Incredible looking car, only those rear cluster I don't like, amazing amount of work you've put in...

Been toying with changing the engine cover, imagine this in very shiny carbon fibre:

I'm a detailer so I've done all the polishing myself www.detailingjem.co.uk

The Tuscan is in bits at the moment, has been for a year now, I've stripped it down to the chassis and rebuilding it to last from the ground up.

Re: My Rev3 total refresh project
Very awesome, I love the clean look of it man, how do you find it seeing through the rear shade though? does it obscure vision at all?

I've no idea, that's just a PhotoShop.
I don't think it would be a problem though.Re: My Rev3 total refresh project
PLEASE dont fit that engine cover. Your car is the perfect balance of OE & aftermarket, that thing will utterly ruin that balance. It would only suite a far more heavily modified look IMO.
As is, your car looks stunning, I love the effort you have gone to to make it shine like that. Very impressive. I wish I had the time and funds to make my car that perfect.

Re: My Rev3 total refresh project
Had these arrive today, they are from a Nissan Pulsar GTiR:
Had a play with fitting the Toyota throttle position sensor onto the GTiR ITB's, it almost fits straight on, just going to need to dremel out the mounting plate and it should fit straight on
I'm not sure they will bolt straight upto the head though, as I don't think the ports will line up. I could get round that with an alloy spacer plate around 15mm thick, but having them directly mounted to the head would have them pointing straight at the rear bulkhead and nowhere near enough room for bellmouths and filters. So I think I'll have to get a short manifold made up with a flange to bolt to the head, then intake runners to turn upwards 90° and a flange to bolt to the ITB's.
