The engine is being rebuilt at the moment.
Got some build shots I can post later.
Rebuild taken to long as not happy with ebay as I got ripped off for a manifold and turbo.

Now I have to put the original manifold and T35 back on!!

The rear wing was originally a german FOHA rubber wing, but a usual they rust out and tend to fall off.
I had this wing moulded and converted into fibreglass.

I love everything but the bonnet. That would HAVE to slow you down in a straight line :D

I remember when that looked completely different. Ill try to find the pics. I was blue with 3 spoke rims if i remember correctly.

Cheers,
Nick

Yep, thats an air to water intercooler.
It used to be an AVO stage 1 VL Turbo air to air intercooler.
Just weld on some alloy plates, pit in some fittings, and external heat exchanger, and a large shurflow pump, add coolant and away you go!!!!

Keeps inlet temps real cool, even under harsh boost conditions. :lol:

Any agricultural shop can supply a pump.
Mine is a shurflow 750 and flows 14.5 litres a minute at 45psi.
Pump is not cheap, cost was $350 3 years ago.

If you purchase one be sure to use a relay as this pump pulls 4.5amps.

Quite a nice looking setup you have there! What turbo are you using? GT35?

I can honestly say I've never seen your car around before.
By the way, you copied my rocker cover :P
