    Haha yeah I was quite happy when she fired up. Cheers man I was talking to my mate about the throttle cable today, I will alter the angle so that the cable runs straight. Ive got no issues with clearance for the cable bracket but i do have a slight clearance issue with the radiator cap. Its the rb radiator and its just a wee bit to tall, and without cutting the tension bars I cant go any further down. The bonnet is so close to shutting but Im struggling to find the closure I need without cutting and welding. I'll be down at it again tomorrow so I'll have another look.

    Ive not updated in a wee while, but i have been working away. Radiator and pipes to the bulkhead are in place, most of the wiribg is now pretty tidy bar the odd wire here and there. I bought an already shortened prop for the rb swap but turned out to be to long so i ended up chopping and welding that. Bought a clutch slave cylinder and flexi off GDuk. Always get great service from them.. Handbrake cable and rear brake flexi are all reconnected. I think i will be able to retain the original downpipe for the exhaust, ive had a test fit and it looks good, I will need to make up a small spacer to go between the "cold" end of the downpipe and the centre/rear section. I just need an intercooler and pipe work to fit and im nearly there

    Bit more progress. My intercooler arrived. And some gearbox oil. So test fitted the intercooler, fits good, but i will have to buy a bit extra pipe work to make it reach. Also got some snti freeze into her and let it run for a bit to get it circulating.Moved it back and forward today
    A small video of her running

    Ive been waiting on 2 silicone 90's to finish of the intercooler pipework. They eventually arrived on friday so i got time to get them on today. I bought a length of 2.5 inch s/s pipe. i needed a little bit more than what was supplied in the kit.

    Got the passengers seat in.

    And got the ecu mounted and hidden away

    Centre console back in..

    Please note cables ties are on temp....ran out pf pipe clamps:P

    Christmas Update!
    standard hubmodified hub

    Ive still got the extended bottom arms to go on to allow more front camber...I will need to lose about 2* of camber off the rear as its way to much at the moment.. In the xmas holidays im going to lead lock the vlsd and get these big arms on..
