I actually just got back from getting paint to paint the intake runners nik haha, i got this new sh1t, got ceramic in it ment to be hell good for manifolds n that. Theres not alot to update on.. i have been doing alot of little things. got just about all the power steering hooked up, coil packs mounted, wiring is all done just need to refit the harness, the braided fuel lines are run, tail shafts bolted up. i have got just about all the parts i need too. main thing i need is another bosch 044 fuel pump if anyone has one? i go back down to perth this sunday for another 2 weeks so there wont be any progress over that time obviously. but when i get back i will be getting stuck into it, got to make sure its all done and running fine for C4C Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
