All the sensors and everything required for future plans. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160531/cb53ad2a3d668e889fa0e2a92ff00f78.jpg Have also got clear cam cover for when I change the cams, top carbon front cam cover as well. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160531/6ae5d8f7779535a6dbd9a8cb5921e804.jpg Carbon bonnet dampers which only just work due to the weight of the bonnet. http://uploads.tapatalk-cdn.com/20160531/c072aad4aff8444050a04ae924566cc7.jpg Aero catches on the bonnet and the boot lid.

Why T Posted June 8, 2016 Author Share Posted June 8, 2016 So more progress The exhaust has been done although it was a nightmare. Sits a bit to low and I know I'm gonna scrape it. Custom exhaust to fit around the fuel tank. 4" down pipe wrapped in titanium exhaust wrap to the titanium exhaust. 4 " straight through with 4" tip[emoji51][emoji16][emoji51][emoji23] gonna be rather loud. The flat under trays have been fitted although the rear one is a bit to heavy so left it off. The custom fuel fillers are being redone to fit properly and welded in place. Battery relocation pretty much done. Fuel lines and pump are also in place. Just waiting on a top hard pipe to come from Mr R M Polishing then hopefully she will be started this week for the first time in many many years. Aaahhhh I have also sent down my alu spark cover to R M Polishing and have given him free reign to do what he will to it. I have no idea what he is doing so nervous but excited Fortune03 Aerotop manual single. 'Speed doesn't kill' Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Why T Posted June 9, 2016 Author Share Posted June 9, 2016 Things are moving along. Got the front undertray on. Hks ssbov fitted hidden away under N/S head light. Front license flipper fitted. Hopefully I won't rip it off :/ Top rad pipe fitted, nice pic of engine bay. Cannot wait for the spark plug cover to go on. Will set it off. Carbon fiber blanking plates fitted with the cal switches and heated seats switches in situe. Toucan display also nice and flush. Re doing the fuel filler pipes as they didn't sit correctly so have a new angle going on The fill caps I found sit nicely. We are nearing completion for road worthiness soon and hopefully she will be started for the first time in many many years tommorow. Hopefully :-/ Fortune03 Aerotop manual single.

Why T Posted June 30, 2016 Author Share Posted June 30, 2016 Right, nearing the time. HID 6k all round with custom indicators. Washer jets placed in carbon scuttle plate, wiper arms refurbished with new wiper blades. Fuel tank complete at last. Return line and breather pipes placed in the top. Changed the angle of the fuel filler pipes to how it looks. New battery relocated to boot. Love how this looks. But still needs a carpet and a install. And just a nice pic of how she sits. Looks really good So mot should be next week with mapping booked for Tuesday if all goes well. Can't wait as I should be able to go down for the mapping.

Why T Posted November 20, 2016 Author Share Posted November 20, 2016 So she is home. Just tinkering now to get her perfect but it's been over two years since I started the continuation build and close to 9 years since before the build started. Well happy. Just a few more things to tinker with now and will be perfect. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
