Haha. To be my first time driving a right hand drive, i was satisfied. But its konvertet to N/A somit goes like a fiat. It maybe got 200 hp and it got a diff from a auto.. That mean higher ratio. I did also have wrong sparkplugs so it was cutting between 4-6 000 rpm, that realy sucks when you try to get smooth lines.

But anyways, i did deliver som parts for galvanizing (engine bay, rollcage screws and door locks(?)) on thuesday:


They are on its way now.
This is before pictures:






And here is some pictures of my rollcage, anyone who have seen it before?














It cost me over 100$ so i hope it wil be nice

Best regards
Joachim

 

I think it looks little bit better than the old stuff:

Is this a show car? Do you plan on racing it?

 

Its wil be my daily driver/drift car and a little show. But i wil not have any stereo ore anything..

 

amazing, all i can say is more pics.

 

Could you post a pic of the wide rear on the driver side? (gas tank side) I'm wondering if you modified the gas tank door any to make it flush.

 

Thank you, il post more pics when il do more

I have modefied it because i wil usa a sparco(its not sparco, but simlar one made in the uk) gas tank door:


This is a old one, but this is how it wil look like.

I picet up some stuff from paint and i have also delivered all the brakelines and more brackets for galvanizing.

Some more pics:

 

Anyone who knows how the gasket and the bracket is monted? I cant remeber:


Then we was i littlebit closer to the finish.
Joachim

 

Bad-***.

 

ANYONE?

 

^

Although I have never even worked on a brake boost/ MC from the looks of it flip the silver part around and it should be good. It is much more likely that the sealing side meets the gasket than the flat metal side

 

Aha, i wil turn it i not anyone else comes up with another ansvere..
Thank you

Now i have montes some more.
Now i begining to find out were everthing is located.











I did also paint the Oil coolers and some bracets

Hopefully i wil pickup the brake lins and the bracets tomorow from the galvanize shop.

The car wil have its preimier the 10 may, so i got enough to do after school..

Good Night
Joachim

I like the hood very much. I would by a RE N1 to trade you if you didnt live in Norway.

 

Thank you. I realy love your car man.

WOW. What a price!
Thank you for finding it.

Joachim

 

looks pretty sweet man!!

 

Nice progress. Lookin good.. So, how much would it cost to get you to come over to the states and paint my car and put it back together??

 

Priceless. hehe.

Thank you.

I did put in the engine today. I was suposed to get som help, but the help never showed up so i did it alone. (I did not think it would go, but i worked out fine)

here are some pictures



I was sceptical about the BILTEMA lifter, but i did not break this time eather.



They were so ugly so i gave them a round with paint. I hope it wil not effect the oil temp.


Here is a happy mechanic.




Now its in.

 

No radiator yet so maybe w should wait to fill it up






Look at this picture, the one in the bottom is taken 29 mars 2006 and the one abow is taken 29 april 2007.



I did also update my site. www.turbo-kid.com

Good Night everyone.
Joachim

 

did it by yourself???
i would been too scared to put any scratches on that new paint in eng. bay.
how did it go? any scratches?
if you managed to put it in without any scratches, all i have to say is "YOU ROCK!!"
nice work.

 

Hehe. I dont rock but yes it worked out fine alone.
No scratches or anything.

Only thing I hate now, is that i didnt paint the engine in the same colour of the car and polish all the alu. But then i got more to do next year.

Joa
