No compromise Supercharged ek9 build


Front studs are a pain as you have to split the hubs, good chance to fit new wheel bearings though

Gauges look great!
 
Thanks guys.

Blitz- Replacing the studs wasn't that difficult but just time consuming. The hardest part is splitting the hub apart the rest was straight forward. The defi bank reads Water temp, Oil temp and oil/fuel pressure depending on which sensor you have.
 
Cool thanks for the info, very tempted by the defi, just don't want to lose the double din just yet though lol
 
This is an awesome project, very lenthy and great attention to detail! :D
 
Spent the weekend detailing the car for the photoshoot. Big thanks to ben for machine polishing the car and to greg for letting us use his garage. cheers guys :)

Hi man the quality of your work is just stunning!!! The car will be as new!!!

Can I ask you where you found your resonated decat?
 
cheers guys :)

Resonated decat was from ebay mate. type in 2.5" JDM resonated decat and it should come up.
 
cheers ek_MO :)

MWLOL. Probably one of the best purchases i made tbh. Not too raspy and allows for better flow, which is exactly what i needed from a straight bit of pipe lol.
