Nice, that's a rare item so you must be well happy Edd, will it handle the turbo conversion though?
I expect it will handle the turbo power, I only want about 140bhp out of it
The main problem at the moment is actually getting ANY time to work on the car, doing my head in tbh
A lot going on in life ATM
Got a few weeks off soon so hopefully do something with it soon
Rather have it sat in the garage doing nowt than sell up tho lol
Never sell it.
Never never never EVER lol
Never say never lol
Never
Still collecting parts......... lol
Nearly finished building the new garage so hopefully start on it again in few months
It'll be yellow inside now from all the tabs you smoke in there lol
^^^^lol
Finally got my hands on a irmscher rear bumper I've been after for ages

Great find! did you buy that in Germany? saw it a few times on ebay ;)
Now you just need the matching front valance and side skirts :d
Yay. Please bring it to the shows. I wanna see it.
Gotta finish the house extension before I do anything on the Sport
No idea when that will be tho
Ah yes. Hoping it's soon...
:p :p :p
I've actually started working on the car again
Saab B204 T25 turbocharger modified to fit Courtenay Turbo smallblock manifold
Lots more coming soon

Found a place locally that does Vapour Blasting
Got my spare manifold cleaned
I'm rebuilding the whole inlet system to eliminate the running issues the cars always had since I built it

Nice manifold.
I didn't know I needed things vapor blasting till now, looks brand new!
Cant wait to see how you get on with the engine and how it performs
Any updates on this Edd?
There will be on pay day end of the month
Update due
Well after over 2 years of not touching it and one winter of it being outside over winter whilst I did the house renovations I have finally got it ready for MOT
Quite a few changes along the way, but loads of mechanical work was needed due to it being sat
Exterior changes are 3 piece Irmscher rear spoiler and bronze tint rear screen with no heating element
Interior wise, dry cell battery fitted, Safety Devices cage modified, front cage powder coated matt black
Engine bay, vapour cleaned inlet, new ICV, TPS, AFM, CTS, DIZZY, ECU FPR
Gearbox casing vapour cleaned
Oil catch tank fitted
Oil filter relocation kit fitted
And for the first time ever it idles at 900rpm, something it's never done and the reason I've not used it
Nice mate how’s the turbo build?
Looks immaculate, good luck with the MOT
All the parts are readyQuote:
