    Re: my 5

    Hey matt, I got them thru a motor store round the corner from me, I could get them cheaper from them than sfs direct, there pretty much the same as samco hoses, ie the bleed nipples are the same, I paid 650 for a complete kit. Still mega for some pipes but sfs wanted 688 with the discount.lol wont be using them again I know that. hope it helps.

    These pictures are of just the turbo and downpipe bolted together to check there is no gaps after machine work on the face of the exhaust (no blows for example lol)

    Re: my 5

    I picked up a raider at the weekend - engine bay looks very similar and bodywork much the same - got some dodgy wheels on it though but did come with the original wheels, Ive got 285mm discs on it though so think ill have to just sell them on

    Yours does look very well finished - youve got a few things I need! A grill being one of them. Mine came with a new Campus grill though so Ive dropped that off today to be painted.

    I think Ill have to do a progress thread too - bodywork is A1 but engine needs lots of TLC - sounds like a bag of spanners at the moment!

    Who sorted your engine? A friend or a Garage?

    Little update on mine as I've not bothered lately.lol had the front screen out as a useless window man didn't fit it well at all, so had a new seal put it, from a ford transit, not original bit looks nice and dosnt mist up now!! New discs with wheel bearings standard rear and brembo grooved front, bf good ridge brake lines, wideband to be fitted also, head unit and speakers finally.lol next up, to see Jon to setup the turbo and fuelling, then rolling road to see what it's doing, power wise and a 4gas printout to be certain. And Will be for sale soon.
