Sounds like a job offer :)
My plan is to be there middle of 2015 , my misses has been there now for 6 months working and she brings in more than I do lol..... Your right the uk is fucked most customers want everything for nothing more so now than ever.....And the goverment don't help When I do get to your home land I need to find a shop that works well and isn't full of retards untill then i couldnt even think about starting again on my own |
Well here is another little update
I've trimmed and cut the holes for the rad and cooler http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps8885bfc4.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps6e79e218.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps3fd62f82.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psd953858c.jpg |
Maybe give some pointers to people who want to undertake some fiber glass work?
that duct looks excellent btw. |
Ok lower duct is finished I stone chipped the duct to match my chassis legs which I did last year then a coat of Matt black
Once everything is in you can't really see the duct at all lol But I do have plans for an upper duct I just need the balls to cut my bonnet or I need to find a plain OEM style glass fibre bonnet or a cheap as chips carbon one Anyway onto the ram air ducting ;) Pic with the cooler out gives you a better idea I also sealed the rad and later the cooler to the ducting with foam 7mm weather stripping to unsure air tight seal http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps56dc59ca.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps4623e843.jpg Water on tap ;) MWI Systems http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psf0a509cc.jpg Cold air intake pipe and filter sitting nice at the front of the ducting http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psf45bb19d.jpg |
Tiny update
Got most of my work out the way ready for tomorrow so this afternoon I started making a trans brace based on the "dragon design" but with more beef :) 11mm big daddy style http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps6777f293.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps439b8dfa.jpg Quick coat of primer http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps0ac019c3.jpg Then the magic colour Black :) http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps93d8e1c3.jpg Then she finds her way back onto my car http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps093b0156.jpg |
Ok guys not much doing my end
But I am planning ahead and making more room for my upper intercooler ducting So out with the old slam panel and in with a new TGS one ;) http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps0a687be3.jpg I can now see 98% of the core :) win http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps5d53fc09.jpg From the photo above you can see my Plates that I'm using to tie in the bonnet catch and more of them below with sexy welds http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psa1e0361d.jpg http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps5b103f00.jpg Not really a good photo I will get more tomorrow when I get some time to finish it I may even tie into the lower front intercooler mount for added strength... But even now it feels stronger than what I had left there after cutting to get the cooler in place http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...ps5469ec46.jpg Ps this photo I've just found on the pod website from last years rotorstock :) http://i527.photobucket.com/albums/c...psd17253dd.jpg More to follow |
