[ste]

gettin excited now that making more progress...

got first coat of white on the cage makes it look lot better than boring black


then finally chose this colour for the interior, i wanted MG blue but was 20euro for a 400ml tin and would have needed 4tins or so so i wasnt payin that so picked this colour off the shelf for 8.95 a 400ml tin so was well happy...

before lacquer


after laquer but ran out before i got boot space done


never done anythin like this before so happy wit how its comin along also tidied up lots of wiring.... and also fixed up the front end and all the loose bits of bodykit..

plans at the min are finish painting cage, laquer boot space and re fit interior

that looks sweet! did you use rattle cans or a proper spray gun??

[ste]

rattles nikki haven a clue bout spraying as is never mind with compressor

[bart]

dont mean to burst your bubble but if your planning on doing PD next year that cage wont pass...

[ste]

haven got anywhere near the skills man, all it needs is door bars and cut off to be acceptable if i did want to i think.... the cage already had door bars welded on when shane healy had it as the cut marks are still there

looks class for rattle cans , i wanted to do blue though

[ste]

got cage in today relocated boost gauge and mounted extinguisher and fitted centre console

[ste]

finally got round to gettin good look for turbo id plate and is defo a s15 bb turbo so thats a plus....

well have this just about ready now, noticed a few minor mechanical things to be sorted before mondello mainly mani gasket..

in last few days i have

fitted new front pads,
new yellow stuff rear pads,
given the car a service,
connected the avcr
relocated boost gauge to where its more visible
lagged the cage where our heads may hit
tidied the messy wiring around coilpacks
(still have to find some suitable heat reflective covering for them)
tightened turbo bolts where they join to down pipe
and bunged any holes in the floor where too many fumes may enter

as said i still have few minor jobs to do also have to get a drivers side window reg as the drivers window not working and have checked all fuses and relays and there fine

here the interior now, cost me 128euro from start to finish so i happy with it

this was the day i got it


and now
