Hi All,
Just thought I best introduce myself, I have sent my first post on the cosmo roll call thread that Antoine started with a few pics of my Cosmo 20b
when I first got it home, it has had a little more work done to it since including a full engine rebuild with a street port job all completed by Pip Gardner at WGT Auto development in Middlewich Cheshire. I am still running it in and in all honesty with the weather the way it is in the UK at the moment this will take a while, I have also had a full custom s/s decatted exhaust fitted.
I managed to get one show in before the engine decided to blow it's apex seal that being Rotorstock at Santa Pod in July, I am changing the stock cloth interior out and replacing it with an interior from a 13b sx (Leather) and swapping them over I have also taken the dealer fitted air dam from the 13b and the rear spoiler to have sprayed and fitted to the 20b, I can't make my mind up with regards the side skirts but I do like the front dam from the kit and gives the cosmo a real aggresive look, bit I do like the smooth lines of the original sides of the car without the skirts ( all down to taste really )
Once the engine is run in (broken in for you guys from accross the pond) it is back to Pip to be set up on the rolling road, I have purchased a blitz spec R boost controller to go on at the same time,,(don't want the expense of a rebuild again for a while )
I would love to get my hands on the piggyback chip (Redom) that used to be available years ago, I have read on Dave's posts (DMRH) that Do Engineering had taken this over but I have been on their web site and they do not list it
any help from anybody would be much appreciated as it would be good to get the car set up with this when it goes back to Pip for Tuning
Look forward to hearing from you all
Frank
