Looking great bud! My gearbox looked like that as well. It's such a mission cleaning and prepping engine parts, but so rewarding when its all done :)

Not much left to do on this now

just need to have a new oil return line made up (from turbo to sump) as we don't like the OEM one due to been close to driveshaft

Gear linkage to fit, then fit the Exhaust and modify the fan cowling to suit the Intercooler


here is a few shots of work done last few evenings and this weekend


Gearbox finally cleaned and ready for paint





Fully painted Satin black



Fitted thepick up pipe and new restrictor (old one was very brittle)





Loom ready



K03S Turbo fully rebuilt and given the Hybrid treatment





Engine meets its new home

brad i would use flat sheet when you do your sumps in future, cheaper and checker board is for grip, if the sump is gonna hit the floor you want it to skid! i suppose they will get ground off anyway  :grin:

Hi mate, could you do me a favour and have a look at the part no for the top breather hose in this pic? Blue Y piece.



Cheers.
