Engine bay bling: Ming vs H5 1 year long challenge


Recommended Posts

Posted

Hi Guys

Any one know the date for Trax next year, and so that I know .... where is it.

If it is to be the 'bling off' then I need to look at somewhere I can CLEAN HER!!

This is going to drive Mrs Ming mad now for months to come.

She knows I hate to lose :D

It has the potential to be the most expensive 6 pack of beer EVER!! :teeth:

It's at Silverstone every year I think, and is always end of August / beginning of September.

 

How's that for location Ming? Failing that, I vote my house!! :teeth:

H5

If it stays at Silverstone then its about 1 hr 45 away for me and looks good enough to make a weekend of it.

It gets my vote.

Does the site have a club get together for this! It would be great to meet a few faces at the same time?

My ebay purchase arrived yesterday and allthough a large chunk of it is off down thepowder coaters I decided to polish up the filter itself - mrs Ming is out so I can do it in the house :) and play with the computer at the same time!!

Here are the results

I will post up the powder coated pics as soon as I get them - the plenum is already in!!

Yeah

A couple of hiccups along the way but it got here in the end.

Its gonna look top dollar when its all blinged up and fitted!! :thumbs:

The filter is the only bit I cant get powder coated as it doesn't come apart but it has polished up really well so i am quite happy.

Was yours an easy fit? It looks like it should go on OK. It even comes with a straight fit for the MAS so no fiddling about there either i reckon!

Ming/H5

This is clearly a long-term project and perhaps both of you will be reluctant to post your advances before 'Judgement Day'

 

Is it possible to base the contest both on coursework (as against the current educational FAD) and a final exam - to keep us mortals interested ( I want to be intrigued for the next 12 months ...)

 

Perhaps a 2-monthly vote with each one contributing 10% with 40% as a final tits out reveal :)
