:D Steady Ross :)

 

Ah, yep she'll be heavy ;)

Should have went for the carbon/carbon :D

Gaz.

In hindsight you're prolly right, if I ever ditch this one thats what I'll go for, in the meantime it all helps with my weightloss reigeme :D

 

Very, very nice Jay :thumbs: Clearly a lot of thought has gone into the install, love the little touches like the injector cover.

Cheers Daryll, yeah I'm really pleased with every part of the car, I'd say the next big spend may be a fresh spray job in black this year.

Looks stunning mate ,But why do you have the - terminal on the battery spaced up so much?

What a keen eye you have Matt,

 

That's because one day I tightened up the nut so tight I stripped the thread, doh. The only way back was to re dye it to an M5 thread. If I ever did it again there's no way it could be took down to M4, so Michels mechanic, Ian, made that little thing which screwed onto the terminal, that way ever time I need to disconnect the battery I wasn't messing with the borderline M5 terminal :D

I did read somewhere that alloy tanks shouldnt be used if you plan to run Meths.

 

Really, that's a shame. I was going to pop up and have a look at some of the stuff they do as they are only about 30 mins from me.

 

Do you know the reasoning behind this Wez?

I thought methanol and aluminum reacted, therefore you should have plastic tanks.

That's correct Wez, water only for me now as the tank isn't plastic.

 

Looking great buddy :)

out of interest, is the cam gear cover a hacked up stocker? If so what is the finish on it?

Cheers Daman, yeah, the top bit is a HPF cover, it doesn't cover the front so I just had thefront cut off my old cover. It was just sprayed with a tin of metallic black paint from Halfrauds.

Looks great. Mind if I ask how much the custom WI tank was, and would it be ok to duplicate your version :innocent:

Cheers, it was around £90, that was with Motoscope sending them a drawing on the morn, & them having made it and sent it back for the next day. Course I don't mind bud :)
