Westy Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 Love the covers mate. Think of have to have to have them mirror polished through. The machining marks would annoy me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cheers mate, your right it's not the prettiest finish, I told him I would polish them myself though Polished then anodised for me I think he's making black anodized set next I'll have to get a picture.

Thanks mate, I'm sure there's alot more to it than pushing a few buttons! Less than 24 hours now before the car goes out of my sight and into the capable hands of SRD Its a shame I don't have the covers yet to bring with me tomorrow but I'll send them in the post more than likely next week then once these go on the rest of the parts can start going on and practically finish off the engine. Such an exciting time for me as I've been dying to see the finished engine with all the parts I've been collecting over the past couple of years. I'll make sure to grab some pictures tomorrow Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll make sure to grab some pictures tomorrow Excited for you to bud and can imagine how you must be feeling looking forward myself to seeing this monster of an engine in its final resting place, I can't wait for my car to go in now so hopefully not long. Do you know how long Lee will have your car for finishing of everything he needs to do? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kaan W Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 Wastegates have all been refurbed with new diaphragms etc and Zircotech coated. Turbo oil lines installed with heat proof sleeving. Aftermarket lower water elbow was needed cause of the size of the turbo, it also looks a bit better than stock And that's it until tomorrow... http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=192201&d=1412364548 http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=192200&d=1412364535 http://www.mkivsupra.net/vbb/attachment.php?attachmentid=192199&d=1412364518 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Westy Posted October 3, 2014 Share Posted October 3, 2014 £670 + £170 shipping from America. £170 shipping!? I take it that's all import duties and taxes also mate!? Seems very high!? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kaan W Posted October 3, 2014 Author Share Posted October 3, 2014 £170 shipping!? I take it that's all import duties and taxes also mate!? Seems very high!? I hope so mate, I paid in full before questioning the break up of the shipping total. It does seem steep for something that weighs less than 2lbs. Perhaps it's a super express next day deliverey Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
