Thanks guys, its the first time ive actually got to stand back and look at in the sun being somewhat of a complete car and must say iam very happy with the way it all looks.
You lose motivation throughout the build but when you its so close just wanna get it registed asap now. Only just fiddle bits and pices now.

The bottles are mounted above the pedal box underneath the dash

So i havent been on here for a while as nothing major has changed, just been chipping away at the fiddly bits for when it comes to roadworthy and re registering it. I have been getting stuffed around lately so it would probably of been on the road about a month ago if you could rely on people.   

while i still hack away i thought i would get the boot finished off and trimmed so it still some what moving along.

only waiting on one more part which i have been told will take "1-2weeks" but iam not holding my breath and then ill be getting it registed and tuned. It wont be 100% complete but will look complete to everyone els. Just sick of waiting and is so close so ill fix up the small things once its on the road

New site looks good by the way

hey guys

well a bit of an exciting update, took the day off to take my car down to get registered and is know back on the road again after 5-6years.
Feels some what good and exciting knowing that is nearly finished off but still have some fiddly things to take care of but nothing major 

fingers crossed i can get it in to finally get it tuned again within the next few weeks, and then time to finally start enjoying driving it again

so after tune attempt 3 iam still having dramas with boosting so late and doesnt see full boost until about 5500-6000rpm and only making 250hp @ 14ps. So got over it and pulled all bolt on side of things off to find no wastegate valve seat which explains the boosting problem and done a pressure test on the system and all is good now. Also think the cam's a dialed in to late which is also making it very laggy but see how we go

So with a bit of luck i can get in to get a tune next week and hopefully get better results as this is starting to become an expensive exercise.

positive note finally have finished the interior and turned out pretty good
