Next on was a bit of ancillary. Gen 3 turbo direct from speedvision, and yes I got caught with the import tax 🙈. Red intercooler piping to go with my overall colour scheme. gfb boost controller, new genuine dizzy cap and rotor, new iridium plugs and red magnecore ht leads. Made, tested and confirmed by carol herself, thank you carol! Thank you carol, cracking job!

It wouldn’t surprise me Sam, the GT’s are lovely looking! Next to be done was sorting the interior a bit. There was no rear interior, no carpet and a mismatch of front seats. Got hold of a near complete mk1 interior including a dash that was in better condition. So, every trim was removed and replaced with the interior I got after a good clean. Feeling much nicer inside was time to head out for a blast with a mate to the purbecks. Cracking drive and even got the better of the 33 coming off a roundabout for a se

So the time has come to take the engine out of my GT which means, I should and want after a long time to get some sort of a progress up for people to see and comment. January 2015 I picked up my mk2. Needed a lot of love but the price and location was cracking for me. A couple weeks later some changes were made. Standard exhaust and nur spec back box (with massive hole in 😢) were swapped for complete Japspeed cat back to go with the unknown decat already fitted. Cracked standard exhaust manifold swapped for Jperformance unit and, eBay intercoole

I will be ringing td in the new year to order a few other bits so I’ll ask if they can help. Couldn’t see them on their site, just the standard box ones which as you mention are different. Fingers crossed mike can source them. cheers for the help nick

Very nice BMX, outstanding work 👌🏻

10 year challenge dominated, looks spot on! Surprised to see standard struts still?
-
Top man, thanks Toby. I bought the car without air con so wasn’t aware those were associated. The evaporator was on the bin list 👍🏻
-
So, engine is out for a standard rebuild/bay freshen up. I’m aware the the evap can be binned. Question for those that have been here, what else can be deleted to lessen the load on the appearance? I’m only going for speed vision ct9, wepr external gate. All inputs appreciated Thanks, Tom
-
Oh, and the gearbox was the first refresh that time allowed

Exciting times for me. Bay as it was, bay as it is. Will post in hopefully a couple months time with an after!

Thanks for the reply. Tuning developments slipped my mind, they actually have a description of what hoses are included, in which are the ones I’m after. Think I’ll be ordering from them. thanks again!

Hi all, hoping someone with experience can help. I'm looking at buying the Roose motorsport ancillary hose kit. Does anybody know if the coolant pipe at the back of the engine and, heater hoses are part of the set? Many thanks, Tom

After a nearside window motor for EP82 many thanks, Tom

Bought my gt with no headliner in it. I’m wondering if the headliner is a complete unit on these or if it’s just fabric glued up? Any help appreciated, Tom

Seen again in the same area, if you’re not on this forum then why not!

Thank you all for the info, I got a little excited when I saw a positive towards the aem but, it seems maybe their name is better than there true product? I will only be running a speed vision ct9, external gate, but would like to keep true tabs on what is happening. The plx is an American product from a brief search? Is there a UK distributor? Thanks again, Tom

Opinions and experience with wideband kits, which are good and which should be avoided? Many thanks, Tom

Anyone with experience down south would be greatly appreciated, good or bad

I shall bear you in mind thanks fiske, you’re not a silly distance away from me. Won’t be looking at doing so until mid year I expect.

Sorry to add to this but struggling to renew myself. Had an email for renewal but when following the links it says my payment method isn’t accepted, even though there wasnt any option of payment method nor any way of changing it. Thanks for the help in advance

Hey all I am putting plans in place to take the engine out of my GT for a basic rebuild/tidy up along with changing to external wastegate. Once this is done I would like to put some mappable management in place. Question being, does anyone from the southern region have any recommendations for a mapper and what ECUs they are familiar with? many thanks, Tom
