Yes mate that is totally true. No point doing half a job might aswell do it right 1st time.
At the end of the day the money for a fully built box will be Worth it all day long when youve got a super car power car for sub 20k and the fun that car will bring you will be endless fun specially when you’ve got the hpa controller

That looks epic mate. Ha I bet ur really wanting ur car back now. How much power do you think or does Martin say the box could cope with?
They've come up really nicely, particularly given the state they were in before. Good stuff!
Wow, you really did a nice job with those calipers!!
Gearbox and brakes look really good. Not sure I would like to put 800Lb/ft through it, still has stock first and second gears but I am sure it will stand up to pretty much anything you are likely to throw at it. DS2500 pads are not the best on track as I am sure you are aware, See how they go on the road and maybe try something better for the track.
RS29 is on a different level to DS2500. That is what I was running in mt RS3 4 pot calipers with the V6 334X32mm discs and they were very good. Pad life not quite as good but stopping power was excellent.
So there isn't a breather at all on that rocker cover. I would try and keep the breathers away from anywhere that oil could be splashing around. Above the intake cam plastic covers but not too close to the cam chain at the VVT end of the head.
Looks quality mate. What other mods are you planning
I like hearing other people's projects lol
Wowza you’re getting good at all this car stuff mate well done

I wouldn’t say that I’m learning mate but thank you. I really want to have a crack at MIG or TIG welding and get that sussed. Just like making and designing stuff, usually tinkering for hours in the garden and workshop. It’s what keeps me happy, although not the misses haha
