[Scorpion]

With the vents in your bonnet,and all the rain over here(when you come over)your gonna be pretty busy polishing,with the rain spots on your polished bits.

No pics of car means you haven't cleaned it yet and its still in the same state as it was at JAE!!.

As usual we have Supras coming out of our ears

What do you need to know?

[Monster-Mat]

if the supra radiator would fit, i can get an all aluminium Fluidyne , pretty darn cheap

You could probably make it fit with surgery and custom made rad hoses etc.

We are aware that it may need a larger rad, and thought a custom made job would be better (and cheaper) than trying to modify an existing rad.

i can get a fluidyne for $500.

as far as i can see comparing poictures.the rad top pipe is in exactly the same place, bottom pipe im not sure about, but due to the fact its all working in my car with the IS rad.they cannot be that far off.

if anything its the "feet" and top mounts that are the concern, thats what id like the measurements for centre to centre and height width

custom is fine, till it gets broken!!

We don't have one here with the rad out at the mo, but we have one coming in next week for a cam belt change (which gives decebt access) so we'll measure it for you.

Tig welder at the ready eh

Thanks Mark..............its appreciated.

well you will be pleased to know its passed its First MOT/TUV inspection, with a few raised eyebrows........not sure what the score was with emmisions, as after it printed out, a quick glance, then straight in the bin............

was a nightmare getting it on the brake rollers.........and over the pit, and back off again :)

so, just need to get the bumper finished, the rear arches fitted, and a super special aerodynamic thingymebob fabricated at the back, and tested in a windtunnel

then i can bring it back over to be finished :)

That's great news Mat :D

Passed first time - very encouraging.

And no teething problems yet. I am surprised (and relieved) considering the mad scabble to get it to JAE

[Monster-Mat]

well the bumper is being worked on again.......now i know the girls come home from the hospital tommorow........

Here you go Pete

i recon it shoul;d be ready for painting in the week........then rear arch fitting, and then "secret" aero dynamic bits

[Rob]
