Cheers guys.

Looking forward to it.  :driver:

I was happy enough with the power but got a good deal on them, and since I had nearly everything else (Intercooler, Pump, Exhaust etc.), I said I'd go for it!!.  :jumpmove:

I'll try get some more pictures of the car up later, I realise that the thread is lacking in photo's.  :ashamed:

What power do you think you'll achieve with the GT28 and S3 injectors.?

This is class, I'd absolutely love to see/hear more about polished monzas, it's something I'm considering at the moment as opposed to replacing with something aftermarket.

Cheers Harry.

They were'nt in bad condition to start with.

Started off with 600 grit sandpaper, then 800, 1000, 1500, 2000.

Then finish with a metal polish.

HTH.

Not much has changed, just gathering and waiting on parts.

Also picked up a set of these stupidly cheap:

Kumho V700 Track tyres.



They're a fairly old track tyre but should give good grip and save my road tyres.

Thanks guys.

Pity I can't take a photo to save my life.  :fighting:
Looks better in person.

I'll make sure to get some videos when it's on.
