Lookin well mate, when are you out on the track again?

Great work man

 

[robbyp]

We'll I got everything trimmed and drilled the way I wanted it today, was originally gonna paint them black but friend of mine suggested just clear coating the metal.
So I just gave the metal a rub up with fine emery and lacquered them and popped them on
This is how it looks now

Forgive the light and trim panel still off, waiting to sort out my exhaust before I put rear bumper, trim and light back in

I got the bay resprayed before I fitted the K so just hadn't as big a job cleaning it there. Try to keep on top of it now

 

[gwalker124]

Yeah it looks spotless mate, makes sense to respray the bay if your putting a nice new engine in

 

[robbyp]

We'll it was spotless when I first got it sprayed and did the conversion over a year ago but it's still not bad too bad.

 

[robbyp]

Got a wee camera so hopefully will get videoing some of the races?

And New helmet and Hans

[robbyp]

Haha I think your right

We'll after making the 3" exhaust and getting it all together on on the car I got the car final mapped, few wee things to do and were ready to rock for the first race of the season this sat. Here's a pic of the dyno graph
