Sure do mate, I'm going to have to wait untill later in the year to sort a few things out due to the weather

 

[8bit]

There's always next weekend, no?

 

[RDS]

Theres a couple of bits of bodywork that need a bit of a touch up. I am planning on finally getting the front discs fitted next weekend though along with the spark plugs and 2.0t coilpacks.

 

[8bit]

Yeah, suppose not much point sorting bodywork out this time of year. What discs did you go for?

 

[RDS]

EBC ultimax discs

 

[RDS]

Got everything fitted this morning

Went outside and thought the ice on the car looked mad:

Before:

After:
The cable ties are now a thing of the past:

Where the T piece is looks abit tidier now

I'll have to get some red tubing for the side of the catch can, not happy with how it looks now.

The N75 and MAF are also on now.

Cheers for looking

I love how picky you are with all these small touches! Reminds me of, erm, me... lol.

Great work mate.

Ice shots are pretty 'cool' no pun intended!!

 

[RDS]

Cheers mate, small things just bother me. For example the small engine cover I filled in the holes and painted it gloss black, but if you look here:

you can make out where the holes have been filled. So its off and has been sanded and primed ready to be painted and then it'll go back on (when I'm happy with it)

[LCR 225]

Loving the attention to detail looks mint!

 

[RDS]

Cheers mate, I've got to say I'm really happy with the way it looks

 

[8bit]

Wow, that ice looks mad! Catch can install looks very neat now, very OEM. Remind me, where did you get the can (if you don't mind me asking)?

 

[Phillc]

Looking good Rich, its the little things that make all the difference (well thats what the wife say's) are you going to put hose finishers on the catch tank end of the hoses? And where have you put the fuse box that was where the catch tank is?

 

[wayne lcr]

@phil take the 1 relay out tape it up and put it in the black cover next to it.

Cheers mate, got the catch can made by a mate of my uncle's.

Thanks again for the link mate, I'm not sure if I'm going to put the finishers on the catch can end .

As wayne said the fuse out of the box is now in the black wire channel thing next to the can, the clip off the back of the fuse box is now on the catch can so it clips in and holds nicely

Good stuff mate, get some pics up. I've been waiting for ages to see how you got on with the heatshield.
