Cool, turbo'd 1600.

Id keep the let for the future tho, depending what you want the car for tho? 1/4s etc is definently LET territory.

Well engine arrived today! Also just ordered a Quiffe LSD for it 8)





Also got some of my panels on Saturday





All brand new genuine OE panels, which are extremly hard (and expensive) to get a hold of for novas now! These ones came all the way from Germany 8O

Unfortunatly one of the rear 1/4 panels was damaged, so that will be getting sent across along with 2 new doors soon.

Here is a picture of the side i really need to replace, n/s rear quarter. Other side is in perfect condition though.






Also got some 16" Irmscher softstars to replace my speedlines


As soon as i get the rear 1/4 il get it away for paint, then its the hard part. Putting the car back together! 8O Got all the parts i need/want now.

Just a wee update. Picked up a new intercooler, one off a Focus ST from work. Should do the trick as its a decent size, going to paint it black and have it out the middle of the bumper just below the number plate.



Also picked up my other rear quarter on Sunday, so hopefully get it painted over the next few weeks. Then it will be time to put this jigsaw together!
