Do you have any close-up pics of the wire routing between the door and pillar? Mine go through the keeper hole right now and it looks ghetto. Thanks

Cheers,

Done a HUGE amount of rewiring this weekend, most of the stereo wiring is done now - just got 4 runs of 8AWG from the RF power 500A2 to the sub, drop sub amp into place, phono, power, earth and switchon to that amp, run wire for front speakers ands its done!
The drivers door wiring is 99% done, got 2 wires left to solder and a bit of heatshrinking/wire protection and routing to do and its done! All wired through the doorjamb (15 wires for drivers door alone!)

Forgot my camera though Will be up there again on Tuesday evening, so will take some pictures then!

Cya,
Sam C

Theres a couple reputable people who say the Porsche Fan conversion is sh!t.....how are your temps in relation to the 36HP shroud? Did you do it for the asthetics or did you see gains?

Oh...very nice paint, looks like green glass....or you just have a decieving camera

Car is definitly one of my favorites.....can't wait to see it complete!

Temperatures were fine... Have NO idea that the temps would be compared to a 36hp shroud! The engine was a tuned 2L T4. I believe Jake's results, as he did a good scientific test, reproducing the conditions for each test, recording weather and a million other variables.

Nope, it really looks like that... Took my time/followed reccomendations and found a good painter!
