We sure did lol, if only I had of known that in the past LOL
that just from the sheer amount you've boughtlmao
ive bought a load of stuff in the past from tweeks, they take your name and postcode after every purchase aswell, but why?
on the hunt for something to take to pvs 2010!!!
To find you on there database perhaps??? Most mail order companies have to tread pretty carefully these days to avoid scammers trying to fraudulantly purchase stuff using other peoples details. I'm sure they know what they are doing.
it's a C20XE not a fookin Redtop FFS
So they can send you a load of crap through the post
I pledged the other night that I would read through this thread when I got time and I wasn't dissapointed. I am amazed that this isn't one of the 50+ page project threads on here as this craft is beyond hardcore, some great engineering gone into it already, hell the only thing I could 'knock' (being my miserable bastard pessimistic self) is the nitrous solenoids cable tied in place and the fact your bottom pulley bolts don't match!lmao
Fantastic car, glad I am now subscribed to this thread and won't miss any updates.
What's the damage on those mental slicks and the banded wheels if you don't mind me asking? Feel free to PM it or just say 'F*ck off!' lmao
You only have to do a very few things right in your life so long as you don't do too many things wrong.

''THE REAL ROB''
Wayne do you really think I would leave it like that....come on ffs, getting all the tig work done at once and wanted to wait until exhaust was made up so that and the inlet can be done at the same time. Thanks for nice comments from yourself and Nuss

inlet manifold is insane... i wish i had means at disposal.. and or MONEY
fantastic project mate
Update
Car is now home after 2 months! and more at the level I wanted it to be at. Thanks to James @ Nortech for making the manifold for me I just wish it had not taken so long as its been hold up after hold up on this entire build but the spec has gone silly too, so its partly my own fault.Not sure if James took me to seriously about the up-pipe and left me to cut the holes in the panels LOL
It is now fitted with Garrett GT4088 twin scroll turbo and 2 Tial 44mm external wastegates, manifold also has take offs for EGT monitoring on every cylinder and has 2 different styles of downpipe so to speak!
Very pleased with my manifold even though it took a long time to come together. All constructive comments welcomed as always but do not ask silly questions as to why I have done this/that its because I want to but if you see a problem im all ears. This turbo is of course going to break things along the way but no one over here (UK) can be arsed to push the boundries and spend more than a fiver lmao There are things I have overlooked to because I am not made of money but im sure the weak link will be found soon enough!
This car will still remain road legal as much as possible and does have a normal style downpipe and silencer for road use, some new traction bars are going to be made to eliminate torque steer as much as possible as most of it comes from bush flex in Novas/Corsa etc and I have broken a standard tie bar with 400 ish bhp before.
I now have some fibreglass front widened wings to use with the wider rim and tyre setup which gives the car a more street look if nothing else.
Next thing to sort out is radiator placement and get one made up, source the materials to make 2 sets of screamer pipes, one out of bonnet for some fun runs at the pod and some back into the system for road use as I cannot see mapping whilst listening being all that great with them open under the car!
Injector driver should be here any day now and once that is here the loom will be finished. All of the fuel system needs to be redone now as it was spec'd for a GT30 and fairly small fuel rail, new fuel rail which can accept up to -10 JIC fittings is being fitted to my inlet this week and I will need bigger return lines, regulator, swirl pot and another pump ideally so I can run end feeds and centre return at the rail.
Inlet should be back with me by the end of the week and I hope this is not another 2 month wait.
Its gone abit mad I know but I do not have much outgoings a month and I work hard 6 days a week so it will get there soon enough.
As most of you know my main aim for the car is a 10 second pass be it on treads or not it will happen, I will not give up, still a long way to go but over Christmas should see a fair bit getting done.
Hope you all like it.
YO to the haters !
