As already said by everyone great car, great pics & great write up, looks like you had a great day :up:

I haven't added up how much I have spent, probably best not too 😂 still more to do as well, keeps me entertained!

I got my inspiration from your thread :smile: and the fact I have it written down and I am going to lose it before to long and forget what has been done :up:

All being well will have an interesting update later this week but for now thought I would get current spec list up for the cup, hadn't driven it for over a week as been in France driving an XC90 around on holiday, such a great feeling to get back in it and have a quick blast this evening :up:

Updated spec list as of 04/09/17 Engine and exterior: 182 manifold (Aug 17') Pure Motorsport exhaust (slash cut) & centre silencer with link pipe (Aug 17') Polybushed dogbone bush (On car when purchased) Skoda fabia front splitter (July 17') EPAS (May 17') Ph1 172 gearbox (Aug 17') Pure...

@MrBlonde @AlexW has a couple of sets he uses on his silver cup (black & white), don't know whether Mark @Dr Jekyll has any pics from the weekend with them on? If not I could get some pics next time I go over, probably not till next weekend though :up:

Look forward to seeing it with the new dash, never been a massive fan of flocking! Love my PMS shifter such a great mod, you can get round the extra noise it makes because of how good it is :up:

Not too bad :up: never managed to get good at welding myself, have tried a few times. Does anyone know if you can you buy complete sills or part sills? Is their a company who make them?

Car looking great as always Mark, credit to you, trophy well deserved! Might have to tap you up to help paint some bits for the cup :smile:

Good luck with the sale, hopefully won't take long, look forward to seeing what you are replacing with :up:

Arghh, wish I had kept my V6, life got in the way unfortunately, they are such a great car, did you buy it brand new? Is it standard other than the wheels?

My PMS rattles like that, like you say not all the time but still... I read somewhere, not sure it was on here that someone had put sand in the linkage between the bottom of the shifter and the gearbox and that made a difference. PMS also sell a weight that is supposed to help, although have...

Looking great as usual Mark :smile:

Renparts was the cheapest I could find when I looked for genuine Magnetti Marelli injectors, delivered in a couple of days too :up: I got them off their website rather than on eBay

Only a small update when we did all the work a few weeks ago noticed that that both the engine and gearbox mount were done for so swapped the engine one today for a brand new one and just need to organise the gearbox mount now. Did 100 miles today and all good :smile: Goosed engine mount...

Looking good! It's great getting things ticked off the list :up:

Will try and make it to this one, enjoyed the last one I went to, hopefully will be a good turn out :up:

Small update from today, changed the temporary 3mm rear spacers for 10mm hub axle spacers, what a pain in the arse it was fitting them :smile: won't be doing that again in a hurry. Couple of pics below when I got home, was thinking of going for 20mm spacers on the front but am liking the 16mm at...

It's a work in progress Dan, much appreciated on the gearbox, it's gone to a good home :up:

Looks great still, such a great colour, looks like you have some interesting bit's planned, look forward to seeing what happens with it :up:

Cheers @OssPoop much appreciated, have just gone back and looked at the pics on the first page when it arrived, it has come a long way you don't really realise till someone points it out :smile: just enjoying messing with it :up:

The fitting is pretty straightforward, although someone else actually fitted it :smile: I was there though, it's the adjustment that takes the time, we got it so that all 5 gears are perfect and reverse needs a little gentle persuasion at the minute, am hoping to tweak again, it's best if...

It helps I have an Alex down the road :smile: it is getting there just doing what I want to it really no real plans for taking it on track etc. although think I am going to try and get a passenger ride on track soon so I may well get the bug for it :up:

You won't be disappointed by the PMS, I had mine fitted this weekend :up:

I keep meaning to get some paint on my calipers, are you having them painted or powder coated? I have put Spax RSX coilovers on, I wasn't supposed to be as the cup shocks and springs were new all round just before i bought mine earlier this year but these things happen! I am still tweaking them...

It makes a massive difference to the shift, a lot more direct and accurate, you can feel the shift a lot more a lot less vague. I was tempted by the BMS but a few people said go the whole hog and get the PMS so I did, also helped that one got offered to me and I got to test drive in a Ph1 first...

It's getting there :smile: From what I understand will help in the mid range and lose a bit at the top end, it feels quicker but that could just be the fact I had all that work done at the same time and am sure when I have a remap and get the most out of it will make a difference but can't...

Well it was a busy day yesterday, didn't get many pics during because I'm a bit hopeless :smile: I was helping with the work though so that's my excuse New OEM Valeo clutch in situ PMS gear shift in place, very interesting picture 😂 Beautiful wrapping and tinfoil on the manifold...

Hopefully you don't end up breaking it, it would be a shame as it looks great but you have to do what you have to do, hopefully you find a buyer soon :up:

Looking good, making some good progress, look forward to seeing the wheels, I was running the cooksports up until yesterday they ride well am sure you won't be disappointed :up:
