I think my stock turbo's are on the way out, hence looking at turbo's, then started looking at supporting mods. I guess what Im looking for is a to do list, with manufacturers etc. Thanks Barry

Posted a thread earlier and waiting for some prices for turbos from some of the traders. While im considering new turbos, started thinking about supporting mods aswel. Thinking of some of the following, any thoughts, ideas would be welcomed. New Turbos (not sure which yet) Nismo 555 injectors Side mount intercoolers Wiseco Pistons Anything else I should consider, while the engine is out? The car at the moment, was a UK Auto, now converted to Manual Unorthadox lightened pulley set Dump Valves Air filter RPS Clutch and Lightened Flywheel Megan Decats and Mongoose rear Have a Profec B11 to fit and will source a chip Thanks Barry.

Just looking at pricing turbo's up at the moment, whats available, how much and where from, supply only? Looking for upgraded, as eventually will upgrade injectors and intercoolers, but will be running the new turbos mostly on stock parts, apart from profec boost controller. Also, will the turbo's need new fittings etc? I have megan decats on Many thanks in advance Barry.

Car let me down today for the first time, I guess its not bad considering Ive had the car 2 1/2 years. Had myself booked in with Leon at Alunox, to have my exhaust moddified, or a new one made to suit the new bodywork plans. Go to start up the car at 730am this morning, turning over, but not starting, eventually battery went flat. Sounds like lack of fuel. Checked fuse nr the brake master cylinder, ran ecu test - 55 ok, fuel pump seems to prime. Dont mind the car letting me down, just hate it when I have booked myself in for work and let others down.

Is this part just spray painted? if so does anyone know is it a special paint Thanks Barry

I thought that, I will get the bigger one on order! lol Barry

Think, I got my measurements wrong! lol. Do you think it will get in the way of the gear change? Barry

Great minds think alike! :) Barry

Lol, thanks Pete! Something to look forward toooo! Barry

Car will be in bodyshop, all of February. Hopefully complete for March meet. Barry

Many thanks Barry

As Im having a lot of work done on the exterior of the car, I need to update the interior. As it stands at the moment, its standard grey uk tweed trim and seats. I have seen the kits on ebay, designed for RHD cars made in Italian leather. Are these worth while? Are these easier to fit because they are shaped, or is it just the same as getting the material from the market. Also, has anyone done this with another material ie Alcantara? Thanks Barry

Just doesnt fit in with my plans. Wanted a new mirror, but believe the Veilside ones arnt available at the moment, so these are quite similar, so will fibreglass the indicators out. Barry

Here you go Daz, sounds like they perform similar to what youve got, as there not very bright. Not a problem for me, as I didnt want the indicators anyway :) Barry

No, Looked at Iain and said " sod it, youve passed! not arguing with you!" lol Good News Iain Barry.

Thanks Daz, thats what I was looking at doing, modifying the original plates. Will put some power on them tomorrow night and take a pic for you. Barry

Im sure theres some way round it :) . Barry

Confused Graham? nothing new there then :tongue: lol Barry

Arrr lol, was going to put on a remote, but waiting to find out if it can be attached to my alarm fob (but Scorpion have since gone bust). Most probably going for the button. Barry

Paul, yeah there from the ebay. To be honest was about to try and get veilside ones, but believe theres a shortage. These were closest in design. Thinking of removing the indicators in the mirrors and fibreglassing them. Barry

Yes Daz, Delocking and handles, removing re wash wipe and elec aerial. I did get some base plates with the mirrors, there not the correct ones though lol, just emailed seller, awaiting a reply. Have you had the same problem? Barry

Just took some pics of some of the parts Ive been buying over the past two months. Still lots more on order. Then I go to look at my car in the garage and holes have started appearing, I suppose I should get them welded up ;) Barry

Cheers Scotty, will get it tightened up. Barry

Is it normal for the belts on a lightened pulley set to squeel? It does eventually go, but is very annoying. Thanks Barry

Oooohhhh, Looks like Im one of your very first customers :) Barry
