The Racetractor. The End.

Good to see an update on this.

Bit of a mission to reach that Heat exchanger.

Nice to see its been playing ball after the hard work.

Any more plans? Did you sort your audio issue?

[Piggy]

Yeah sorted the audio buzz.

Need to buy some nicer cables for finishing the audio and install my other amp for front speakers.
New alloys to come.
Bodywork tidying.
Flocking to finish.

Then for power, custom manifolds and a GTB :-)

updated my key...now need to find a way to fit the guts of the r/c/l bit

also finished my spoiler and fitted it. picture shows it a bit nicer than it is to be honest, but it was only rattle cans and a morron using them, so Im pretty pleased.

Spoiler looks good apart from being the wrong colour lol.

[kentiiboii]

What key is that? Any more pictures of it? Also nice choice in colour for spoiler mine is also grey :-)

[Piggy]

Hows the 2.2 going :-P

It will fit in better with summer alloys

Just an ebay special...but I like it...tricky bit now is getting the 306 oem guts to fit and work in it

[RetroPug]

Looked a nice car when I saw this the other week, actually like the wheels as well!

[Piggy]

not sure on the visors, done them for Niall, but not happy about the finish, its a weird material to flock to.

loving me other bits though...

more soon to come

[Chris_90]

When you gonna sell this to me? looking good anyway be nice to see what you think if the difference in Fuel pipe size.

[Uberderv]

I like the flocking (and other gubbins) Have you made the flocking machine yourself?

Straw, snort, sneeze. Repeat.

[Dum-Dum]

flocking hell, you've been a busy boy lol

[Piggy]

flocking hell, you've been a busy boy lol

Doing all the lower console, centre console but taking time to do spot on

[Piggy]

Gave the old gal a wash...first one in 3months...
Lanes round here are like rally stages

looking good there dude did you do the flocking yourself? think some nimrods would look smart in silver on yours

[Piggy]

Yup.see my flocking thread

Already got alloys for it...in process of refurb

[7057sam]

Awesome car have there piggy

Got to love flocked bits aswell

[Poodle]

I've got to say i think the current alloys make the look fit the description, if you know what i mean. What have you got lined up to go on?

[Grant]

Looks really smart dude!

The flocking inside sets it off subtly, but nicely.

[Carlos182]

Actually quite like those alloys...!

[Piggy]

Thanka guys....yeah I may not end up flocking the whole dash yet...just little bits.

Alloys wise, I do think they suit it, but they are just winter wheels/tyres...
Pics of new wheels soon

[devils_fuel]

Those wheels do look cool

All the hassle was worth it

[Piggy]

Suspension upgrades now in pipeline...

No spare time though so still driving with no centre console or gauges!

Last little bits ordered to do the 10mm fuel line and breather setup...busy weekend ahead

[7057sam]

New wheels??

[Piggy]

New wheels??

Not even prepped, let alone painted.

Need to finish flocking.
Then 10mm fuel lines.
Then beginning of april big freshen up with new suspension and alloys, wing and other touch ups ready for first show at combe at end of April

[Piggy]

got me auto dim mirror wired up...



got a little plug in case of need to remove in future...summer probably as I want a new windscreen.

and fitted.

[attachment=14162]
[attachment=14163]

Not best finish, most of these are test bits and I may do new bits again later in time.

Out of wonder, I assume when green LED shows, that means "ON"..then when you push the button and it goes off, then its "OFF"!?

need to do the interior light surround and visor feet and grab handles all to match now.

getting some suspension shineys tomorrow....very excited

hope to do the 10mm fuel line tomorrow...not sure if to wait till last bit of puzzle arrives though

[Toms306]

Out of wonder, I assume when green LED shows, that means "ON"..then when you push the button and it goes off, then its "OFF"!?

Yup that's right. Assuming you didn't wire in the reverse wire, the 'off' could be handy now and then. Though I can't really see why it's needed in its OEM setup tbh lol.


The flocked stuff looks cool tbh!

[Dum-Dum]

Looking good dude.

[Piggy]

so still feeling rather rough...but got meself out early to meet with Chris to get some cool bits...more on that later...

got home. slept. slept some more. woke up feeling mega groggy, but seeing that it was sunny and others on here are busy on cars, got out...only a little job, but man, i need some storage, so...

[attachment=14185]

not all that great, but that top box was a tester, guna see if I like it...if not, put normal one in, if I do, i will do one with a better finish

and among some of the bits I got this morning at junc 9 of the M5....

[attachment=14188]

was under the impression the rear dampers were b6s....but they aint...so I have a pair of b4 rear shocks for sale!!!

[Grant]

How resilient is the flocking? I.e. would seat buckles last well?


Car looks spot on though dude, flocked interior mirror looks good
