Well ... i've been pretty busy once again with the cars ... Milo (the black 128) has since been sold, and i now see it driving all over the shore frequently. Dads 128 (the yellow one) is all up and running again .. reset the timing, and hes had it out for a practice day at pukekohe. It turns out that the engine in that is a real snarler. It seems to have plenty of go, and sounds fantastic. I need to make some adjustments to the front suspension, but that car really seems to go well.
I've now made some progress with the Lancia also .. found a guy who lives close by called Tom who has an immaculate Mk II delta HF turbo, and even more nuts about it than myself. I went for a ride in it .. really sweet little machine. He's sold me a few bits and pieces for mine. So to add to the upgrade list, the Lancia now has an Autosport drivers race seat, a Momo steering wheel, a custom cold air box, a manual boost controller, and a few other bits and pieces. I have purchased a set of white Advanti Racing Hart CP035 15X6.5" racing wheels for it which look amazing, i just have to get some race rubber and redrill them to suit before they will be put on the car. Also, a mark II front bumper which is alot more like the Integrale bumper. This didn't fit straight away, so i have cut and added an alloy plate into it, resprayed it, and cut the notches etc to fit it to the car. I think it looks fantastic - and gives me room for the larger intercooler i have to mount in front. Heres some pics of the bits and pieces anyhow ..
