coming soon mate, cars getting painted next weekend a dark maroon with majenta, inside doors, boot already done maroon over silver.
its a light tan interior all stock, manual.
engine is standard non turbo with 2mm head spacer, forgies, h-beam rods and billet crank.
got turbo injectors, air flow meter, intake manifold, top mount manifold with modified for 38mm wastegate, high flow t3/t4 turbo, copper 3/8th feed line and copper 1/2 inch return both with brass fittings and stainless flanges, 2 1/2 from the turbo back with high flow cat, oil and coolant overflow cans, in the process of hiding as much wiring as i can(no idea how you guys get it so clean)
havent started with the box or diff yet.
so far build has been 2 years, started it when i started my auto apprenticeship and vowed to have it finished by the time i finish my apprenticeship.
