Good work. Nice when things do what they're supposed to for once lol.

Its good when a plan comes together, you must feel good now its sorted as those things just fester in the back of your mind until cured, then boy does it feel good, well done in such a short time frame.
I bet your face had a big one of these

[Lucky]

I thought turbos were meant to whistle Mine sounds like a party streamer thing

I love your engine bay, Ian. It's immaculate

I love your engine bay, Ian. It's immaculate

it would look a lot better with your strut brace....... getting that chromed was a great call...... want one.

I had this car on Keiths Crypton analyser last weekend and the reading were good but out on the road, it seems to be leaning out towards the top of the boost.... think I maybe need to invest in a red top pump and a regulator.

Used my car for work last week and parked it in the multi storey at Lichfield whilst I went to the bank..... came back and found a note on it to say it had been photographed by a local photographer...... turned out the photographer was Robert who gave me my old silver RX7, the one that sadly didn't make it due to body rot but the car that the engine and running gear on my current RX7 came out of...... small world
Even with the car soaking wet in a council car park his photography skills make it look good....
