After about 8-10months off the road, the beast is back.
I still have to get some pipes made up for the oil catch can, get a new radiator shroud and polish the cam covers, but she's looking a lot better than it used to.
New mods include:
Powdercoated intercooler pipes for that unusual look. Turbosmart BOV mounted behind the front grill Painted plastic bits in BMV Silver Coil packs remounted and new TopGun leads Air strut suspension (like air bags but in cylinder form) 96 Soarer Torsen LSD Replaced auto with 3000rpm stally and stage 1.5 shift kit
I think thats about it... have a look and let me know what needs to be done
Thanks Ben
PS- i have more pics, but cant be F'd resizing them to suit the forum.

i got the plastic painted by a mate. Only took him 3 hours after i prepped them. Look great, the interior looks sweet as well.
The cogs dont need to be covered, just need to make sure no dirt or parts fall down there. I'll be getting Adjustable gears soon enough.
The "dodgy looking blue rag" is actually heat rap that has gone loose at the seams. I need to get some alloy piping made up as the rag is stopping the rubber piping from melting from the heat of the turbine housing.
Ill try and get some more decent pics this sunday on the Toyota cruise to Wivenhoe.
Cheers peoples! Ben
