PhilGT93 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 time for a little update, wasnt too sure what to do for the first thing but i thought might aswell get some better seats in... so i did managed to fit them in quite good time, after making some custom brackets for them also changed the exhaust from one built on the car to a japspeed cat back so sounds a little bit more fruity but i will miss it saying muff diver Quote Link to post Share on other sites
PhilGT93 Posted March 21, 2012 Author Share Posted March 21, 2012 that was a couple of weeks ago, since then its decided to die on me lost compression badly so it's currently sat on my ramps waiting for head gasket to be done,after taking manifold turbo and bits off decided that air con might aswell come out so thats gone and found a unplesant sight in the wastegate so bought a used turbo from azz and used the wastegate from the other to make one good one looks alot better now So .... have a full head set coming from id-workz, alredy have oil and fuel filter, timing belt, ngk heat range 7,zisco de-cat/screemer, filter relocation kit, mesh air filter and unknown stainless mani to go on after its rebuilt Think thats it for now ;) ill keep updated as it progresses Quote Link to post Share on other sites
