little bit of an update, have just been trying to get it going lately, I am trying to work out the computer and I probably need to fidle around with the fuel table a bit to get it going. At least she runs when you pour fuel down the inlet haha.

Have also been doing final little bits of body work and getting ready for paint which is coming next week, depending on the weather i might do a little bit of painting next week on maybe the doors and guards..
But my main aim at the moment is to get it going properly..

have been plumbing up the intercooler lately, it's probably the funnest job on the car so far! will get some photo's when i get my camera back.. also need to change my alternator because im getting some rad voltage spikes and im guessing it from when i go the old wires burning to pieces in the old loom and may have stuffed the int voltage regulator..

righto, have done a bit lately, and i am quiting my job in two weeks so i can get this thing done!
changed the alternator with another one i had lying around, i gave it a quick polish too and it came up pretty good!
also pretty much finished the intercooler piping, I just have to get a mate to weld up some of it, but it is all tacked together. also slapped a bit of paint on today because we had the sun out so i thought i better make the most of it! will hopefully have the whole car painted in the next week or two... hopefully haha. also made up some 2inch blocks for the back and shes pretty sacked now, and sitting on the bumpstops so i'll have to do something about that for cert! and also need to lower the front another inch or two.

bit of progress lately. painted the rest of the car which im stoked about! just need to sort out different flares then i'll paint them, and i also need to put another coupe of coats on a guard which i have sanded back because she had a few runs in it because it was my trial paint panel haha.

and i have a bunch of pics but it wont let me upload them because "Sorry, the board attachment quota has been reached"
