Poriordan 97 Posted September 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Lol there not ahah there joms got some more pics from today's work Test fitted my intercooler with so precision holding tools lolThen I removed the front slam panel rad etc and began to fit it using a lot of these ahahhaI then fitted it with some makeshift radiator fixings Once I got all that back on I fitted some of the boost pipes After all of that I decided to get the bumper cut out and at first it was looking goodBut and a very big but I realised I had to butcher the bumper to peaces (don't judge me ahaha) but I have a plan I've ordered a new splitter and I gonna refit that with some metal brackets which I think will make the bumper look decent again I know it looks bad but wait it will look whole again ^^^And here's one with the coilovers fittedThat's all for now VR6Pete 1 Link to post Share on other sites
MaidenVR6 26 Posted September 28, 2013 Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 I run the 256 ecu that i got from Matt in 2009 when he worked for C2. His UM software i asume is even better.Your 6262 Tagential T4 0.81 will be killer ! Remember clutch and LSD diff. Clutchnet red pressure plate with a 6 or 4 puck sprung disc is cheap and holds good power on the 02a/02j boxes. Link to post Share on other sites
Poriordan 97 Posted September 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Cool is Matt uk based if so what's his email and we're is a good place to get a clutch from Link to post Share on other sites
Poriordan 97 Posted September 28, 2013 Author Report Share Posted September 28, 2013 Had a go a photoshop not great but gives you an idea of how the bumper should look once I've put the splitter on and meshed the sides obviously it won't have white in the mesh that's just my poo photoshopping lol Link to post Share on other sites

Poriordan 97 Posted October 13, 2013 Author Report Share Posted October 13, 2013 Ok since the last update I've so farBegan rebuilding the bumper to look as stock as possible Relocated the brake reservoir I then test fitted the turbo and manifold Fits nicely after that I checked that the strut brace still fits close but it's all good After that I ripped it all bake off and built the manifold up properly all ready for after the clutch is fitted. I went for a 6 puk spec stage 3 in the end.Oh and still no joy on the software side of things , may have to have it rolling roaded Link to post Share on other sites
