The conversion looks a little iffy.. looks as though it's leaning (too much power/broken mount)?

not really a sleeper just stealthy, nothing gives it away that its a turbo as the only little bit you can see is the oil cooler just looks like an xe

few small updates, carbon bonnet is gone, wasnt keen on it and it was runing the stock look, so grp bonnet and boot arrived this week awsome cant beleive how light they are the boot is 4.5kg and the bonnet 4kg.
fitting them so they look like normal ie no pins etc gonna mod under the bonnet and fibreglass the bonnet catch etc into it
bonnet and boot, also came with the gsi spoiler which was a nice bonus
made and fitted spiggot rings to brakes and tried to fit my braided lines but got sold a set with a split hose so was unsucessful , fited new master cylinder to.
picked up this momo wheel from the scrappy for £20 proper bargain, will be fiitng soon loking for a cheap boss if anyone has one
finaly i made up some beefy door bolts for the garage door fed up with lil scum bags pulling the door back and mooching my stuff  , sorted now though:thumbs

few more updates, got off my arse on sat and thought id do a bit
firstly a hearty breakfast [imghttp://i682.photobucket.com/albums/vv183/ashleybruneau/SDC11049.jpg[/img]
then dealt with the new fibreglass boot , got it all fitted so it used the original boot lock part and normal hinges so looks completley standard and gave it a quick sand ready for painting next month
then onto the front, fitted the oil coller in the bumper properly and also got round to cutting and fitting the lower splitter
bumper all fitted on and oil cooler piped up, also modded the rear of the headlight to get the pipe for the afm to fit properly after a bit of grinder action
making the brackets for the bonnet, ive got the rear hinges done just gota work out a a way of using and fitting the bonent catch as i dont really want pins
car then ent on a bit more of a diet all interior almost gone bar dash, toof lining out, that stuff behind the lining was a mission to get off weighs a fair bit to , wat a ball ache
also started gutting the passanger door, keeping the crash bars but the door cards and furnishings removed, glass removed, manua, window meachanishms and rails speaker and most of the metal gutted out the weight of the stuff removed was 12 kgs so pretty happy with that
more next weekend:beer:
