nice work goin on man .. love this car . would you not get the adjustable toms spoiler for it

he has no chance of getting it off lol I fitted it with some crazy industrial boat sealant and riv nutted the holes from the original livesports splitter and bolted it tight

I spent 6 years putting all those dents in this car Trisk just for you to remove them lol

Anyway have you run it on a dyno yet? I'm keen to see what the stock ct9 makes at 1.0bar she did go quite well

Nope. Although I reckon it's somewhere in the 160-185 region. Comparing it to my old v

It probably won't get dynoed with the ct9 turbo tbh

I thought about it. But I love the siloheutte of the car with the livesports spoiler

Also if I got one it would have to be genuine (to match the rest of the TOM's kit)

My best mate (flintygt) has a genuine toms spoiler. And that will be mine if he ever sells the car or changes spoiler. But weather i would ever change it I don't know

Started mocking up my oil cooler today. There was already a cut out for the cooler to sit in. Just need to get some bolts and massage the mounting points slightly

Had to cut the lower mounting points off to clear the bumper

The rest of the kit

Whats wrong with the one on it mate .. Lookin at the likes of this make me wanna go mad with mine but im gonna stay oem

Nothing, just a few hairline cracks. That I want to fix and make mint for completeness's sakes.

Cooler looks good there.

Cheers Lew

Looking good Tristan! I'm guessing this is all a bid to get it properly set up for track use?

Sort of, although I dont know when it will see a track, i fancy an track inspired build. Plus it looks bad-ass :p

did my old oil cooler mounts line up then? I remember trying to do a boso style gimme a mo I will look out a pic

well that was the original plan lol

They sort of lined up, the holes on the cooler need slighly enlongating so it sits flat.

I was originally gonna do the same, and have the lines go through the front bumper, then I realised it would wind me up to have to drop my oil if i wanted to remove the bumper from the car lol
