I was supposed to fit my boost controller today but I sprayed a few bits last night and thought that I'd fit them first. However I got a little excited and went into one !! So I didn't get round to fitting my boost controller in the end.

 

Before

 

After

 

Not sure what I want to do with the fan shroud or belt covers yet.

 

I'm thinking of having the belt covers chrome dripped, but not sure about the fan shroud, may hold out for an SE custom made jobby :D.

not bad for a days work.

looks great

:) :)

I like it

gonna start on mine after all the body mods are done. Think I will leave the cam belt covers off it looks better imho.

Paul

Top work mate, looking really cool. Think most of you guys are going to see my motor very grubby this coming weekend.

 

Was going to clean it today but went to the pod, car is going upto SE Wednesday night for Pete to do some optimsation of the ECU mapping, in preperation for Sunday :p

 

Might end up doing some frantic cleaning on Saturday and turning up in the afternoon. Mind you I hear BOB @ SE is getting good at washing motors, I might give him a ring ;)

What water pipes are we talking about here.

 

(sorry if that is a thick question but from what i know there are so many water pipes on the zx are we talking about the metal pipes or the hoses)

looks ace :)

 

that so needs to be added to the morph now :)

Lovely Stuart!

geoff.

Nice one Stu, yer almost up there with Mac for having so many of me shiny bits on yer car ;) makes a change to see Blue though..

smithy :cool:

Fas,

The water pipes I'm refering to are the hard pipes that the radiator SS pipes connect to.

 

So anyone got an ideas for the rest of the engine bay ?.

I've already put mirror film on the underside of the bonnet.

 

Also has anyone got the same front strut bar as me ?.

Did you need to modify the bonet at all.

Mine closes ok but there does seem to be a little more resistnace than before. I'm not sure if this is due to the bonnet bulge or not.

you defo need to sort out the timing belt cover and the fan shroud, doesnt jaylox do carbon belt covers?

 

both in chrome would look wicked though :)

What about the throttle cable cover sticker - you gonna put that back on?

Stuart

 

Looks great!!

 

I have the same front strut bar and haven't made any bonnet modifications.

 

There are a couple of wear marks where it is a tight fit though!

 

BTW.....you need to polish your CAS :D

 

Steve E

Mike,

I'm not sure about chroming both of them I think that may look a little too shiny ;) LMAO !!!

 

Pete,

I didn't actually take the sticker off. It was red so I decided to smooth it now and paint over it.

I may just get a vinyl sticker made up quoting the BHP or something but then I may just leave it alone :D.

 

Steve,

Polishing the CAS, sounds like a good idea, anyone had that done or got any pictures ?.

you can never have to much shine :)

 

top and bottom left appear to need some of the blang treatment though :)

 

I love the blue though, goes well with the lighter coloured cars.

 

what have you got left to do? and what are you going to do when you are finished? sell her? start on mine? ;)
