Man that is looking fantastic at the moment, the starter buttons are a nice touch, one for each engine it should be for though ;) :lol:

keep up the good work, its a shame that not many of us will see it in the flesh, although if I ever go to New Zealand I will be making sure I look you up :D

Well in that case I need to add another button then eh, cos don't honda call VTEC 3 engines in one ?? :D

Cheers for the comments.............. it is one of those things that pictures just don't do the car justice, but I'll try to get some really good shots of it for you guys, but as I say even people who have seen pics and then see it for real say wow it looks soooo much better in the flesh.

Still there is a chance I might be working in the UK and some time and so I'd ship it out there, so you never know........

Excellent project, some people are really willing to push tuning and modifying boundaries no matter what the cost.

Well this thread must be nearly over after sooooo many posts........

The cars completed pretty much, lots of little finishing touches to get right, but the new engine, gearbox, headers etc etc are all in and running lovely thanks to some awesome late night efforts from Mark at Speedtech putting it all back together..........

Finally got chance to drive it again and it's such a buzz.....even if I can only do 4500rpm......... No VTAK for me yet ........ :(

Well here's some pics as promised taken with a proper digital camera, although it's either shite or I'm shite at working it cos they all seem to look different !
