Little update.
been busy cleaning and painting parts, has been hard painting with the bad weather we have had over the last week here in rotorua

made up the wastegate plum pipe today. nice and easy

slowly been ticking things off the list, wastegate done, o2 sensor port done, intercooler piping done, paint all front arms done, just need to find a set of injectors still unsure on what to run or to go top feed.
after months of looking i finally got my hands on the wiring harness for the starter and alternator ( also does oil pressure sensor)

first attempt at tig welding dont jude

Car is still here, still slowly ticking things off the list, fuel line is sorted for now, just going to run standard injectors and rail for the meanwhile , then either go for a top feed setup with 666cc injectors or cut the ends of the standard rail and weid an fitting on and put sti yellow injectors (really cheap here in nz and bolt and plug straight in as i've been told)

had another go at tig welding, welded the throttle cable bracket together, my tig welding is slowly getting there, love it so much more than the mig. still need to make up a proper bracket due to i just welded the old shitty one the old owner must of made up to a 4mm thick plate with a few holes in it

Got around to heat wrapping the downpipe and wastegate pipe, just makes everything look so much cleaner

Air temp sensor fitting and bov adapter welded on to the intercooler pipe by a friend now the piping is all done. heater lines are all hooked up and ready to go.

alternator is all mounted, for some reason i've misplaced a box of parts it seems like it, can't find the radiator lower mounting bushes, alt adjuster bolt, shit loads of nuts and bolt, so had to go buy new parts or make stuff up knowing my luck ill finish the car and find all of them in the most stupidest spot.

im at the stage of sending the car away to wiring but cant at the moment because the wife need a new car, so once that over it can be sent off but while i wait i've just been touching up the small things eg wipers, painting parts/wheels, mounting overflow bottle etc...
