so another coat of some rattling cans and then some lackackackacker and i were half pleased with the job. considering its been done pretty quickly and with cans it aint bad. aint perfect, but hey.











wrapping the wiring over passenger side rear wheel arch when i fit the carbon inner cards in the week. just basically placed wiring in and put battery on and gave the earths a quick sand then checked the voltages. seems good. so thats it for now. im pleased.

carbon cards fitted in the week i hope, then a clean and a hoover and get it ready for some 1/4 mile antics on the weekend. worryingly my mate slick is doing some of the runs in it. i bet he gets a quicker time than me the sideburned twat.

sound deadening in there is still in. its too small patches to worry about.

i suppose larger fuel pumps would mean can turn the boost up properly to near 2 bar giving it more power. always stuff to do really. it needs a new gearbox at some point and perhaps send it off to have the outside painted.

i dunno, he normally seems to get a shade quicker than me. in my old nova he was a whole .2 of a second quicker. see what happens on weekend i guess. im just hoping he struggles to get it to set off properly.
