Well have a fully road legal car again! Car passed it's MOT Monday night! Didnt have any issues with the carbon boot floor!

Only advisory was on a slightly smokey turbo!

Having a ballache at the minute trying to get some wheel nuts no one sells them! Something I have only just found out :(

I'm wondering if any other nuts can be modified to fit?

Well there should be some wheel nuts in the post so I can finally get all the wheels on! All wheels are ready to go on with fresh A032R's. Hopefully have some pictures later in the week :)

I spent saturday afternoon fitting a fiat cinq radiator as the Metro radiator I had been using was getting the worse for wear! When i took it off it was partly blocked.



I cut out some more of the front end to get the radiator as far forward as possible as I hope to squeeze a small fan in to keep the car cooler and more usable for journeys etc.



I managed to curve the radiator so that it follows the front panel line.



Got it all fitted in and didnt have to modify the pipework. I painted the radiator black and it looks quite OE! I also have a new Metro header tank to fit so should freshen the engine bay quite nicely. The Rest of it needs a good clean!

I took the car out for a spirited drive to give it a test last night and couldnt get the temperature to raise over 50 degrees! It used to run at 70 degrees! I think i will have to fit a higher temperature thermostat.

Does anybody know of a good supplier of fans that are thin. The cheaper eight inch units all seem to be 70MM depth. I could ideally do with something thinner!

Cheers Ron

Robert I'm aiming to go faster than last year but not really done much work to the engine this time! Hopefully a better state of tune on the engine will help.

Wheels are 6 inch wife the same as my old star mags.

The ride height does seem to have dropped some more since the pictures were taken, it would be nice to have it lower but it's a trade off for all the various types of wheel size and tyres that I use.

Lol at the sidepipe! It does have a sidey on it from a R5 GTT but it has been modified to come out the centre of the car!

Cheers Matt I wasn't sure when the colour first came out of the gun but pretty happy with how they came out!
