You thought the peer pressure for de-badging was bad, wait until you see the BRT tattoo Neil is working on. Keep the 17th Feb free in the afternoon...
Golly Chap,
I had considered coffee mugs, but tattoo's?
Gregory.
When you turn your car on, does it return the favour?

Re: Sailor's NC LE
Getting there!

Much fiddlier than I expected...maybe I'm fussy.
Spent a lot of time trial fitting to ensure there was plenty of clearance for the mass of coolant lines involved with the oil cooler install
and the ones that Mazda have installed.
Anyway, the blower is in, fuel rail is done now just need to install the wiring and intercooler plumbing which might be a challenge as the kit is designed for LHD.
I'll be attemping to get everything switched over the RHD which will keep the intercooler coolant reservoir away from the exhaust side.
Hoping for startup tomorrow or wednesday morning at the latest
