R500BRT - Boosted Beany 182....

[robbie1988]

Well nothing huge to report but the parts collecting is going well, just had the following delivered:

- R26 fuel rail with clips and injectors

- SFS hoses for dump valve and vacuum lines

- Speedline fitting kit for the gold 2108 wheels

Got to be honest I spent £35 on the fitting kit as I wanted the genuine Speedline one - the spigot rings are clipped to the wheels with a cir-clip so they don't come off everytime the wheel does.

By the end of the week I should have a lot more parts through and can start getting some more bits fitted in prep for getting the turbo conversion fitted in a few months time.

Also decided on tyres for the new Speedlines - going for 205/45/16 Federal 595 RS-R's as want to get a trackday in the this year if I have the time.

More bits gathered ready for the car progressing....

Vibratechnics engine & gearbox mounts:

Megane 225 NGK plugs:

All new stainless jubilee clips for the turbo kit:

Eibach front camber bolts:

Also the new front brakes will be disappearing in favour of something more manly, cant wait!

Cheers! Shame the turbo isn't going ahead but the house I have seen is worth not getting it done haha

I like the idea haha - yeah seem to have a chance on a cracking house if I can get the money together quick enough. Can always get another kit but its a shame as spent a good while parts sourcing.

Wow, that turbo looks old i have a gt28rs in good used condition if you like?

good to see the parts coming together btw!

 

[robbie1988]

No matey - as said above the turbo kit is for sale and this time tomorrow should be with a new owner all being well.

Car is staying as a nippy fast road/everyday car for now until I have bought a house

 

[Tutuur]

Sounds sinsible mate! I'm saving for a house myself too

 

[Rubicon_]

Are you selling the mounts mate?

 

[robbie1988]

Mounts, Turini's & turbo kit have all now sold, still getting the 2108's refurbed and put on so can keep the Williams wheels for winter with my snow tyres on
