Hey guys noob on the forum. Said hello in the "hello" section a week or so ago.

Few pics i took today. I hate being lazy and not finding a nice back drop for pics but i do have an excuse... It has no mot :).

All detailed and final little jobs sorted before MOT tomorrow. Though i would whore up a few new pics of the dc2 now i have finished the interior and bay tuck to some degree. Ohh actually still need to fit sump baffles, flocked expansion tank and Racespec shifter doh!!

Let me know what you think overall, remember i did everything bar the flocking myself lol so dont be expecting too much haha...

Serious teg mate n you done a good job man keep us updated :)
 
great progress !
i noticed you removed the p/s you looped it or you changed the rack ?
 
Cheers guys, few little jobs still to do but i have just under a month to get them done as i have Oulton on May 20th and a few sessions at Mallory the day after at PPC on the 21st :D.

Abunai: Idealy i wanted to take the rack out and grease the rack with CV boot grease but we just didnt have time when doing the wire tuck/bay shave as i only had a month in the workshop before i litrally had to move everything out. We ended up looping the system in such a way that when it is filled it actually fills the rack rather than half way like you see alot of people doing. In time i will look at greasing it up but to be honest the steering feels amazing. We did try and combat some of the extra force needed to move the fluid around in the rack by using very thin oil.
 
What a transformation :)) that engine bay is one of the best I've seen, super clean mate!
 
came along way from the chavtastic teg that you bought! well done! :drool:
 
Unbelievable! Can't believe it used to look like that, thats top work mate - great job !
