Looking at it now I wish I'd powder coated the gearbox casing but once fitted it will only get dirty anyway. So happy to see this coming together. My bank balance on the other is definitely not as happy  ________________________________________ Super high boost Completed, destroyer of gearboxes and 160mph club |

Looking great, if I had the money I'd have thrown as much at as you Ollie, but with the use of a second shell for the widetrack and wide arch didn't want to throw too much at the Rallye though hopefully this will stop much of the rust the rallyes seem to get.

Wouldn't have wanted anything for the blaster or grit bud, it's just sitting here doing nothing! Makes s**t loads of mess tho and takes ages to clean up Looking good bud, have you checked that the bumper fits with the coolers like that? I couldn't get mine to fit that way round with out destroying the bumper, then again it doesn't really matter with a standard bumper |

It fits perfect with standard bumper took us ages to get them to fit behind like they do, just got to get this finished ASAP need some boost back in my life. The coolers sit centrally behind the footlights. ________________________________________ Super high boost Completed, destroyer of gearboxes and 160mph club |

 If I was to have them the same as yours I would have had to remove a lot of the chassis leg front panel... Sod that lol Either that or had big square cut out in the bumper Tell me about it yours is putting mine behind lol |

That very strange because the coolers fit behind the wide arch bumper when I hold it up in place on mine.________________________________________ Super high boost Completed, destroyer of gearboxes and 160mph club |

Just a helpful hint: you might want to take a bit of material away from the upper engine mount support leg before you paint the bay as you cant remove the inboard pulley bolts to then gain access to the charger bolts.I can take a pic and some measurements if you like? I didn't realise you couldn't get the bolt out so now have to touch it back up with paint |

Sorry for s**te pics, my phone camera is playing up With a rule in line with the mount you want to take out from 35mm to 65mm and take out around 4-5 mm (it's only the head of the bolt that doesn't cleal, the shank is fine)   |

I see why yours fits, you dont have the slam panel on which comes down lower than the angled front plates.Again not a problem for you but I also didn't want to cut my slam.panel up Edit: forget the above as just looked at mine and it shouldn't be a problem, I just remember my engine one wouldn't fit but the charger one would and didn't want them to be different |
