Calibra is back on road 8)

However without back box at the moment. Just straight 70mm pipe :mrgreen:
Back box will be ordered and I hope installed on the next week.

Meantime interior was cheched a little bit today.

This is how it looked some time ago

And here is today's pic

Huge thanks to Fraz for the help with steering wheel's purchase/delivery to me and to cc.net for the 'How to'! :)

I didn't want to install that huge backbox as from the very beginning when I bought it. I just grabbed bargain full 70mm stainless steel exhaust from downpipe till the end for 85eur and price wouldn't be decreased if I left backbox at seller. Therefore I cut the backbox off and sold separately.

Got today 295hp on RR 8)
Power graph was still rising but we didn't rev engine over 6140rpm. However now I think we had to rev it till 6500 :lol:
Guy at RR told that engine has definitely 300+ hp, but due to no forced air/cooling machine in front of Calibra results are what they are. Anyway I am pleased.

Finally I got F28! For elec speedo though (have to sell my cruise control now, that was bought here on .net :( ).
Gearbox will be mounted by the end of this week.
Meantime I am missing this part:
Image

I lent this part from my friend U_V6 for a short period, but I do need it.
In case I will not be able to find it for a reasonable price (any offer with shipping to Latvia? :roll: ) I will shorten the one from F20.
And, another question. Is dash from c25xe/x25xe interchangeable with later c20let? Especially with regard to speedo/tacho readings...
