Ric Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 You need to explain how you did the wire tuck this is what i want/need lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
abtin90 Posted October 9, 2015 Share Posted October 9, 2015 Looks beautiful great work on the bay. I would dye to carpet ASAP though as it really lets the interior down. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berg Posted October 9, 2015 Author Share Posted October 9, 2015 (edited) You need to explain how you did the wire tuck this is what i want/need lol Its basically a case of numbering every wire before and after where you are going to cut them, then cut the loom, extending the wires inside the wing to wherever the fuse box is going and soldering them all back up again, time consuming but worth it Things like ignitor pack etc just need extending aswell and running inside the wing too My fuse box is inside the glove box so i avoided extending some wires, like the 2 big plugs that sit next to the fuse box, i was able to trace them back into the large grommet on the bulkhead and route them through there with the rest of the loom. I have a lot of pics from the process i could upload which might help, its satisfying when its done Looks beautiful great work on the bay. I would dye to carpet ASAP though as it really lets the interior down. Thanks, interior overhaul is next on the cards, i already have the dye for the carpet Fully flocked interior with carbon dash panels and some nice Recaro seats is what I'm going for Edited October 9, 2015 by berg (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

berg Posted December 2, 2015 Author Share Posted December 2, 2015 (edited) Made a start on the engine bay changes today even though the engine is coming out shortly Got all the new hoses on, and the new idler pulley Just waiting for the new fittings for the power steering tank and a new air filter Some more shiny bits are on there way also, new cam pulleys, custom engine boxes and a few other bespoke items Whole bay needs a serious polish it looks crap currently Edited December 2, 2015 by berg (see edit history) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DMY23 Posted December 3, 2015 Share Posted December 3, 2015 Looks much better with the black hoses, to keep with theme I would change the blue and red AN fittings for black ones. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
berg Posted December 29, 2015 Author Share Posted December 29, 2015 Currently looks like this Still a fair bit to do Custom engine boxes will be ready soon Ordered a new air filter as the blue doesnt look very good now Also waiting for mops and compound to arrive so i can get the parts back to former glory Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
