cruise control is now out of the car, now just trying to make wires a bit better and next will be taking out the air con to get rid of all those hoses
but still waiting for timmy to get the cas put in for me
also trying to suss out if i can keep the engine in the car to get the airbox and battery areas sprayed... but just need to get it going first
well i never really used cruise control, but if anyone looks in the cabin, the buttons are there
the washer bottle was brand new, may just clean it, if u look at the first pics of it, it was a brand spanker
hey guys
got some updates for you
first of all got rid of washer/overflow bottle and partially neatened up the wiring in the bay
made my own washer bottle and overflow bottles too
also changed my CAS and now it idles perfectly
also may be buying a to4b turbo,forward facing plenum, dump piip and all piping to suit which will see a bit more power
also, my car made the banner
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
so the CAS was that idling problem!? hahaha.
buy that set-up off nate, oh btw it made 230 HP not kw!.. it made 300hp @ 12 psi so it would definately get you some more power
and get some pics up or your bay!
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
yeh im not getting nates setup, he's giving it to mish
however im getting his rajab lookalike plenum with pipin to suit
i went down to ray genner to sus out my bay, they said they should be able to get the airfilter area and battery box area smoothed and the two little humps in the drivers side guar where the overflow/washerbottle screws into smoothed too
and also getting my rocker cover and nates plenum sprayed into imperial blue so it should all be looking the goods very soon for cfc6

check my thread for progress on my car i just updated it a bit lol.
you should have a go at your bay yourself man it wouldnt be that hard!
and no licence yet still another couple of weeks til my test. its booked for the 18th

hello all
Well i spoke to Queen St Smash the other day on the phone about doing my bay and they seemed happy enough for me to pop round for a quote, so i will be heading down there on saturday for them to hopefully say yes and make it all pretty looky
also picked up my plenum and cooler piping off nate on monday so that, aswell as my rocker cover should hopefully be painted imperial blue when the bay is getting done
this is the plenum i got which has an XF tb on it too
and this is how the bay is looking atm
Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
can vouch for ray genner smash patch, they painted my car and done my bay and I have to say it was worth every cent, the only flaw I can pick is a run in the paint on the underside of the bonnet but it's hardly noticable
hey man,
yeh i heard they were good, they called me back today with a quote but i will see what qsr have to say cause ray genner's quote seemed a bit pricey
my calais is the same as yours patch.. was weighing up whether to keep it or whether to change it.. it desnt look too bad tho! I recon convo's or calais internationals look good on this colour.
yeh i wanted to get internationals but there were none around at the time and i saw the cv8z on ebay and though hey y not put a bid in and i won so yeh lol
would still like a set to see how they look, i wouldnt mind a set of vk calais' rims with a white wall on it though, saw a pic of them the other dya and looked gorgeous
seeing QSR tomoz so fingers crossed it all goes well and they say they can do the bay for a reasonable price

they quoted 1500-1700 without including getting the rocker and intake done and only spray the two side bits
spoke to QSR today nice guys down there, gonna take it to them on either mondya or tuesday...so it should be looking nice and purty very very soon
Ahk yeah, I guess mine was cheaper because I was doing the whole thing.
What did qsr quote if u don't mind me asking?
Also, get them to airbrush some of them sick ghost skulls on your rocker cover :P
i dont get the ghost skulls bit...
QSR said it would be 1800 to smooth and paint everything they could reach, polish up some of the metal things, paint fusebox lid,rocker,intake and radiator covers....
the guy seemed really nice and helpful and its getting organised with maatouks to get the work done as well so should be good
