Supra-duper

You've come this far, I wouldn't rush it at the last hurdle. Will be great to see it whenever it is complete

I'll be at Cars in the Park Sunday if your there mate, won't be out to much asides from that though as I'm currently out of work so needing to find something job wise asap unfortunately. Oh, and yes I was very, very drunk

I'd love to mate, but if I'm honest I'd probably buy something American to begin with. Would love a classic trans am, aka Smokey & The Bandit style.

No major update here but gave her a well deserved clean. Travelled 600+ miles in her now and everything seems sweet so going to stick with this engine and aim for a na-t build. Unless someone can tempt me with something american and v8 then I may be tempted to sell before that happens Next to fit is the active front spoiler lip that's been waiting to go on. Considering gutting the second cat as well seen as it's rattling, must be the amount of times the exhaust has caught the floor. Also got a show coming up this Sunday, Cars in the Park 2012 at Beacon Park, Lichfield.

Cheers mate, you see it in Morrisons car park or Bentley Bridge? unfortunately it's looking rather dirty at the minute along with hundreds of flies on the front from a recent spirited drive to Wales. Just about to clean her all up again though today

and an amazing sound to match!

Thanks mate! It looks a different car now it's all built up, I love it I'll be attending Suprapod so hopefully you'll see it there. As soon as Suprapod is out the way and I've done some leisurely runs up the 1/4 mile I'll start hunting down power to go with the looks!

Cheers mate, yours will be here soon though

Off on holiday later tonight/early hours of tomorrow morning so been rushed for time but I've managed to get the car on the road. It's far from finished, active front lip still to fit etc. but it's getting there Dyed carpets, dyed headlining, seats etc. all re-fitted: Rear all stripped out and painted black: Motoria cat-back exhaust system polished up: Rear arches cut, undersealed and rear wheels spaced 10mm: Finally just a couple of random pictures: Pretty happy with how it's coming along, I've done a few other bits I haven't wrote down such as removing rear window tints, new number plates and so on. There's still loads left to do yet, it will be going a little bit lower yet and then it's time to start on the interior and engine. Hopefully make it's debut at Suprapod

Sounds like that will be great to watch! a 957bhp FTO

I assume a silly amount of nitrous would help get you there. For reference my BPU auto clocked 0-60 in 4.92 seconds with 404.9bhp, so I'm guessing your going to need serious power to get a 4.5, I'd use drag radials and maybe a high stall torque convertor if your auto.

Looking good mate

Much appreciated, wish I'd of seen this earlier, I could of had my thread as a proper project thread then.

I like your Evo mate, it is the same colour scheme as my Supra on what looks to be the same wheels! Check the link in my signature and you'll see what I mean if you skip to the end.

Cheers mate, it's nothing extreme just to give an extra 4-5mm of clearance so I'm not scared to take passengers or go round a corner enthusiastically lol. With the paint being so recent it will still be soft to an extent so shouldn't crack, but we shall see. They have talked about cutting the arch lip out instead which is a possibility but we will see come Tuesday If the weather stays dry tomorrow she will be getting the interior painted, front finished off with active spoiler lip etc. and then cleaned up for some semi-finished pictures!
