So the primer was left overnight and smoother out after work and the first 2 coats of paint have been laid! And what can I say it looks beautiful!
However there won't be anymore photos of progress until after japfest!

Busy coupld of days!
The engine is in just the manifolds left to put on!

So today the engine got the manifolds put on, all the wiring done the injectors put in ecu and turbo but turns out the elbow I bought was the longer s14 one so need a new one of those and the new turbo needs some new siliicone pipes which I will have to get tomorrow and should be able to try starting it! Fingers crossed it fires up
Also got a full set of japspeed adjuatable arms for an awesome price!
Just want it back on the road now haha
Also relocated the loom to higher up to prevent rubbing in the arch and got the wings on and wiring adapted to suit the us spec side markers

So today was its maiden voyage!
And it went quite well, one of the brakes was sticking a bit but it sorted itself out!
However there is too much boost! got warning on EBC set to 1.1 bar and was hitting it pretty easily!
Tonights jobs are finishing rolling the arches so the wheels will fit and give her a well overdue and deserved clean (if the rain stops)
Then its off to japfest!
PICS!!!!
Good stuff, get that boost wound down to be on the safe side mate, and have a great day tomorrow!
yeah will be adjusting that haha And i will do my best but the weather doesn't look funPICS!!!!
