Top job fella, Your a true grafter! and enthusiast! :lol: Only thing i'd recommend is a brembo 312mm brake conversion. ;)
 
no, i have a trick up my sleve for that one, but im keeping stum hehehehehe

is the trick that you're going to chuck that in the bin?

I think that the car was looking great up to that last pic.... it'd be a shame to a) ruin the look b) make it run like a turd by having your multi coloured, "oversized" exhaust tube.
 
ok, bit un called for, but you opinion and your quite welcome too it. there really isnt a massive difference in length had i gon all aroung the house and up over the engine bay, plus when those guys fit fmic they use bigger cores than i am, af for multi coloured the blue hoses are unseen and are what came with the kit, im not pay £££ for samco just so i know there matching lol ;)

all i can do is see how well it runs, if its a 'turd' as you say then i will change it, but upto now, thats all i can really do

see the hidden compliment:

seems a shame to do a top notch job, then let it down.

the pipes are too big, the routing could be a lot better

but the bit you're good at shows
 
thanks, i think lol. tbh the car doesn't needd a fmic, i drive 100 miles a week if that, too and from work lol usually in traffic.


nearing the end now haha yeah right,

got the front bumper mounted, but really not happy with it, im guna chop and make it fit alot better, then i have some adjustments to do on the bonnet and grill to make that shut perfect, a few rubbers and the petrol flap to go on and its time to polish it,

took it for a quick drive to settle the suspension before they get adjusted, it sounds evil lol and spools up pretty much the same as before which is nice, although i have had a part to play in that ;)
