ok guys and girls...Now that i have a base 1/4 mile time and power figure,we can start phase 2 of the conversion...This is what it entails.
*Taking the motor out again and doing the following.
-Sort out a rear main leak (brand new seal leaking).
-Send Mountings to get polly filled.
-Cut out firewall and re-weld or fibre glass back up,to make space for fire retardant air filters.
-Re-route hoses and wiring to tidy up engine bay and make more space behind trumpets.
-Fit 1.7d radiator and 2 fans.
-Remove ball joints to slot the bolt holes to allow more movement on CV joints.
-Give engine bay a proper cleaning and spray over.
-Sort out my Fuel tank level sensor.
-Fix broken driver seat.
-Ceramic coating branches
Going to attempt to do all this within the next 2 weeks.

What do you do for a living if I may ask coz its seems like you have alot of free time on your hands. I really love what you have going on here. Wish I could also attempt this in the future when I have more time on my hands. _________________

How stiff/low is ur suspension in front? Sound like u need some adjustables for trackday to prevent the front from lifting up too much. Or tie 2x bags of cement to the bonnet nxt time

Hey JB. Congrats man. Really impressive figures and build mate. Can easily believe you'll be in the 13's soon.
By the way, did you beat that chick in the Z4 last weekend at the strip?
