Yeah, glad they took care of you (or at least I hoped they hooked you up with the missing parts). Progress is looking real nice.

Not a big update but today we're able to finish the tubs and seam welding of the engine bay. Next time we'll bog the welds to make them look nicer plus degrease and prep the engine bay for painting.









And here some more parts that we collected.

Relocation blocks

Adapter plate for the intake plenum and throttle body, this also allow for the change in position of the throttle cable from the Mazworx original position.

Twin 044 fuel pumps


And currently waiting on these
Heat shielding

GT carbon mirror and carbon replacement plate


Origin front under canard, but I will mod it to complement the feed sidestep

So a few bit and pieces done since the last update.

Finished with the engine bay respray, look real nice for a backyard job lol.










Heat shield, wiper motor, clutch and brake back on...heat shielding is a bitch of a job, the material doesn't stretch at all. The trick to it if anyone else contemplating is to do it in smaller segments. Oh well as long as it do it job.










Clutch back on



Oil dipstick


Relocation block


Origin carbon canards



Gutted interior...there won't be much going back in. Originally just to remove the heater unit, but ended up removing most stuff just to get it out.



I rather like these thing...allen bolts a neat touch. We be replacing most of them with stainless items.

Thanks guys, it won't be long before the engine is in. But probably still a good few months before it's running again, at least we can see the light at the end of the tunnel.

With the current turbo? I would be happy with 500-550whp with a 5000rpm rev range.

If you're talking about the exhaust manifold then it's a 6boost T3 twinscroll.
