How about painting the nuts green to match the car rather than black?
that would look badly badly gash
not sure painting is the way to go with wheelnuts tbh
Fair enough, only a suggestion, obviously the centre cap would have been colour coded too.
cant see it myself, anodised black will look sweet thou, never liked that blue, I couldnt bring myself to fit the brand new centres to my comps

Nope, humungous IC is not being used. Ive sent a design to AH Fabrications who built all of Adamhomo's stuff. Its a single pass using a 62mm core so is well up to the job but is a lot more compact than the hic.
Ive been busy again, making a real effort to get it done in time for FITP, the Bosch 044 fuel pump wiring is in along with switch on dash, had a whole lot more braided fuel pipe and an inline filter plus unions turn up. Wiring & relay for the lift pump is in handhand. Once thats all sorted I can concentrate on plumbing up the new intercooler when it comes.

Re: H702 DEG The work continues!
Its all gone very well this weekend, finally got the fuel system full plumbed in. Wiring for High-pressure and the lift pump is done along with the switches. Swapped the washer bottle for one that fits better and and gave the whole car a bit of a tidy up!
