Nope haven't fired it up since. Am still trying to locate the required sensor for less than the £124 Yamaha want for one!!! :saywhat:

I've got tomorrow off with the view to trying to get most of the wiring loom sorted! possibly finishing of the water system aswell and maybe even get the sprocket changed and put the chain on. Am also waiting on a few parts so I can finish of some other little bits and bobs........

Ade, just been looking at your website. that car is looking amazing! I have GOT to get me one of those when I grow up!

[Ade]

Thanks I'm pretty pleased with it! :grin:

Hopefully I'll get some more pics up of the car this weekend. Looks different with the windscreen in :tongue:

Hey Ade just wondering where you got the dials from - how much damage did it do to your wallet?

Ade, just been looking at your website.  that car is looking amazing! I have GOT to get me one of those when I grow up!

Thats exactly what Ade thought, only his choice of words were 'when I get bigger....' :tongue:

[Ade]

The dials were from a company called Revotech. I'll dig out their contact details if you want me to. I'm really pleased with them!

Pete and I basically beat the poor guy up at a kit car show to get a good deal out of him. IIRC we got all the dials (Speedo, Tacho, Oil and water Pressure and fuel level) plus all the electronic senders for about £356 ish each..... We did also buy some fans and some silicon hosing from him. But A very nice chap done us proud :grin:

And as for you Jammy........ :tongue: People didn't think I could get any bigger but I'm working on proving them wrong :grin: :tongue:

[The Matt]

Hmmm, I aint gonna get into this calling each other big thing. I is gonna sit back and watch (hoping nobody finds out about the size of me gut)!!!
