engine pic

Barks and David at http://www.augmentautomotive.co.uk/augtronic
did my belts and hg, front engine seal complete serivce and fuild replacment in the summer, along with stage 2 set up and toms ecu.

While that was been done we had a little tart up. Camcover powered coated and manifold and ic pipes e.c.t

1st spec was graphite grey for all the polished parts however getting a colour in my mind wasn't working out so we went hod rod style.

David did some wielding to the rear sill sections as there was some paint blisters coming up, which turned out to be a pasted filler job. I had 2 oem sills to use but the area wasn't that far spread, however the inner rear section needed completely rebuilding a small hole turn out to be a complex repire. David did a very good job replacing it like it was from the factory.

Once I got the car back after the painters had finally finished they bit, 1 week job took 10 weeks to finished it was getting very wet and cold out. Car was spinning up the wheels in 1st 2nd and 3rd at times, in in the dry. I finally got round to fitting 18" JARA cup wheels which where black with polished lip. After I gave up refrubing by hand the lips. Due to slight water ingress under the lacquer. I got them power coated gloss black. Which look much better in person sort off lose the dish in pics. Fitted with rear 285, not complete stopped the wheel spin but fill the arches great.

Fitted my 968 Hacth which has been sitting about for a year, and the rear clear lenses

Lovely that is. Simply lovely :).

Where did you obtain your silicon boost hoses from? Do you own the Mini in the shot as well?

Looks very nice fella, you do realise though that you will be excommunicated for fitting 18" wheels on a 944 :lol: .

Looks great but you've now given me a dilemma!

My 88 Zermatt silver turbo was going to have a 968 hatch, black wheels, no door strips and clear rear indicator lenses. Now I've been beaten to it I'm going to have to do something different! lol

Were you expecting disrespectful comments Terry?? :?:

If so, change your coolant header tank, it's old, yellowed and smells of wee, not to mention offensive to Porsche owners everywhere :lol:
