Awesome mate. Well done B)

Mind you, that altenator looks less than stable on that bracket :unsure:

Thanks mate, yea the ATL has 4 blots holding it but they are not done up as it has to come back of , and thats why it dont look stable :whistling:

As already said it does sound like it's only firing a couple of cylinders but i assume that is down to the fact it only has a manifold on and the sound probably isn't that good on the vid.

Nevertheless it is always a good day when you start and engine for the first time. Looking forward to seeing/hearing it with the tubbie mate.

Well Thanks to Ellz B) i have a nice set of DBA, GOLD,s front & back for the IS, and by the looks of them they are not that old, just need to repaint the gold bits, and they will look good as new :) Thanks mate :winky:

i will fit them over the weekend, i should also have the turbo Down pipe all connected up to the exhaust, and turbo oil lines connected up, i will then take a new vid of the car, and it should sound alot better :whistling:

UPDATE!!!

Hi guys,

I got some more done on the car, last week i took my turbo Houseing to a Hotrod place i know, took it there as i have seen there work and its very good, i needed a pipe welded to the outlet so when i come to connect the hose to the it it will not hit the manifold, well i went and pick that up to day, and very nice job the guy did, I also got the pipe work for the rad done and thay are all connected up now, took the down/pipe of so i could weld 2 O2 sensor Nuts on it, thats all done and put back on the car, now i have the intercooler pipe work to line up and mark, then i can take it of to get welded.....
