It’s going ‘Gav’ grey with black trim, same as the Sport 160 I did last year. Im also thinking of doing some race decals the same as my original orange S2 Exige that I ran in the LOT series in 07’. The car has the same design on it to this day and still looks f@�king awesome every time I see it (even if I do say so myself…). If anyone is allowed to run that design it’s me 
Oh… it looks like that when it’s clean lol 
Certainly cleaner than when I last saw it 
It was clean when I set off, honest!! :whistles:
Seeing as I have nothing to update on the build here is another couple of gratuitous pics of the 160 for your/my pleasure (any excuse) -
In it’s original colour the day it was going to the body shop -
Nice mate really nice, loving that 
It is great fun, I fully understand the passion for the S1 now after owning one as it’s truly addictive to drive. Horrible on the main roads in traffic but get on the open country roads and it is brilliant. More than enough power that you can have fun yet not get too carried away on the public highways and its cheap as chips to run for the performance and enjoyment you get back from it.
Very nice job, well done !!!
Wow that looks ace, what colour is it? Is it satin or is that just the photos?
It’s a matte top coat
The Sun has got his hat on. Hip, hip, hip, hooray.
The Sun has got his hat on and he’s coming out to play.
Woohoo! Pilbeam!
New brake pedal with front/rear balance bar -
New accelerator pedal with a link bar to the electronic throttle pot -
Mounting the throttle pot on the chassis plate. It’s a very tight fit what with the loom plug needing to be able to fit over the terminal on one side and the steering column the other -
The pedal box mounting plate is bonded and riveted to the chassis from the factory, what a nightmare of a job getting it out!! There was no way it was getting put back in the same way… Drilled and bolted is the way forwards -
The clutch pedal and brake pedal mount up together on the same plate and are next to go in-
Master cylinder mounting block -
Master cylinders bolted in place and attached to the pedals -
Not quite a wohoo yet Steve. Tbh I’ve had a couple of issues with the kit in which I have had to send certain parts back and also finish off parts of the job i had asked for myself…
After waiting 2 months+ it wasn’t quite the service I was expecting… Of course the bits that were wrong were the very first ones i pulled out of the box so it just got me in a bad mood about everything before I had even started.
They are sorting it out it asap but it really shouldn’t have even left there as it did.
I still hold faith in the kit as the rest of it all seems good, it’s just the proof will definitely be in eating the pudding on this one before I start to rave on about it too much…
Finally arrived then Gav…
Edit after reading the above…arrived sort of

Exactly that, arrived sort of…
Yea can imagine how pissed off you are, I know you’ve been itching to get it done…Still nothing a little carbon fibre can’t sort lol

Sorry to hear that Gav…
Mine were similar waits because of some of the AP bits, I got their bias adjuster cable too and that took forever!
Definately one of the worst jobs on the car to fit. I was upsidedown in the footwell for so long at one point, I felt nauseus for ages afterwards.
On the upside it’s most definately one of the best mods I’ve done to my car.
Hope it all gets sorted for you soon fella.
They are sorting it out no problem and have been very apologetic, its just the hassle factor of it now after waiting for so long for it to arrive in the first place.
Anyways we’ll forget about it and crack on, it will be more than right when it comes back I’m sure of that. I am so looking forward to eating that pudding…!!
Exactly the same reason I have left the cabin completey bare to give me room underneath to fuck about, even with nothing (I do mean nothing) in there it’s still an awkward job which I’m pleased is the best part finished… Saying that I still have the loom to run though which will undoubtably have me crippled somewhere along the line…
