Good thing having the Stack Fuel pressure Option, it may be the picture but the sender looks realy close to the blower belt, how far away is it?

It's the picture, it's miles away from it.

Well, about 100mm anyway.

Oh yes and don't forget to put the Ally shields behind the rear number plate lights, I didn't know they existed before it went for the free factory checks.
Nealy there mate, better start to think about booking the SVA, the waiting list is somtimes upto 4 Weeks.

Its a shame you can't have the fuel pressure as well as the air temp on the STACK system.

SVA was booked a couple of weeks ago. Factory are collecting on the 6ht March, SVA is on the 18th.

How did you go about fixing the ally boxes on the number plate lights? They look bonded on in the CD phots?

Bonded them on with fibreglass, the factory can provide the alloy brackets.

Don't forgett the edging on the wing mirror glass and that none of the braided hoses should be touching any wiring anywere. I used spiral wrap on the braided hoses at any point where they were in close proximity.

Good luck.

Already got the ally boxes.

Wing mirror edging? Wassat then?

Braided hoses all fine as all my wiring runs through convoluted tubing.

Covulated Tubing eh... I must say that I wrapped all the wiring on the car in spiralwrap to give it that added protection.
I'm glad I'm not the only compulsive builder!

The glass in the mirror will fail as its to sharp, it's edges will need covering for SVA.

I used some rubberised edging and glued it to the mirror at the back and cut it down on the front to a about 5mm.

Actually Stig, you're right. Yellow is so last year, that I decided to sell mine

It's going to get a new livery when it goes to Sweden, but it might make the odd guest appearance over here from time to time.

In my opinion..the Ultima looks best in metallic blue, with red as the close second.

Here's my opinion in what the Ultima looks best in

1. Blue
2. Red
3. Silver
4. Black
5. Yellow
6. Orange
7. White

No sorry if you going to stand out from the Crowd, (i.e. buy an Ultima ) then it's got to be yellow, everything else just looks.... well dull. Sorry..

I wanted red but wanted to blend in as much as possible. I've got black car, tanks, wheels, grills and wing supports. The motor and tansaxle are silver!

This may sound kind of odd, but even though I am getting an Ultima, I am a somewhat subtle character. I like to try to blend in a little. While all the colors look good on an Ultima and will get attention no matter what, yellow will punch onlookers in the face in an attempt to say, "LOOK AT ME D***IT!!"

Some crave attention (perhaps they're lacking in other areas? ) and some don't.

The defence rests
