So 2015 was largely a write off. Started a new job where they work you like a $2 pole dancer and combined with putting myself on a tight budget of $500 a month means things move very slowly But, finally got to a point where the new rear end has been fully refurbished, new shocks rebuilt by Racepace and now just need new springs. Custom tops that will heopfully be mega quiet for a loooong time. Got the new diff, suspension arms, fuel system etc all sorted now. Problem is I lost a lot of motivation last year when I sold my T67 setup so have now got my new twins and close to getting all the bits I need to get it all bolted up to Kinda surprise. Here are some pics of the retarded amount of hours I have spent welding, painting, pressuing bushes and bearings in the hope that the car will drive like new when it finally gets back on the road. So the reason why I binned the old R32 cradle. After years of flogging around tracks it gave up the ghost So when sorting the BCNR33 GTR rear end I decided to gusset it all up So after welding it up I paint stripped the whole cradle, wire brushed it and went a little bling with the silver

Enjoy ppl...stay safe. Sad there is no RB20 to cheer for

Damn you English! All those awesome tracks on your doorstep and now you have a hell cool and neat car!

I like the ability to procure components of other teams. Perhaps they lost needs to be pulled back a bit but the approach is right. Maybe its a for the first 3 three years of a new team thing....thrn revert to a shorter list. Shame tonsee Sauber struggling at the moment with finances. I will be gutted if they go the way of Tyrrell and Lotus as they have done a solid job since moving into F1

Hey, i like Rosberg...but he has yet to put Lewis to the sword and Lewis has always got on his streaks which Rosberg has looked powerless to stop. If Lewis can keep his intensity up it will be a great contest as Rosberg still looks hungry. I hope /lewis faulters and we see him on a few races throw his toys from the pram as tradiotionally he goes walkabout

WTF... i am even starting to think its an ok looking car

Hamilton will go and win 6 straight mid season...he has been menaced 2 GPs in a row and still racked up points. Rosberg has done what he needed to but i need to see him beat Lewis in wheel to wheel combat to prove to me he has the headspace to win the WDC this year

Another cracking result for my boy Romain. 5th!

So...this isnt an exhaustive list, but more the stuff ppl never consider that having done it enough myself may give you more to consider - remove std manifold that often means snapped studs....equals time to remove and replace, - new exhaust manifold gaskets and turbo dump gaskets - aftermarket low mount manifold/turbo means new coolant and oil lines (plus move std wiring etc that is too close to the manifold/dump) - removing turbo means dumping coolant so may as well do oil and filter all at the same time. - changing injectors so may as well slip a new fuel filter in there. How old is the current one? - custom dump easily 250-350 including flanges, gaskets, welding & material I would say the price is very reasonable.

Bumpage.
