Picked up a set of turbo wheels today, ($200), they need a good tidy up but they are nice and straight, no gutter rash or anything. Will look sweet with the red crap gone and all nice and polished

Lol i cant stand polishing, i HATE it! I got the tyres stripped off them today, think im gonna ring around a few places and get a few quotes. It was also suggested to me to get them chrome dipped for ease of maintenance, but i dunno. Suggestions?

i have a bad feeling that stainless manifold is going to crack mate.. just out of interest whats the build quality like? would you be able to measure the pipe thickness with some verniers for people who are interested?

Re: Geoffs GE Sigma EFI Turbo Build

Posted: Mon Oct 18, 2010 5:20 pm

Will measure it when i get a chance, build quality looks decent, welds are very solid and neat, internally the edges have been die grinded down at the merge so its not a complete mess.

Finally got a bit of time this arvo to do a bit of work on the old girl. Progress has been almost stopped over the christmas period, but hoping to get back into it soon and get it on the road.
Cleaned up the rust around the rear window and converted and primed it, going to let it dry over night then sand it back and put a coat of paint on it. Wont be the best job in the world but will look a hell of a lot better than it did.

Also found these headlight stone guards in the shed, thought it might go with the old school look for the car, havnt put them on yet so i dont know if theyll look any good or not though, but ill decide then if im gonna use them or not.

so cheap -it cost me more to do it myself! lol -though the sedan headlining is almost half the size of wagon's. Looks great :thumpsup:

Yeah I know. A chick I know is an apprentice trimmer which works out good for me. Wagons may be bigger but damn they are so much easier to get in and out of. Sedan roof linings are a pain in the ass
