Since the theme changed in here I've stopped use by Photobucket as the img code doesn't seem to work. Not got into the habit of directly attaching the files from the reply options below. 

 

Flickr might work, but I've never successfully posted a Flickr image on here?!?

Flickr works fine it's what i use all the time, doesn't ruin the quality of the picture either. I thankfully changed to Flickr a couple years ago.

 

Nice simple how to here as well... http://uk-mkivs.net/topic/227772-updated-guide-how-to-upload-images-to-the-forum-using-flickr/

Been admiring this build through instagram for ages before finally finding this build thread; only for it to be ruined by the photobucket problem. *sigh* Makes the 36 page thread a little less fun to read and understand the effort that has truly been put into this car. I'll just keep following pictures on Instagram and then switch back here:D. Keep up the good work!

So, Now the fun really begins after all the shiny pics, On the way to ed38, one of the last show of the year, I overtook a van and lost all boost, no warning lights on the dash. I pulled over to check for obvious signs, and it turns out i can see daylight through my exhaust manifold haha!

 

The pictures are shocking haha

On closer inspection it turns out that it really was knackered, with shear determination i ripped it all to bits, took it to the local town and got it welded and put it all back together drove to the show ndcame home with a trophy! 1st in my class.

One from Low Collective

Now the improvements start, turbo bracket, which i suspect is why the first manifold snapped, made from 5mm steel, and some new subframe bolts

 

38452673822_89542275b1_b.jpgIMG_7492 by Jack Gibbs

 

So, I never really replace like for like, I always upgrade where I can, so a tubular manifold was bought along with a 3"downpipe!

 

38452669102_80b422137f_b.jpgIMG_7572 by Jack Gibbs

 

Looking pretty serious!

 

38452668062_2d581a65d8_b.jpgIMG_7618 by Jack Gibbs

 

Some of you who might have noticed, the wiring on the right hand side of the engine was a bit too short, so its been chopped now and 8 inches put into it

38484263791_a7a9c8f8fb_b.jpgIMG_7622 by Jack Gibbs

 

And that is basically everything upto date! Looking to get a new tip made up then the engine can go back in, I love this one from darkside but it will be a one off

Looks great but why bother taking your bonnet off at every show?

 

do you get extra scene point? :D

 

Thanks mate, I hated the look of it with the bonnet up, for the sake of 4 bolts I would rather take it off lol
