Very nice GT-fours!!
any interior shots Johny?
No mate - well not current ones anyway.
Car is away having engine built and the new bride seats are at my house.
Also the door cards and headlining / visors are going to be sent to the trimmers to be covered in alcantara.
Then its just a case of having every bit of interior plastic flocked to match the dash & console and its done

Cage and FG doors finally sold and gone so more room in my garage smile.gif
Majority of bits for car now with engine builder but they are just waiting on some custom pistons as they dont want to risk using the HKS 87mm ones.
All interior trim bits that are being retrimmed have been sent away so should have nice red alcantara roof lining and door cards soon.
Just waiting on my moroso sump to arrive from the US frown.gif

dude what did you do with the recaro seats that came in it¿? those are like super rare and worth a pretty penny

What I think when you think I care
Sold em as i already had my Brides and the Brides are sooooooo much better and supportive than the recaro's

Women are snakes with tits
but ur other gt4 didnt have the recaros and now u are bringin recaros for that 1?

What I think when you think I care
No not now - i was going to because i was offered a set for silly low money but decided not to.
Recaro seats are no way near as good as Brides and the wife is having my old set as i have red ones now

im having a rev 2 block mated to a rev 3 head so it will work smile.gif

Well my sump , samco rad hoses and ARP L19 head bolts finally arrived after 5 months of waiting.
Just need a set of subframes for my seats and a MSD ignition kit and ill have everything i need then.

Women are snakes with tits
Electronic controller unit for the water pump and fans arrived today so 1 less thing on my list biggrin.gif

Out of curiosity, why did you mate a rev 2 block to a gen 3 head? isnt that taking a step backwards? Also on another note, you wouldnt happen to be using an EWP electric water pump would you thumbsup.gif confused.gif

What a good looking build. I personally am looking for a new guage kit. I really don't like the stock version as it looks out-dated. Your guage dials are very nice. Did they come with the vehicle or were they purchased and installed as after market?
Im using a Rev 2 block as these have been found to be stronger than the Rev 3 blocks by very reputable UK tuners and thats what my engine builder recommends.
Yes im using a Davies craig EWP.

Ref the clock faces they are made by www.skewer.co.uk

Sequential shifter kit, that's a unique one. Best of luck with that progress, those parts are cherry.

Learned a lot in 10 years...I hardly log in anymore, last loginToday Sept 6 2019, and I was forced just to clarify a post. LOLIf you PM me and I dont respond, dont fret or cry. Im alive, better post your questions in the thread below, maybe I log back in2grfe Swapped...Why I chose the 2GR, before you ask read here...A great civilization is not conquered from without until it has destroyed itself from within.@llamaraxing in Instagram is the best way to find me. I hardly log here anymore.
As i have a lot of electrical items that are no longer in use ive decided to go for a custom loom.
This will be more efficient as will be brand new and also mean i can remove the fuses and relays from the egine bay and create a cleaner look under the bonnet.
Just need one of these

These are the bits ill be getting in next couple of months - as well as doing a important job they are all siny too

Twin fuel filter set up and mounting plate for Bosch 044 pumps - just means i need another pump



Nice 10 gallon fuel tank



1.5 litre water swirl pot



2 litre header tank



1.75 litre water injection tank - means it can be under the bonnet rather than in car as planned

Well i have done a deal on a nice set of new road wheels - Volk CE28's in 8.5x18 and bronze - and these are my all time favourite alloy wheels so chuffed to finally have some.
Also interior has been totally stripped out and ready for flocking - just waiting on my door cards to come back from retrimming so the untrimmed bits can be flocked and then my nice red alcantara headlining and visors can be fitted.

But a long way off being finished as still need to pay the company who is doing my car for all this work

Samco hoses


Didn't know Samco made rad hoses in this color for the Gt-Four, I went on their site and don't remember seeing any in purple. Good to now though, I was looking for some! How much did they cost you?
