Not to difficult to incorporate and although it took an initial couple of prototypes it's been trouble free for 4yrs on the car.

Jake - I blew it up driving the car:-( I found out what the bang was on the A14 now, must have clipped a brick or something as all the oil leaked out and it blew up on the way back from work about 3weeks after

Absolutely zero chance of this! engine is in pieces, shell is on a spit.

Going to have some free time to get stuck in and get her back on her wheels.

Done a few nice touchs to the bay and a change to the driveline so i can run it lower, wheels wont actully go up any further without cutting out the wheel wells and I'm not ever doing anything like that!

Interior has been revamped so that the inside paint is as good as the outside, a nice new gear shifter and some G40 cup racing pieces refurblished to complete it. still toying with the idea of putting a front cage in it and going through to the turrets- still in the measuring and lining up stage.

Got another project aswell which i think may be sold now due to time constraints:-(

Yes lad 8-)

Shame about the other project, but this one has always been your baby. Better to have your main project done (not that this will ever be properly finished in your eyes lol), than to get side tracked and never get this one done.

Lots of love, someone who constantly gets sidetracked and has left their main project abandoned for years :lol: xx

Yes kiz! Good to see a more positive attitude towards it!

Ps, tub it! Drift spec for lows! Haha.

Hopefully see you there anyway Kiz ! sounds like more good things to come!

Dude this is lush!!!
