Re: Gwenge's car build! NOT FOR ORIGINALISTS!!
Thanks again for the comments...
Small update...
New Turbo Dellorto carbs, These are pressurized and have a power fuel jet for boost.
Started making my plenum chamber.
Engine bay all prep'd so the power plant came out
Painted....
I've stipped all the suspension off tonight, all the LCA's etc. Going to clean these all up and paint them up and then re-build the car so it's rolling.
I'm also going to put my D16A8 in (as it's mint and only done 30k) so this will save buggering up my paintwork later on....
After this it my body panels etc are going back on for final inspection then paint
JACCS here we come ^^,
p.s. Does anyone have a drivers side rear LCA+ hub assembly? 16i or VT... they're both the same. Will have both if you don't want to split? Also fronts for that matter....

Re: Gwenge's car build! NOT FOR ORIGINALISTS!!
Had to cut abit here and there but it's in. Enough room around the exhaust and in between the oil cooler and inter cooler. With the fan on the back of the rad, each will get plenty of cooling PLUS... enough room for inter cooler pipes and oil lines down the side of the radiator.mattymoo wrote:wats the plan on rad i got to the same place intercooler turbo but not a lot of room for rad!

Re: Gwenge's car build! NOT FOR ORIGINALISTS!! 24/3/2011
Hey guys,
I have my Charger yes but I am still working on my civic
I have some pictures on facebook I'll transfer over tonight if I remember.
I'm finalising body work so there not really been much to photograph. The car will be ready for a wet flat pretty soon and then I can bring on the colour
I can't wait to drive around in it but there's a mountain to do still >.<

Started wet-flatting tonight, hoping it'll be done next week sometime so i can get some white on....
Heres some snaps of my Charger xD
Oh boy is it rusty >.< 8k in panels alone.... :/ HA!
Bought a new Fisheye camera, not too bad, want to snap my car with it once it's painted to see what it's like. Been making the most of the good weather though... Getting back on the BMX hype
Safe....
