montanajr Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 Picked this bad boy up last week! Hasn't had much done to it except for blitz back box, de-cat, air filter and manual boost adjuster (blue tubing in the engine bay), a boost guage and even tho it says Italy, the lushess steering wheel ever! (Nardi i think!)Oh, and it has the lovely Recaro interior but the front two seats need a bit of mending! Oh, and some 15" Rota Subzero's in bronze.I love it! I have to wait til later this week until I can actually drive it! (waiting on insurance!)Fitting a Baileys BOV tomorrow, just waiting on some samco vacuum hosing before i fit it.What you peoples think?Cheers. Quote
Sparky Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 Looks good mate Got the same wheels as mine but mine are 16s and are gunmetal with chrome lip, they look very good though, deffo need to get it lowered though Quote
Idrees Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 Sweet, you gotta love the interior!! Lowering it should be next on your list me thinks! Quote
Nick_p Posted July 8, 2007 Posted July 8, 2007 Very nice car dude, am loving the Recaro interior. Quote

montanajr Posted February 23, 2008 Author Posted February 23, 2008 A few more updates! Fitted a WEPR fmic not too long ago and more recently an Autobahn stainless mani and front exit exhaust. So my "spec list" now reads as follows: Ultra Silicone LeadsNGK Iridium PlugsFront exit exhaustWEPR FMICAutobahn Mani (had it braced)Forge Dual Piston BOV Japspeed de-catRacing Hart CP-035 15" wheels - RearSpeedline 15" - FrontHKS Actuator @ 11psiKYB Excel G ShocksTein S.Tech SpringsHad it RR'ed a couple of weeks ago (before mani and exhaust were fitted) and it made 151hp and 137lb/ft @ fly running 11psi.

It does feel a bit quicker, hard to tell - need my new clutch in! hahawas it easy to fit the mani? im wondering , do you have to take the bumper off and all that because if you do id get a garage to do it for me lol Quote
montanajr Posted March 2, 2008 Author Posted March 2, 2008 Nah you can keep the bumper on! lolRadiator has to come out though. Took us 2 1/2 hours I'd say, wasn't too bad! Quote
seed Posted March 2, 2008 Posted March 2, 2008 Looking good there. How's the front exit exhaust? Loud? Quote
montanajr Posted March 2, 2008 Author Posted March 2, 2008 Quite loud! Not too bad on idle, but screams when on boost. I love it :angry: Quote

Sparky Posted April 5, 2009 Posted April 5, 2009 Rotary eh Why did you get rid of the FMIC?Some nice new mods Quote
montanajr Posted April 5, 2009 Author Posted April 5, 2009 Yeah, UKs first rotary EP82! Got rid of the FMIC ages ago, needed the money! Regret selling it big time! Hopefully getting it dyno'd tomorrow or sometime this week! Will let you know how I get on! Quote
montanajr Posted May 2, 2009 Author Posted May 2, 2009 Update:Got it on the dyno, but my manifold had 2 nasty cracks in it. Still managed to pull 129WHP. Since then I've bought a few bits/changed a few things:Tweaked the air intake, looks a bit like a cannon now lolSome pics of the cracked stainless:Bought a SPS mild steel manifold, wrapped it and fitted it!Some pics:]Wow! What a difference its made! My turbo spools up so much better than before and I have full boost at like 2.5k lol. Before it was like 3.5! (my mani was leaking). Feels more responsive as well! Very good purchase!Polished my RX cooler today:Came out pretty good I reckon!FMIC purchased. Bought this off a member on here, should be with me tomorrow! Update (01/05/09) FMIC is on! Went to DanEP82 Tuning in Eastbourne, the lad there did some cracking work! Woop!
