View Full Version : out with the old
Dials look ace. Can't wait to do mine :agree:
Looks mint with the new ambers :agree:
Looks alot like mine actually, just need the side decals now :D
How akward was it to get the double capacity intercooler to fit with the o.e airfeed? as thats my next job.
Looks great ! I am scared of breaking my clocks, i would purchase a set if i knew someone who could fit them, mine wouldn't be accurate by the time i had finished fitting them :(
Its a ktec intercooler and fits ok,not as snug as the oe one but I wanted to keep that intact for future use.
Thats good, mines a k-tec too. I was worried whether there was going to be enough space, because as you know, its alot wider than an o.e cooler!
Your car looks great mate :agree:
As jonny said - get hold of the side decals :D

few bits to find before I can fit this,top rubber,clip,cowling.:D
looking good jon... just love the fogs...:crush:, just out of intrest what price was the rad?
Liking the pics mate. Really nice lookin motor.
115 plus vat,138 all in.Just ordered th:agree:e last two.
What supplier is the rad? That is cheap for the rad, or do you work for a motor factors?
Valeo, nissens, kempston etc etc
or was it that cheap to get rid of those last two
Think there selling stuff off,water pump 26 quid all in,if its for both half's that's asda price.
That does sound like that are getting rid of the parts then :eek:
That intercooler is the best thing on that motor :cooter:
Looking good pal :)

No charge Matt,one good turn n all that.Will pm you.:agree:

Looks much better. :agree:
Like this car very much indeed. Looking forward to seeing the decals put on.
Just in case you want to remove the over-boost switch (as I notice you don't have it connected atm), you can buy a grub screw with an allen key fitting very cheaply that will neaten up that intercooler pipe.
This is what I put in mine. Oops, sorry for the massive pic.

That's the outer window/door seals done,thanks to everyone for their words of wisdom.Easy really.:agree:
where did u get them from mate looks ace
Hard to tell but you should have on left hand side that you have lights on
Awesome door cards :)
Are they done by Phoenix? When you send them do you have to remove and clean the old material off? Oh and how much for a full set (front and back)???
