v6 6speed

[astramad]

hi lads just worked out how to use my pc so here are some pics of my pride and joy
the bodywork is going to be done in the new year
i fitted the engine about 3 weeks ago with the f28 box it sounds spot on wot do you all think?
it has calibra turbo wheels and brakes, eletric sunroof, leather interior, roof tip spoiler, koni top adj all round and droped 30mm not bad as ive only had the car 6 months i moved house and got married in the same 6 months so ive been abit limited to my mods so lads tell me wot you all think?

today got bored at work so i tried out MARK T advice bout my speedo after changing the outer cv joints and rewiring my blue/red speedo wire to the abs ecu hey presto it works perfect no abs light on speedo is spot on the money ish im over the moon big THANK YOU TO MARK T

more pics to come over the next week or so

Edited:

Meant to ask, Assuming (bad i know) you had a valver in her....
Compared to a stock valver how does the new lump compare
EG: As Responsive/Smoother power/Sluggish/Nippier/Generally better etc etc

Trying to get a feel so to speak of what to expect when mines in ya see (so close but yet so far, well it seems)

I know it's a grey area comparing like for like but you don't get if you don't ask lol

The black Cover has an Immobiliser in the ECU, that's the only difference.

Hiya's,
After your pm's astramad and just wading in rain to check underneath/sills/arches etc etc

Me n Missus well me really have decided the V6 is going in the cab :)

Sills/Arches/rough areas will be done and that link i sent for hood is where we're gonna get ours from, Thinking about the luxury type material in cream colour

Ohh missus wants your colour on her i mean my cabby

thanks mate im glad you like my car
i havent told you bout my mate in plymouth well he got me wifes old soft top he was going to put his valver on carbs and nos in it but after driving mine he got a cally v6 well im down there this weekend fittin that he also has a carbon bonnet (yes the real thing) and the rare wide arch irmisher kit so at the shows we will have to put all 3 soft tops togather

[Defiance]

Dang you get to see all the best cars lol

Yeah mine will be a lon term project for sure, Money being tight for us now :(

But i have time and can now lift averagely heavy things (bit poorly in a certain area lol)

I was shocked at condition underneath in a good way though

Once valvers motted friday (bessy best not fail again after money i've had to dump into her last 2 weeks lol) i will be more mobile and eager to swap cabby into where valver was stored (bit more space) and i will get 8v out n sell it or give it away i know nowt about 8v engines lol

Be great to meet up with V6's and go from south to north and west to east

Could call it the "Cabby Ball Run" lmao

Ohh roll on mot so i can start on cab he he

Well Take Care m8

Have Fun
