Hey, heres a pic of the car with the engine in, the front bumper has to be finished off, i will start that when the cars up at the performance mechanic getting the turbo put in, u can see the Fuel pressure regulator near the dizzi cap in the engine bay, all the rest such as cam and head work can not be seen :P

looks good mate, definitely interested in what you did and how it comes out, bumper looks wicked, would like to know somethings about the bumper, and i was thinking of working on the 4 cyl engine but i'll just go for the 6g72 dohc tt, but love to hear how it'll come out in the end

if u use msn, would u mind adding me a_lotta_stuff@hotmail.com, i'm gonna need all the input i can get into how the bodykit u got started, what problems u had, what u used etc...(i know its not finished, but your getting there) and i like your engine, like i said before.

And i was wondering if you think it would be easier to simply put in the 6g72 dohc tt engine in a 4 cyl magna then turboing it, which i think is what u did. ( i know the engine mounts dont line up and the gearbox is different to the v6 one, or so i have been told) But yeah, how much is it costing ya so far?

Cheers,

Dave

the original bumper isnt there only the top lining, u have to sand the bumper with 80 grade sand paper or something similar, as you can see in the pic thats how i started off, if youse want me to post up a new post and a few pics of how it all started and to were im at now, haha about one month of just sanding :( wich i dont have time for.

nope i piked it up, for a cheap price and it just happened to be a manual with new clutch...if you want proof of engine work and other stuff like that, just view all my threads, it keeps me from repeating my self. im working on the fuel pump atm, i just pulled it out today and i dont know how in earth im going to fit this new (Beast) bosch 910 fuel pump in. heres a comparison of the to pumps, and yes i already know u can buy one that fits in place to replace the old one, but i want this one in there, just wondering if youse have any input or want to know anything else.

what do you mean fitted, the turbo?, if you red properly what i just told you before by looking at my other posts you will realise that i stated, "the turbo will not be in the car till i have sent it up to the performance shop to get the turbo installed, thats incl, ECU, FMIC piping, turbo manifold and 3'exhaust. i will repeat my self agen just for those people who need 2 be told twice, all i have done is work the internals of the engine so that when i put the turbo on it will be able to handle it, this includes some mods such as heavy duty valve springs, stage 2 turbo cam (from RPW) stage 2 port and polish and some other ods and ends, im not going to bother coping receipts for proof i dont think i need to go that far, the ones that have been reading my posts will understand.
