    Adjusting the suspension without the plastic Koni suspension adapter

    These aluminium caps with an O ring to hold them safely in place replaced the plastic caps and with a simple twist adjust the Koni suspension.

    I was going over the engine today just checking one or two things and decided there was too much blue silicon pipe on the induction kit.
    3 hours later the induction kit had been modified with the airflow meter discreetly housed underneath in the stainless steel pipe.

    Small modification on the windscreen wiper motor (I have only got one)
    Made from solid block of aluminium with no joins, it hardly ways anything.

    Much cooler than the original one painted in blue.

    Good call. I had that ASH stuff on the roadster with a 45* bend on it. Under acceleration it was collapsing and strangling the engine. Replaced with a hard alloy elbow and it improved it no end.

    OlberJ, that's really interesting. I have got a upgraded Supra twin Turbo induction kit so there is very little resistance.

    PaulM thank you it has come a long way and got a long way to go.


    Fitted, and before anyone mentions the wiper motor bracket I am working on a replacement one now.:icon_biggrin::icon_biggrin:

    Automatic dimming mirror fitted, with a little “V6” touch to it.:icon_biggrin:

    There is quite a lot of work in making the bracket to hold the mirror; unless you do a lot of night driving it is not one of those “must have modifications”.

    This is just one astonishing build, the machined parts are just incredible.
