No running lights on the cards.......as of yet

The NCL-ABZ journey was fun sitting at 62mph due to the 2500rpm run-in procedure.

More photos to follow once I get the car washed.

Roll on 3000 miles

Thanks, the colour does seem to take up a good shine.

The car is firstly snow-foamed using an HD-Lance. It is then washed with Meguiars Hyperwash using the 2-bucket method with a lambs wool mitt

Looks fantastic love the alloys, how does it compare to the old one?

[malman]

Excellent piece of kit in a lovely colour - any interior shots? Is it 4.0 or bigger? Was confused by the first pics saying you got it from Jason @Str8six and I'm looking and thinking I would swear that rear yard looks just like HHC

The alloys really do set the car off. As for comparison the car feels a lot tighter and it idles from cold very well. Its hard to tell during the running-in period how much quicker the car is. Will have to wait and see

Yes, we arranged to do the swap at HHC due to living in North East Scotland.

The engine is as follows but apart from that, the car is standard:

4.3Ltr Fully blueprinted engine with many upgrades inc:

EN40B steel crankshaft.
H section forged conrods.
Lightweight one piece flywheel.
Ceramic coated manifolds and motorsport cats.
Uprated airbox.
Bespoke engine MAP.

Some more snaps

You will probably find a few other refinements, as Jason cannot help himself with attention to detail

Yes, quite a few Varleyism's incorporated by Jason in this car not least the geo setup.

4mm shim in steering rack completely eliminates bump steer and makes car feel tighter on turn in. On saying that only experienced this 'flat out' at 60mph.

Was overtaken by a school minibus after following a camper van for 30miles. Kids found this most amusing.... :-(
