Re: seank90, Whats this? a parcel? for me? The front bumper is much modified. The cooling ducts for the brakes are enlarged, the front lower grill was taken out and the supports cut out for the FMIC, sadly the grill was chopped up for a smaller fMIC. So the look will be different to others, great place to put oil coolers behind mesh though. No idea re the airbag system lol,
Re: seank90, Whats this? a parcel? for me? Thought the holes looked bigger Wolf - I can only see the vertical bumper slats, it should look like this: 7 vertical slats All I see is: 4? Do the UK slats cover the light holes? Are they blanked out?
Re: seank90, Whats this? a parcel? for me? Ya , there have been some rough times alright, not going to lie, but it all will come good in the end. Headgaskets are not too bad now becasue ive got ARP studs so theres no more issue there! It looks like wolfs because its exactly the same as his but in red! :thumbsup: ill get you some pics of the two plastics later on! :thumbsup: i might use the cooling ducts for a ram air system like no other :cop ill defo be placing the oil cooler to the front to cool oil some more and hopefully increase pressure.
Re: seank90, Whats this? a parcel? for me? @Stig, mine is exactly the same, except I have no foglights on it yet, so there is a cover up grille on it. When the car is back home I'll make you a detailed picture of it.

Re: seank90, Whats this? a parcel? for me? If you find them...I'll go crazy !! Been after them for so many years allready
Well, today i decided that i was going to do a bit with the car, after seeing the new site i got a bit more motivation! so i went out and i just put up the front bumper from trinity for a look, and wow! i really cant wait until i have the front finished so i can put it all back together! its going to look great! So after i toke the bumper back off again and i then removed the chassis bar that goes across the front of the car, no broken bolts so i was delighted! i will have to do something about the rad thou! half of it is covered in sludge so it cant work properly, so i will need to sort that out, i toke off the wheel first and the mud guard and i only found a bit of rust on the wing and i just thought to myself, SH*T is this the side thats going to be rusted apart... but i soldiered on and i continued removing the wing and the inner splash guard in the wheel arch... i managed to take the whole wing off without sheering one bolt!! SUCCESS! i just used daves method of lots of WD-40 and move it half way out and then a little again and wait, so while i was waiting i would be removing other bolts!and what do you know, everybolt came off. so when i toke off the wing i was expecting to be sweeping up most of the rust but this is what i got. would i be fair enough to say... RESULT?! couldnt be happier with it, no rust what so ever. so i opened the water hatch for the windscreen run off and i thought crap! quiet litrally, CRAP! and loads of it, but no rust! so now i can do some cleaning up in the wheel arch and a bit of waxol and it should be good for another 20 years! but i want to get gas for my mis and stich weld the front, just to sharpen it up.
Not too much rust at all, those water channels are notorious for blocking and that's a nice shot of the engine air intake
Nice progress. It's always good to see if someone is going under the panels and everywhere to eliminate rusty parts.
im going to mod it a little for a ram air intake. the camera seems to show up more rust than there actually is... but all the rust ive come across so far just needs to be wirebrushed for a few seconds and its gone!
Good progress Sean look's great just like you said only surface rust use wire brush but then don't forget to spray rust proof again and like spiderman said like the intake picture now I can also see the space we really have for a new intake pipe all the way down into front bumper happy for that.
Why bother, IMO it's an unnecessary mod......... IMO the OEM air intake is more than satisfactory and doesn't suck any engine heat............... after the wire brush I would brush some old engine oil on it :thumbsup: @ Fernando......... I personally wouldn't mod my intake tube........ I can't help thinking that Yota ended the intake tube behind the headlight because it's less likely to 'ingest' water/moisture etc....... :cheers
