A wee progress report on the white one (as you may know the Red one is being turned into a 968 engined homage to a CGT )


Well, before removing the engine from the white one, it was prepped and fired up.
apparently it has got good oil pressure and runs nice and smooth. so if anyone is in need of an S engine, This will be for sale.

So what has been done while she's been away ?

    The engine, bell housing , new clutch etc from my Red S (which also had replacement head 6 months ago, recon and chipped ecu ) is now in and running


    All calipers, hubs and shocks from red one transferred across

    All new brake lines, Discs Resurfaced and new pads

    All new fuel lines, flush old fuel from tank

    New handbrake mechanism and cables

    A full set of Good Year Winter tyres

    lots of bits n bobs

    and a brand new MOT :grin:
