Love that bump-stop you have fitted to that fence  post ben  :grin:

Ha ha yeah it is always a talking point - "what's that wheel doing?" and then "Oh" ha ha, they are the stock wheels, couldn't help putting on the black ones  :drag:

I would be worried about a block retaining  wall 1.6m high  when my vet is parked next to it.
especially when the wall have been extended .
I would be asking questions about how it is designed.

Hi everyone

Thought I would share some pictures of work being done.

Pic 1 Is the engine bay, with fuel rails and 102mm Billet TB fitted. (valve covers anodized gold yet to go on)
Pic 2 Where the coils are going to be relocated to.
Pic 3 Re-inforced tunnel plate, twice as thick as original with thermal coating to stop heat in cabin.
Pic 4 Is rear sway bar fitted with adjustable end links
Pic 5 Is Custom headers - 1 7/8" merged fully ceramic coated.
Pic 6 Is Rear sway bar fitted also showing Bilstein fully adjustable coilovers

Here's the link to my facebook page where you will be able to see first run on hub dyno prior to any work being done for a good baseline to work with.

Couple of other things to do then will be re tune, hoping for close if not over 500rwhp

Anyway will keep you all updated.
Cheers
Ben

Cheers Jethro :-) a little bit more at the best revs ie 5500rpm  :drivedevil:

Ben

So have the valve covers now so once they are on will make a big difference to the engine bay look.  :grin:

Ben
