WRX/Porsche Karmann cabrio 1303

[ricola]

Time for an update! There's been a lot done and most is in the details now it's coming together. We are due to move mid January so I'll finally have a double garage so I want to assemble as much to the car as possible to make it easier to move...

A hell of a lot of pipework has been completed and the chargecooler repainted and fitted.


Radiators in and piped up, you can just about make out a steel pipe I made which incorporates a bleed point at the top which connects to the header tank at the back via the original fuel line.


I welded on a heater return pipe and also connected up the fuel lines


Brake reservoir (911) fitted under bonnet and supply lines pipes down to the master cylinders. The system is now all bled and seems to work OK with no leaks...


New false floor...


I modified one of the front bumper brackets to take a removable towing eye.


All body trim now fitted, you can just about make out mesh in the radiator opening, I'll sort out the airdam later..


Just to give an idea of how the intake looks.


I painted the rear light housings satin black which I think gives the lights a slightly darker look without looking aftermarket..
