    Update for the last part of the build (well I think so anyway LOL).

    The front drive snout and 10pk/gilmer belt setup is pretty much complete and installed. No more belt snapping or tearing. The belt guard has also been completed and it looks insane. George at HP/F has done an amzaing job and I can't wait to show you all. Additional pulley to run directly off the ATI unit is being done by Yella Terra and I believe it will be back and fitted early next week.

    The blower system now runs independant of the OEM system which also has many benefits. The best being if a blower belt does go I can still drive the car.

    Audio/visual has also been purchased and will be install over the coming weeks. Have gone with the new Alpine 502 head unit which will power everything and also includes GPS. This will be mated up to the Alpine headrest monitors already installed.

    Gauge POD on the A pillar is being made as a one piece plastic unit which current cannot be purchased for RHD vehicles at present so if you are after one, let me know. This will be made out of high strength plastic to existing OEM standards.

    Interior is also being retrimmed with A/B/C pillar and roof lining.

    There is also a lot of show piece items/fabrication being done which will be done within the coming weeks as well.

    That's about all for now, and I promise to have pics, videos (driving/dyno and sheet) then track upon completion of this project that is targetted to be done and dusted within 3-4 weeks.

    Daniel, did you guys pull the cam out? It sounded very quiet and smooth compared to before.

    HELL NO! Still in there (hey mate hows things). The PPP special :) is going no where.

    All came down to tuning. Still only a very quick and rough tune but the surging became worse when the blower was fitted so they needed to rectify it before heading up to Canberra. Did a nice job huh:grin:

    Cars in bits again, part sent off to powder coaters, new pulley setup etc. Tuning starts again next week or the week after......

    We've been waiting along time for this one Daniel. Really excited for you getting close to being done.
    I had the same issue. I have a very large blower cam also. Surging was terrible at 1st. Took quite a bit of tuning to get to sort of idle. LOL

    It's Fired Up, It's Idling......

    IT'S ALIVE AGAIN

    and being put on the dyno and tuned very shortly.

    WOO HOO!

    I have one more thing that I am dying to tell everyone that is being used on this car and is them main reason for the delay in getting it fired up again. I have been asked to keep it under my hat just until after the car is tuned just so that they can ensure no other issues arise. I will say though that this breakthrough is an option that I know many will be extremely interested in and I cannot wait to share with you all. This is an option that has not been available till now, many have tried and given up and was also deemed impossible. The talented guys at HP/F got it done though got over the final hurdle and the car is almost ready to go.

    WOO HOO all excited now that's for damn sure.

    Stay tuned.
