few more things gathered up
thanks to mk motorsport for doing my turbo hanger welding is awesome

also got the solid rear beam mounts from him

got the start of my Aeroquip from torques on ebay I've decided to use black

got some of my new brake lines as well


the expensive stuff now:worried:
got my gearbox and diffs back from bara motorsport
gone for one of his front 7" diffs which is a copy of the old r and d



decide to go 3.9 drop gears on the car so when the cwp was getting changed I got the bearings and viscous redone when it was all in bits



I bought the gearbox second hand but as I was changing the cwp in the diff I needed the drop gears changed,turns out the box already had 3.9 drop gears so that's a result but the chain was slack so that was replaced and a few other bits done


turbo has been sent back as it was supplied wrong so hopefully that wont be long until its back

so all I need now is the car:sob::sob:

Starting to get all the bits gathered up rightly now Mark! Who made up and swagged your black brakelines? I'm doing a car soon with the braided fuel hose and for using the black fittings, but I'm wanting the teflon fuel lines to keep the petrol fumes down. Is the black aero quip lines the earls stuff and does it breath/sweat the petrol fumes?

Hi Richard,thanks it's getting there,Roy in sport and spares did the brake lines. And the fuel line is the proper -6 Teflon for fuel. I got it from torques on eBay the have all the fittings etc aswell. They do -10 and -12 Teflon aswell,I'll put the link up shortly for you.

Just read this from start to finish, nice to see someone thinking outside the box and rebuilding something completely different that nobody would think of. Love the colour!
