    H reg white R5 Turbo

    Been offered a H reg white R 5 GTT just put a deposit on it. my friend brought it 7 months ago and after a month someone crashed into the front wing. its been inspected. just needs wing and possibly front bumper as there is a bit missing at the bottom. Its got service history upto 68k its now on 78k, lowered, side exit, uprated cam and T25 turbo. couldnt let it go to waste its been sat in his garage for 6 months.







    the plan is to repair the body work run her for abit while i build the F7P turbo engine and drop that in see how it goes. Heres some pics of the engine parts i have already.











    will keep you guys updated when i get new parts and will post pics up of the engine build when i start it. Thanks for looking

    That looks the nuts mate and well done with the mot. Mine very recently went through with just a number plate bulb gone. Makes ya very happy when your 20 year old car goes through better than most newer cars don't it. Keep the updates coming.

    Re: H reg white R5 Turbo

    Update i found out the turbo was a T2 and the rear housing cracked so ive now fitted a T25 hybrid roller bearing turbo. Its just passed its MOT and it hit 80000 miles on the way there.



    Ive finally got a replacement front bumper cheers Matt C

    Before



    After



    Plans are to tidy it up more and get rid of the carbon fibre bonnet and thinking about Ph 1 clio turbine wheels in black with polished lip

    I've sorted my boosting problem changed the boost system now works perfectly

    Mocked up pipe work



    Filter moved and turbo boost pipe fitted



    Pipe run passenger side



    Drivers side pipe work



    Overlook also fitted 90 degree dizzy



    Front view



    More pictures soon bumper and grill fitted. Gave her a clean I've missed driving it as soon as the boost kicked the smile returned :-D
