My ivory white R

Good stuff out with the old in with the new

Thats right  need to swap everything over to new engine, check clutch condition etc then get her in and then get it mapped and enjoy haha

Nice work glenn  

Good work mate how long did it take in the end?

Well i had already unbolted prop from transfer and taken intercooler rad and drained all fluids last week, so just dropping engine out took about an hour or so wasnt bad, its putting back i hate  haha

So it's a one day non actually...interesting!

Nice job so!

Right i have finally pulled my finger out and built up new engine ready to put in, will be going in before new year, got a couple of bits left to finish inside and reckon should be mapped by mid-end jan. cant wait to drive this seems like its taking ages to build haha

hope your not planning on using that 90 degree elbow straight off the turbo glenn!

needs to be no more than 60 degree then swan neck to another 60 degree
could cause you probs with airflow  

also in that first pic after looking closely I can see the engines not level   

Thanks for the info bob, i was planning to use however i will rethink im sure i bought one off you     I will dig it out and fit that instead 
Haha the level served its purpose when the engine kept moving on the trolley haha

Looks good Glenn. Should be a beast when complete.

Cheers james. Hope so i have a power figure i want in mind and hopefully after mapping i can achieve it

Engine just needs bolting in when get time, getting there also changed intake hose as per bobs recommendation to one with a smoother bend. Hoping by the end of the week to have it all bolted in with a few minor bits left  

My mate has just made me this centre console as i only run top part of dash, will get pics up when fitted, i am also getting carbon door cards and airbox made for the car

Carbon looks sweet Glenn. If your getting flat carbon door cards can you get a price to get some made up for me?
