Got a Pulsar Posted May 18, 2013 Author Share Posted May 18, 2013 Looks Sweet Mik. How good is Perspex and a Heatgun??? I was amazed at how easy it bends... How thick is that? Mine in 6mm I think. Do you feel the need to shield the overflow bottle aswell? Mine is there also. Thought the heat might undo the benefits... Don't have any spare silver heat shield stuff I can pinch of you do you?

Thanks, mine is only about 3mm thick. Yes come over sometime and grab some, therse plenty left over. Got some tape youd like too, for applying it. Metal foil, fibre reinforced, handles fairly high temp and sticks real good. May have another 32 actuator, i dont know, but it looks the same. Edited May 18, 2013 by D.I.Y.

Scar Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Tidy work Mik! Thinking about doing similar to lower intake temps a bit.. would have better heat properties than alloy? Today I did a Trackschool day at Wakefield - unfortunately couldn't get an instructor before I had to go. Still happy though, the old bus ran a best of 1:14.3 - just need to do a brake bleed n will be all good.

Sinista32 Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Just my 2c - stay away from CF look FRP anything. It's tacky and turns to shite quickly!

Deziner Posted May 22, 2013 Share Posted May 22, 2013 Not sure its going to add any wasps but it will tidy things up a bit! LOL DIY...Cant be fooked. Yeah I was looking at CF, perspex and metal. decided to go black perspex as I have some polished parts and think it will set them off nicely. Also going to do the rocker covers and cam cover in the red from the R34 GTR'S.
