    Got the manifold back yesterday. Looks much better. Then after sanding out most of the imperfections in it as it was a bit battered It is now ready to be taken to Powdercoaters today. Also started polishing up a few things. Not finished yet but getting there. Also started on the alternator and a few other bits. As it was a nice day we got the coilovers fitted which was a pain in the back side but it's pretty much done. Will upload pictures later on once fitted properly....

    Today did a bit more, It looked like this at the start of the day Notice the welded patch on the intake. Looks terrible! Took off the manifold, belt tensioner, alternator, and a couple of brackets. Cleaned up a few things. All these items will be going to the Powdercoaters this week. The intake manifold has been drilled and then patched over so is going to local place to be fixed then coated. Better pic of the manifold. Here is a pic is the hole from the inside. More updates once all been fixed etc.

    I am looking at taking the alternator apart to get the case powder coated and possibly the pulley. I am struggling getting the pulley off. I have taken off all the bolts/screws that I can see but it will not come apart. Anyone got any tips? Thanks.

    Lol! Definitely look like the rs but they are a cheaper alternative and if your not going for 1st in a show then they are fine.

    Ok so I did a little this evening. The term one step forwards two steps back come to mind right about now! My ht leads arrived and thought I would fit them. Removing the old ones then this happened.... And then this ..... Same lead! Then this end was stuck... On the right is what it should look like..... On the left is what it should look like... After 20 minutes off pulling and prying this happened and it pulled out the coilpack terminal. So coilpack is now broken too! On the plus side I got some of my many many grommets in. Looks a bit better If anyone has a spare coilpack send it my

    Been slacking a bit these past two weeks. Been mocking up the boost pipes as its pretty short for space due to the short runner. New coilovers arrived too with new top mounts. Also having some trouble fitting the intercooler as its pretty big. And with the corrado rad it's a bit of a squeeze again. Will get back on it this week. List of things to do: -fit intercooler -fit boost pipes -fit gauges inside -fit braided fuel lines -mount Bosch 044 inline pump -fit exhaust -fit radiator and inline filler neck -tidy up wiring inside car -fit brake servo and master cylinder -connect brake lines to c
