Socks Posted March 13, 2010 Author Posted March 13, 2010 Well fook me! lol.Was planned for wednesday but i had to help a mate move out! So got delayed till last night!Started at 8pm and i got home for 1:30am and we aint even finished yet! lolJust broke off to have some dinner and post this up on here for you guys to perv Im using a mix and odd clips atm as my order of mint cool clips havent arrived yet!I had to trim the pipe that goes onto the turbo by about 15mm to get it to fit perfectly! Ontop of that electrical tape to space out the alloy pipe to fit the filter perfectly too! Its mint now but its somthing toy tuning could have sorted out really!Looks good tho Since i had to relocate the dump valve, i had to get a reducer pipe made up by Roose Motorsport (down road from me) so that fits perfectly! Longer piece of vaccum tubing was needed too My custom intercooler brackets, me and my dad made them up, the ones that came with it were crap anyways and the whole kit came off badassracer69's starlet, when he had his crash it broke every mount....he tie raps are just used to support the intercooler while we fabricated the angled ones, looks good now tho Last addition to the car is a new breather filter, il probably get a catch tank at some point but until then this will go over the new hole Also, forgot to mention ive removed all the air conditioning, pump, rad, fan. etc Weighs a fookin ton! My N/A ep91 non a/c aux belt arrived so all is sorted Im waiting for a friend to finish work at 6pm, then im heading back over to his unit to get my bumper trimmed and refitted then ill be all done!Coming togther now Quote
Socks Posted March 14, 2010 Author Posted March 14, 2010 The bumper still needs a bit more trimming but ive just got home again! Its gone 1am... again! grrrrGoes so much better and looks so much ruder now Quote

Amjad Posted March 16, 2010 Posted March 16, 2010 FMIC and wheels look lush! Quick question; how did you get the wiper arms off?! I tried undoing the bolts and pulling the arms off, but didn't wanna pull too hard & break them Do they pop straight off? Or do you need to release the springs or anything? Quote

I tried undoing the bolts and pulling the arms off, but didn't wanna pull too hard & break them Do they pop straight off? Or do you need to release the springs or anything?Unbolt them and u need to wobble them a bit to gettem off! If they have never been off before they can be a pig! There pretty strong tho so dont be afraid to use a bit of force From my bedroom window luvin it! Quote
