Nice one Adam... Taking it to the next level.

How you going to do the transmission?

My housemate is currently at home in Norway so he will hopefully be bringing me an adapter plate and a cage back from one of his local shops.
I'm going to run the 360 running gear until it breaks!!
Adam

I hate you.... unless they fancy bringing another cage back too... as I'm trying to sort getting a cage from norway at the moment. lol

I voted for the fantastic looking dark blue (looks a bit like MG Trophy blue), sounds like a very interesting project- good luck

You need a plan B - way you drive that wont be too long.

Once you have the adaptor plate, Is it going to fit in there without major surgery?

The only major issues i see are the sump. I can switch manifolds from a diff 5 pot to re route the throttle body, and i can flip the turbo the other way up to sort that out.
So yeh sump is the only ball ache i can see at the mo.

Oh and dont worry i do have a plan B!!! haha

Adam

Cast a custom one - that uni machine shop has to be good for something!

Cast dont you mean mahine from billet? haha lol
No i will probably make my own sump depends how much needs modding.
Adam

Ok i now have wheels, although adapters are required to fit them as they are 114.3 but i was going to increase th track of the car anyway. 7 x 16" nice dish, unknown brand though, although think could be mille miglias. Stamped made in England and 100+

Those wheels will look awesome once there fitted, what kind of paint scheme you gonna go with for them?

That white in photoshopped photos did look really good

yea although lately i have had a thing for deep dish wheels where the dish is silver and then the inner part is a different color to put emphasis on the dishyness lol, maybe a silver dish and the the main center of the wheels the same color as the body of the car.

Dan

Spokes are going white and to start with i will paint the entire wheel white, then if i think it needs it i will pop them on the lathe and diamond cut the lip. We will see.
Adam

Ad, "100+" is a brand of wheels. halfords special from memory

The brand 100+ is part of Team Dynamics but i dont think these are that brand. Once stripped down the outer lip from edge of spokes is diamond cut so.....
