Not a great deal to report. Fuel system is being finished this week, and then it's away next week to have an exhaust and intercooler pipework fabricated. It'll be back to Peters after that for the last few odd jobs before turning the key.

Finally, it's in!


This was actually about 10 days ago, just never had a chance to update.

The car is a rolling shell again, but still have a few things to get done.

Thanks for the replies fellas. Engine still isn't in yet so I've still got plenty time before I do the first 50 miles... Still to go over this with Peter. But I think I'll take the mixed (road and dyno) approach - if Peter agrees. It'll be EvoTune (Durham) or Wallace Performance (Aberdeen) for dyno ...

Nur Spec was quite loud. You'll hear it on the video below.
Not the best quality but hopefully give you an idea.

Thanks mate

Nice update. Noticed you have a different exhaust manifold, sure it was a full race before, looks like a TTE version? Got any close ups of the porting for the waste gate? Interested to see if it's done the same way as mine. Thanks mate. Good to see someone still interested in this build :lol: I did...

Happy with the work that's been done by Peter, but still have this horrible gut feeling something's not going to play ball when it comes to turning the key / mapping... I think because this has been off the road so long and I've had so many ups and downs with it, it almost feels wrong to think posit...

More progress :mrgreen: http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y89/Jayzer05/IMG_7550_zpswgbpkbkw.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y89/Jayzer05/IMG_7581_zpsb7emr6ss.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y89/Jayzer05/IMG_7584_zps9mvym72x.jpg http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y89/Jayzer05/IMG_7669_zpsoetvg...

Tell me about it!

Today:

Right, finally! An interesting update with pictures on what is hopefully nearing an end after a long and frustrating 3.5 years!!! :lol: Summary: 2013 - Blew a piston on my stock Rev3 engine in the September. 2014 - Got married so had no money, or motivation to be honest, to work on the car. 2015 - S...

Absolutely incredible work, commitment and thought!
You've done yourself proud IMO.

Speak to Peter Gidden. He got me a higher rate fuel pump from USA. I'm sure he used them on Simon Hicks car as well

Interesting read.

Graeme / Greeny,

Do you still stand by your run in procedure?
I'll hopefully be running mines in next month so a few things to keep in mind!

Car goes well.

Do you have a build thread?

Block will be back from the machine shop next week

Well, just home after delivering the car to Peter. :mrgreen: A true monumental milestone in what has become an absolute love / hate / want to torch it, 3.5 year long carry on :lol: Engine still isn't built, however that'll be changing very soon :mrgreen: We've agreed a timescale for having it built,...

Good read mate. It has came a long way!

Any pics of the Nimbus effort? And of course the 180 bend?
