Thanks mate, deffo got a touch in getting the new engine, have you picked up your Trophy yet.

Not yet mate, but Id love do charge it up once Ive got to grips with it... No knowhow unfortunately

The supercharger kit is very easy to fit mate, if you can do a aux belt change, you can fit a supercharger.

Wouldnt know where to start with that either, I should just leave it to the experts and wait for one to be sold, let me know if you get fed up with yours
Doubt Id do anything to the Trophy tbh, maybe the van if it doesnt sell..

Have you thought about relocating the battery to the boot and getting a straight pipe for the inlet?

 

[Korky]

Love this mate! Rotrex charger make a unreal noise! The car is tastefully spec'd too!

Thinking about maybe fitting a race battery somewhere in the car, not too fussed though

Fitted a Mocal oil catch tank yesterday, I haven't got a lot of room under the bonnet now so the normal places people fit them was out. Managed to get it under the inlet pipe, used the old bracket for the old air box and also got a fixing for the other side in the bottom battery bracket, really pleased with how it looks

Put the breather over by the left front light

I have had a dent in my bonnet for ages now, right in the middle at the front, so a right pig to get out. The bonnet is also covered in stone chips (as is the front bumper) so I got a price to have the bonnet repaired and have the bumper painted as well. Was going to get it booked in when I came across a brand new carbon bonnet for sale, the guy wanted to much money for it at first, but managed to get for a price I was happy with considering I was going to have mine repaired away.

Went and picked it up on Saturday morning and fitted it as soon as I got back, as it was new and never been fitted I had to drill all the holes for washer jets, bonnet stay ect. Tool a couple of hours and was pretty easy really. Really very happy with how it looks, it doesn't line up perfect but its not bad and I am very fussy.

Just need to get the front and rear bumpers painted and sort out my carbon washer blanks, fog surrounds and splitter which I will do myself and the car will be ready for CSS

EPIC mate, f@#$&n love this motor... Didnt even seem like you were trying too hard on track and passes for fun.. What power is it running atm.. Hopefully have something like this soon..

Thanks mate, power is around 250 bhp/ 240 ft/lbs going to a independent RR next month so will be interesting to see what it makes.

Ordered a few more bits today, a set of mist washer jets, some DS2500 pads and Motul RBF brake fulid. I have been using Mintex 1155's but they are twice the price of ds 2500 and I don't think they are as good.

Going to get a rear carbon bumper insert from Chris on here, and that will be all the carbon done.

Looks great Dom, both engine bay and bonnet. Bet it was quite daunting drilling into a brand new bonnet, let alone a carbon one!

 

[domsclio182]

Thanks, Yeah my mate who helps me with a lot of the mechanical stuff on the car refused to do it lol, he knows I'm a fussy bugger.

Just gets better and better.. Is it your daily drive or just weekender

 

[Austin-182]

Looks fantastic. Do you mind saying what the total priceis to have that done?

Its my daily drive at the moment

Thanks mate, to have what done?

 

[Chi]

I think he means what does the car owe you.

 

[domsclio182]

I will add every thing up when I get a chance.

Hmm, are you sure you want to do that lol :rasp:

 

[wag_7]

I really like your dash finish.

+1 lol make sure your sat down

 

[Laine_16v]

Looks awsome!! Just FYI, you can do away with the oil breather filter altogther, the cap on the Mocal tank is completely breathable.

 

[Baylis]

Loving the stealthy look, its looking really good mate

 

[Tutuur]

Haven't seen this one before, what a lovely car mate!

 

[r0ss172]

Looks great, but considering you've got the engine bay looking so pristine I'd have to get a new coolant bottle put in there!

 

[Richyy182]

Unreal. Want.

Thanks mate, I thought it was, will probably keep the filter on at the moment, as I will need to get a blanking cap.

Sorted out my carbon washer blanks, splitter and fog surrounds at the weekend, they were badly stone chipped, got the old lacquer off and rubbed it all down and put some new lacquer on, was a bit of a pain because fogs and blanks are bonded on so had to mask up most of the bumper. Look much better now, just need a bit of polishing.

Took a couple of pics with the bumper off

Also had a bit of a mess about with the carbon bonnet as it wasn't sitting quite right, still not perfect but it is better now.

New pads and brake fluid has turned up so need to fit pads and change the fluid.

I have been getting some prices for going forged, will probably get all the parts together over the next few months and then buy a dona engine to rebuild.

Fairplay mate, wish I had the money to do something like this =(!

Had another mess about with my bonnet last night, managed to get the bonnet a bit further forward but when I closed it, it got stuck and wouldn't open. After a couple of phone calls to a couple of mates to give me a hand we got the bonnet open and realised that the reason the bonnet wasn't closing flush was because the middle section that goes down from the slam panel to the front beam had came out of the two bolts that hold it in the right position, so just need to tighten them up and it should sit much better.

 

[domsclio182]

Bonnet sorted and nice and clean ready for CSS.

 

[dmallett]

Bonnet is so so discreet! Conveying down with us Dom?
