So I've had this car for just under a year now and I've just found a 19k engine, box and loom for it.



Just going through some wiring diagrams to decide on the best way to join the modified loom to the original.

This car had many different engines over the years since arriving in the UK. The guy who owned it before me has fitted his own fuse and relay boxes and a stack dash. So it's not straight forward, but not impossible.



I plan on running it as standard, but with a custom down pipe and 4" straight pipe (home bodgery) and front mount intercooler (more home bodgery). Assuming that's going to need a remap, who do you recommend in the UK for rotary tuning?



Feel free to ask questions or give advice.

​​​​​​I'll be putting some more updates here as I go.

Cheers ✌️

 

this really doean't belong in this section. i suggest u start a build thread.

 

Moving this to Gen 2 Discussion. Good luck with it.

 

Ah, apologies gentlemen

 

hayward rotary is supposed to be really good they did team greens fc

 

Cheers man. I'll bare them in mind. I'll go out of my way for a decent tuner. Also heard bout a place much closer to me (WGT auto developments) that tuned a mates FD. They also do chips for the turbo 2. So I'm leaning towards them at the moment.

 

So I'm making some progress. I found some really helpful wiring diagrams via a link in another thread.

I've decided to strip away anything unnecessary and move all fuses and relays into the cockpit. It no longer has the original clocks and the dash isn't in good condition, so I'm going to make a sheet steel dash to mount everything.

Also found a link to the STACK ST8100 dash manual

The stack sensors seem bloody expensive though. I have none. Only the loom and the dash itself. But I've always wanted one since the days of flicking through deemon-tweeks catalogues, so if others won't work then I guess I'll have to bite the bullet.

Happy new year lads

 

Picked up some 0.8mm steel to make a dash since the original was in a right state.



Got the rough shape of the curve from the original dash.



Went for something simple, so I could reduce the need for welding.



Offered it up.



Trimmed the excess off the bottom and rounded the corners off leading to the centre console.

Not bad for £10. Still a way to go, but so far so good.

 

I've heard these guys were good too, but they've apparently moved from the address that is on their website. Does anyone on here know their new address by chance?
