Manifold rewelded? What's happened to it @Rich

Nothing has happened to it, but it's still got the 1320 whistle. I'm thinking I'll try to get new flex pipes welded in.

Also, I'm thinking oil cooler.

Short and simple list for me:

 - Get car back from bodyshop

 - Try really hard not to have an expensive off again!

Joking aside:

 - Fit TRD rear spoiler and debadge boot

 - Fit oil cooler and oil pressure sensor, add low oil pressure Racerom derate.

 - Change ride height and realign (its too low at the front and too high at the back currently)

 - Design and fit heat shield to stop P0351 fault code on track days

- Fix / replace wheel(s)

- Finish putting black badges on
- Maybe get exhaust tips aligned

  • New tyres (might try Michelin PS4's in 235/40, see what grip level is like)
  • Rear LCA's so I don't wear the inside edge of new tyres in a month
  • New rear spoiler (possibly TRD, possibly ABFlug, possibly Sard LSR)
  • Fit Intec 3rd brake light
  • KSport 356mm BBK

That's the obvious stuff that will get done as and when funds allow. Following that, some further saving required for:

  • New clutch OR Stage 2 turbo kit (when Mike finalises the kit) with included clutch
  • Decide on new colour for when the car gets wrapped (Satin green a la Mercedes AMG GTR currently tops the list)

I'd like to think the top list will all be done by start of Spring (or end of March at least), but a possible house purchase might slow that down. Whole list hopefully be completed by Summer.

  • Hopefully get my car repaired, need to start pushing for this to be done to be fair
  • While it's getting repaired, have my valenti lower rear light fitted
  • Swap wheels over
  • Get my front Tow-hook mounted

Other things that I might have done before then:

  • Potentially get a new exhaust system (will update what's happened so far but not happy with the sound anymore)
  • Probably million of other things I wanna get done but I've forgotten most of them but we'll see

Exhaust system fitted

Manifold fitted

Lowering Springs Fitted 

Geo Set Up

All above will be doing in 2 days.

Then save a bit of money to refurbish all alloys as the previous owner scratched them all!
