cheers guys,

Yeh i did make a quick list when i posted the pics up on the sxoc, ill paste it in here too then if you want.

The engine is internaly standard for now, bar some cams and uprated valve springs. But its got a bigger turbo, injectors etc and its just made 360hp last week after mapping at APT. Which is not bad considering it was having problems holding the boost up to high revs.
Im going to give the car a good thorough shakedown next year, and get it set up right before i think about pushing for more power.

Welcome on board Richard. I have to admit that when I arrived at Gary's the other day to drop the BM off, the first thing I saw was Christians face, the second was Richard's simply stunning S14.5, minus the front splitter and bumper.

I instantly lost interest in my cars clutch being swapped and a few other jobs that needed doing and made a beeline for the nicest S bodied car I have ever seen. Richard, his father and his buddy were friendly and very modest about how much work had gone into the car (near three years IIRC) but the results were staggering.

The reference about its likeness to a JGTC car will oft be repeated I think.

Very well done on the car and thanks for joining up on the forum. I think the car is one of the best embodiments of a properly built and prepared way of putting a bloody enormous grin on your chops :D

I cannot wait to see this in action next year. Keep me posted on its debut and maybe we can make sure you're not there unaccompanied :thumb:
