Well I don't know about you but I think it suits!!!! P.s. it was a good challenge getting it in by my self without scratching it

Slowly making more progress. Got the fuel system all sorted today. Also got a nice new windscreen installed over the new year.

Good work, who did the windscreen?

[SRCooper]

Thanks. Novus did it. Actually got it supplied and fitted for free due to a glitch in there system so that was a bonus.

After owning the Ls1 for two years now i finally got to hear it start, only for a short blast but still a huge relief it works!!! Hers a link to the video https://www.facebook.com/stewart.cooper ... nref=story" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Dude that is awesome! Such a good feeling hearing that first start up. Sweet flames too haha

Keeping with the factory looking engine bay i managed to hide a fan in the factory shroud, also turns out the lower radiator hose from the car when trimmed fitted perfectly for the top hose!!!

How's this going?, Any updates??

[SRCooper]

Sorry for no updates lately, I brought a Hilux over the new year and have been doing a bit on that, doing heaps of 4wding so the fairlady went on hold unfortunately. The main glitch has been the headers, there isnt much room and nothing off the market will ever fit so i guess ive been procrastinating doing it. If anyone in christchurch owns a tig welder i could hire off them would be awesome? I recently did a block course for my apprenticeship on Welding and did a bit of tig so now feel real confident to make them myself just need the parts and welder. I got the hatch on today and passenger door so small things are happening but really need to get onto finishing it.

If you don't end up making your own headers I highly recommend hitting up Nick Murchison of Motorsport Fabrication Services he does some amazing exhaust work!
