Next weekend is Bank Holiday and I have got my hands on a fully equipped Hangar, ramps, tools etc.

Pippyrips is supposed to be detailing his car.

I intend to fit the turbo inlet hose at last!, the ancillary hose kit all in a nice shade of red and straighten up the bigger I/C. While it's all off I'll re-paint the inlet manifold.

So, if you need to use a hangar and are free next weekend drop me a PM.

Mr D and Blockhead if your still up for it

Oh yes, I have the V5/6 JDM STi I/C with the dump valve and it's pipes for sale.

 

yeah im still up for giving a hand. im sure dan (blockhead) will be as well. will ask him just in case he doesnt see this

 

 

Could anyone change my Up-pipe for me up there?

 

yeah if there is room. and maybe if there is some heat just in case things get tight!
i need to do mine as well at some point. or just try and get my heatsheild to say and not rattle. lol

 

Calvin, I'll have the hangar for three days. Pippyrips is due in on Saturday. There is heat and air gun grinders.

 

If anyone needs a hand on Saturday, let me know.

Sunday I'll be attending the Mewla Rally.

 

I could make saturday but i dont have a clue how to change it

 

This is still on.

Drop me a text if your in. Pippy ain't coming, it's little Ellies Birthday.

Calvin, airguns etc are ready.

 

It's been emotional 3 days but it's now all done. Well nearly.

The induction hose was pretty shot through





The end was almost rotted away.

It was relatively easy but I used a digital camera and a laptop to have a running record of the removal of the bits. The fuel rail was not to bad coming off but going on it's a bit of fun.I now have a ****laod of spare coolant hoses.







The inlet manifold ws a bitch to clean and took 18 hours and about 6 coats of Hammerite Smooth and an undercoat of aluminium primer.





Chris, (WRX,STI) I'll call you about the Prodrive Y Pipe

The end

 

Very nice bit of work there, well done Looks

 

Lightweight Pulleys next.

 

Top job there Ian

 

looks very nice

 

That's a job and a half to undertake... well done Ian it looks miles better

 

Top work Ian I couldnt make it due to not having the car back from the bodyshop till 12 on saturday and then remembering i didnt have manifold gaskets

 

Looking good Ian, really need to get mine off and paint it or finish polishing the other one i started.
Pulleys are easy to do, you'll probably find u need to use an impact gun on the alternator one to get it undone

 

That's a lot of cleaning there Ian, top job, worth it in the end

 

Well done Ian, that is a tough and patient job to take on, end result looks great mate!!

 

Top job Ian , the engine bay looks great with all those red hoses and the red throttle body you'll have to be in the next shown and shine event.

 

looks great ian

 

nice work ian

 

Looking good captain !

 

Very nice work old boy!

Would have been there myself, but still haven't ordered my discs yet, trying to get the most out of the ones i have. I know they are on their last legs but they dont seem to want to die!!

 

May need a hand soon to do the pulleys. Next weekend is looking good.

 

Looks good, did you use self-etching primer before applying the red top coat?.

 

 

'rigster I prepped the manifold with aluminium primer.

I have now fitted the newage undertray to match the WRX top mount.

Took a bit of fiddling and fettling but managed to fabricate the brackets to hold the rubber shroud. Most oif the bit's I had lying around in the shed and some scrap alloy plate from work.

I'll post up some picks when I get home.
