SiCaln Posted September 21, 2008 Author Share Posted September 21, 2008 Rich, it seems to tie the sides and centre of the car as one so when u go round a bend the car moves as one and chassis doesnt flex, felt good going round onto the M23 to Gatwickc-pillar bar is fitted mate, i ended up cutting the panel around the brace points, looks far cleaner than if I had done it the way you had, because underneath mine isn't painted lolill get some pics up when I can see lol Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SiCaln Posted September 28, 2008 Author Share Posted September 28, 2008 Been quite a busy week, last sunday i got the c-pillar in and thought that made a surprising difference to the handling of the car...then this weekend, myself and Rick fitted the Whiteline rear ARB, erm wow - handling on rails isnt even close! You need one of these!in the process, I also de-meshed the jam bumper, but im not sure i like it, either way it had to come off because i would need black in there, what do u guys think, what doesnt show up well in the picture is what u can see under the holeReceived these little beauties through the post on friday too, so my Weds are wearing some rather snazzy caps nowand one last thing, took apart my K24 kit so that i could wrap the mani, didnt get round to it time wise, but did end up painting the exhaust side black and intake side silver, looks so much better and the K-series turbos are so easy to take apart Quote Link to post Share on other sites

SiCaln Posted October 30, 2008 Author Share Posted October 30, 2008 Right the TRD window switch surround are in...and i think im gna change the real cf centre console for the TRD one, think it will look better overall, so i need some buttons so i can sell the cf centre console pleaseSecondly, also got the Blitz fire controller in, was gna put it at the end of the foot well, but carpet got in the way, so instead it is now under the passenger seat, heres hoping i never have to use it!

SiCaln Posted November 19, 2008 Author Share Posted November 19, 2008 hopefully this should be the lot for that fuel rail now!So that 2x 90 an6 bends for the route to the rrfpr and one adapter for when it gets there, two straight an6s to go to the fuel filter and one adapter for that to tie it all up, didnt want the red and blue one but its right at the back so im not fussed, same with the steel adapter, with about 50cm of pipe to cut to size for the two sides of the rail.
