so whats the plan we this wance finished?
thats interesting i have same inlet as you but my outlets are all at the back i want a takeoffs at the bottom like yours,, what intercooler you running?
Does this dipping stuff last well with all the heat that's generated? Only ever seen people do wheels and dash bits.
Start a MK2 buildOriginally Posted by mk2 stevie
RadTec Intercooler and Radiator see page 2..
Time will tell, Its actually baked on similar to powder coating ... so I hope so
Same as me will you need custom hose for inlet to intercooler?RadTec Intercooler and Radiator see page 2..
Custom hose? that sounds expensive. I hope its just a matter of cutting a hose I have down to fit but Ill let you know...
I do like that gold heat reflective stuff - I think I might just nick that idea for mine if you don't mind :-)
Not a problem. Where do you think I got the idea from?
Hope Ive got the right attachment... It bloomin done that again!!
The sliver backed sound proofing, is that called fat mat? If so where did you get it please? My mates looking for something like it.
Cheers.
Hey RallyRob Yeah its FatMat you can get it all over the place ebay, amazon or just search the web.. its about 40 quid for 10 sq ft

Some strange photos in that last post...!!
Anyway, I figured I should check in here and keep Wayne up to speed with my contributions to his car. So here we have one leather-trimmed dash:
Now my house move's out of the way and I'm back on the case, my parts should be completed very soon!
Si.
coming along great guns.... cheers Simon.. yeah accidentally put my brother inlaw and niece on... and dunno how to get the random pics off pmsl me and computermebobs don't get long..!
LOL! I did wonder what that one was about - thought it might have been some inside joke?
Dash looks lovely trimmed in leather - just got myself a flocked dash and parcel shelf from Yukspeed that arrived this week, if I hadn't done that I was seriously considering doing the same; it looks great btw. It's going to be a stunner of a motor.
PMSL mine was flocked from yuk too but change of plan, in my old age Ive decided on a little style over boy racer.. no offence intended..! :/
IMG_2882.jpgIMG_2882.jpgIMG_2884.jpg apologies for the burry handbrake pic ill get a better one tomorrow, pedal box is out again to sort the accelerator travel for better everyday road control...
None taken. I'm definitely not going for stripped out rally car these days either; been there, done that, worn the t-shirt.
I want nice carpets, soundproofing, headliner, plush door cards, comfy tilt-and-recline seats, so what if it's extra weight? Just wind the boost up a bit more LOL!
A little more progress today - the two halves of the steering column shroud are now trimmed in black leather with black topstitching:
Seriously fiddly and very time-consuming little so and so, this was!! But it should finish things off nicely once it's fitted.
I want that.
D'you not think it looks a bit like a camera...?
Looks like a Starwars extra in a Gimp leather mask... PMSL but cooooool can't wait to see it on my car.. cheers Matey..
Cant wait to see the Mada centre console covered now...A little more progress today - the two halves of the steering column shroud are now trimmed in black leather with black topstitching:

Yeah, I'm not looking forward to tackling that tomorrow! Gonna be tricky tricky, methinks...Cant wait to see the Mada centre console covered now...
wow
So, just as I predicted, the centre console was a complex affair! I've been on with it all night and all day but, finally, it's completed:Yeah, I'm not looking forward to tackling that tomorrow! Gonna be tricky tricky, methinks...
The inset panel where the stereo would normally sit took hours and hours! I can't say I'm in a hurry to do another one just yet... but when everything's fitted to the car, it should tie in nicely to the carpet (especially the leather accents on that).
You can see indents in the top part - these are where the switches live. Swan AVO have asked me to leave those covered for the time being as there's a plaque to sit over the top which they need to fit first.
Thoughts and comments always welcomed.
Si.
Beautiful work, just outstanding...

Thank you! Hopefully Wayne will be happy when he sees everything in the flesh
Yes great quality work.. Thanks !
WANTED..... T34 .63 turbo reconditioned or new... Does anyone have one to sell or know where I can buy one from?
Crikey... you want one that big? I think the original that came with my 4x4 lump was a .63, but it's worthless - the exhaust housing is cracked, the intake section is missing all the bolts and I wouldn't be surprised if I took it apart and the core was knackered. I was advised by two different companies that it was something like a 400bhp unit.
It was a big lump though. What power are you aiming for?
