the airflow system or the car finished.

if your talking about the log mod yeah i can take photos, but if your reffering to the cars front being complete I'm currently saving money for the paint job and welding a new scutter panel in.
I have a photoshop of it sorta looking finished with flared gards except the grill and bumper.

update I have just bought a ET.

I am planing on donating the motor to the exa and using all the parts I can to get it complete again.

So there it is a pulsar with all parts it was worth a wait.

hey benny yes it has done

232 kms

Turbo has been reconditioned in this one.
Head has been reconditioned.

Far as I know the guy 2 grand then gave up.

Its had about 4 - 5 owners from what I can gather from rego papers and other papers found in the glove box.

back to the exa
Your wiring loom is shit how did it get in that condition looks like you have spliced it for a tacho meter some point.

I'm not sure where you got that other wiring loom from that was in the boot. I'm thinking you bought it to replace that other one or its the original one?

Nah, thats just the way the Exa looms are. I had 3 in it over the years. All looked the same.
I did cut one back and solder / heat shrink it when I was having loom issues tho. One in the boot is an ET loom, some of the plugs aren't the same as the motor in it, cause its got the later mod engine with high rise turbo.

Clean the engine bay up abit to make it look a little tidier :-P

When you get a new bonnet or fix this one be sure to use bonnet pins lol, I have some here to go on my exa, Also i like how the bonnet is sitting higher, Might keep the engine temps down abit lower?
Hey Baz someone has finally come up with your idea.
