Forgot to say there McGard are on eBay for £105 inc delivery, but I'm waiting for a price from Keith Price who I'm hoping will beat that price.

Is that mcgard black chrome with or without the Sti

Cannon Fodder

iTrader: (100)

That's the STi version but try the link below

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/McGard-Ins...item20cde082f1

That's only a set of 16 but contact them to see if they'll supply you with an extra four to make the set of 20, plus to confirm the fitment which I believe is correct.

Try Rays Duraluminium ones.

Dave, have a look at the link below they won't be cheap with import duty and shipping but these should fit the bill.

What semi slick have you decided to go for Ty?

I remember you mentioning some on fb, just wondering on any updates of choice.

I haven't even decided on the tyres yet Geraint, I do have a set of 18" Prodrive PFF7's which will require a refurb and the tyres will be going on them but that's a little while off yet.

I think though it will be a full road tyre that will be used, I've always liked the Falken FK452's and will be trying the newer FK453's next I believe.

Big thanks to Simon for putting me onto a set of McGard STi wheel nuts which he saw for a sale, needless to say I bought them at a bargain price.

Can't say

If anyone is after some tyres I have a brand new set of RE070's for sale here.. 225/45/17

Have to thank Ty for meeting up today as he's doing me a big favour.... And a great bit of luck that I popped onto a FB group earlier to pass 5 minutes

Cannon Fodder

iTrader: (100)

Might be.

No problem Simon, mission accomplished well part one of it anyway.

Pity they're not 18'' tyres as I'll be after a set in the not too distant future, but they are a really good tyre and and shouldn't hang around for too long.

I know that's you Tubby.

You've got to play nice in the public areas of Scoobynet as you've been told before.

What price do you have the re070's up for?

I'm looking at running a 225 for a bit more width.

Falken 453s are good. wet/damp conditions... had toyos t1rs, paradas spec 2s , re050as , and must say 453s felt best...

So it was crunch time today and I spent the entire day on Ty's car.
First off I got the Alternator/aircon/PAS brackets plus aircon tensioning bracket prep'd for paint followed by a coat of etch/primer/black paint to make them look top notch again being in a poor state.
Next job on the list was to cut a bigger opening in the inner wing,this is needed because with Ty now wanting to run a HUGE KN filter on the end of his CAIK,more room is required to allow it to fit in the area which means moving the pipes over and down that run through the inner wing,bit annoyed as I still need a little more clearance but another cut with the air cutter will see that right lol.
Once the butchering was done I got the PAS pump and alternator/aircon pump cleaned up,coupled with the fresh painted brackets they look good once more.

Then it was time to start bolting things back into place,first was getting the SC50 billet bolted down,all pretty straight forward after cleaning up the mating surface.
Then the inlet manifold was next again after cleaning up the head mating surface,2 sets of gaskets required here as Ty runs a 10mm spacer.
Once I had that bolted down in place and all wires connected up I then put the alternator,aircon pump and PAS pump onto there brackets I had already installed.

Next on was the IC pipes followed by putting the battery in place and to finish I installed the header tank as well.

very nice work m8

now put it down and get back to the job in hand

Great stuff...

Cannon Fodder

iTrader: (100)

I'm genuinely very happy with the car and what Ryan has done, I didn't realise that Ryan was going to go down to the level of detail that he has in terms of even freshening up the AC and alternator brackets and adjusters.

Ryan really did go at it today and have worked like a trojan to get it to the stage it's at, I really can't thank him enough.

It's nice to see the SC50 in it's rightful position as well Ryan.

The Stitcher

iTrader: (12)

Nice work guys, you will have a real animal when it's finished ty, nice attention to detail and reminds me of when I worked at old school engineering and every little part had to be re freshed or replaced , good work guys and ty any chance you could take me for a spin once done ? As I feel the itch for another scoob but haven't been in one for along time now and foget what they are like, do mis the scooby community

Looks very nice ty, ryan has done a superb job

But perhaps the water pipes to the expansion vessle can be re-routed as it looks like you have red octopus attacking your engine

Cannon Fodder

iTrader: (100)

No problem Lee you're more than welcome to have a go in either the passenger or drivers seat when it's completed.

You're 100% correct with the finish level Lee, I'm really impressed with Ryan's attention to detail and finish.

The pipe work isn't finished yet Danny,it will all be tied down and tidied after I make up the new fuel pipe which incorporates the new regulator.
I need all pipe in place so I get it in its right position.

Nice work Ryan. A superb job...

iTrader: (6)

Looking good Ryan, it's nice to see all the pipe work the same shade of red! Ty, I bet you're a happy man, it looks like the finish line is in sight.

Cannon Fodder

iTrader: (100)

I'm very happy with the finish, I haven't seen it in the flesh yet but looking at the pics it's going to look brilliant.

And having the pipework matching will certainly help the engine bay shine.

Ryan has done a lot of work removing the DV port from the intercooler pipework and the breather ports from the turbo inlet pipe - a lot of this will be unseen but it makes it all look like it was factory installed.
