Is it possible to swap the coolbox for a regular glovebox easily? I have a coolbox but all it does it make the glovebox smaller and make pens get wedged in the hinge.

Fitted my dashcam today but no fuses I tested were ignition only, anyone know where I should power it from?

Started putting together a couple of things. Got a vent pod on eBay. A guy in Spain makes them. Just have to install it in he car. Mounted my AFR gauge in it.

Also installed a rocker switch to wire up a kill switch to my fuel pump. Feeling a little paranoid lately and I want some added security. Just have to put it all back in the car this weekend.

Nice, how long did it take you? And presume you had to bolt the extra mount on. I had a look at trying to separate the diffuser from the bumper on mine to paint it but lost enthusiasm when I didn’t come off easily! Bodywork on cars isn’t my bag ha!

yes ive seen these, but if you read the listing it says that bulbs are not included, and they take d1s bulbs.

Thanks i didnt change the exhaust myself jamie and his mate did it less than a hour. After watching them do it i would say hour half on own and yea the holes are there so just a hanger bolts straight on. The diffuser is trickie as in you have to really go for it only 2 screw/bolts cant remember but just pull real hard start at one side and work your way across it wont break.

I'd be interested to see how the plastidip holds up over time. Has it peeled under the heat of the exhaust or anything?

Looks wicked Martin! Nice job.

I fitted the worlds biggest filter today. Only just fits in the gap. Was originally going to build a custom carbon fibre air box but as it won’t fit I’ll build a carbon heat shield now but to be honest after monitoring the air intake temps it hasnt really changed from the original sealed air box.

K&N drycell so no oil to mess up the MAF. Sounds nice with the chopped exhaust.

good size that, I would have like that size but i'm at capacity now and it wouldn't have fitted , I opted to use a K&N drycharger cover and its amazing how much debris it stops .

Yeah sounds good! I recon it’s around 90mm. Filter neck is 102 and I used some rubber strip to make a washed. Can get it off and measure it if you need to know for definite?

I've got a spare cone filter, would be handy to know. Cheers

Fitted a BSR cone filter and 034 TIP. Not expecting any gains from this. I just like the sound. The filter will be getting swapped out for a bigger one when I finally get around to fitting my performance parts. Its quite small and I think it will be a restriction. The manufacturer says it's good for 300 bhp, can't see it myself.

Induction

Got an 034 catch can to go on next. Was hoping to do it today but ran out of time.
