FPMSL wrong person has got it then !

Anyhow this update is live from San Francisco. Was up at 10 to 7 this morning, i emptied out the car and had a quick weigh up of what i have got with it and what i need then set off to work.

Up to now i know it needs:
Lambda sensor as other wire is cut and joined etc,
Exhaust section to join downpipe to middle section,
F28 Linkage, flywheel and cover plate,
Some addition roosesport hose's for the FMIC i have,
3 bolt rear gearbox mount,
SPAL fan or something like that.

I have already sorted the following bits:
F28 front gearbox mount,
F28 6 speed box,
F20 Speedo ring and drive,
Helix clutch plate that needs re-plating.

Visually thats all i picked up on this morning. Obviously the car would be fine running on the F20 its fitted with and i might even just get it running on that to start with as it seems the easier option.

Quite shocked with what the car spec is though, here is a brief breakdown of the spec:
C20LET,
Roosesport full hose set,
T Reg Sport shell,
what look like large inner and outer CV driveshafts,
288mm V6 brakes,
Avo coilovers front and rear,
3" exhaust system,
F20 gearbox,
Frontera FMIC,
Cesaro alloys.

Few pics of some of the stuff i got with it:



Going to be straight on it on Monday, want the inlet removed to fit a few roose hoses to the underside of it and also it will give me chance to give the inlet a good clean along with the idle control valve.
