Lucky 8's Project P38

I'll be ordering one of those too when they're available.

My only concerns are the tools and skill levels required to neatly cut the body panels as its not the usual big hole with an even bigger piece of plastic to cover it. I think it would need a very detailed set of instructions and diagrams to make it a DIY proposition.

I would also be very interested in the routing within the engine bay, the RHD models in the UK and here in Australia are laid out slightly differently to the US style LHD models

Hi

This looks great but sadly i fear there is no way i can do any internal routing of tubing unless i move my gas injection stuff :angry:

Is it just you evaporator that's in the way Steve?

Benji,

The evaporator and the controller are in the way .. plus there is the usual stuff like the cruise control unit, the bosch ECU etc

I shall follow this with interest for sure!

There is no substitute for a true locker. That being said the Ashcroft ATB is pretty close when combined with the second-generation P38 traction control.

Many thanks mate. I bet it handles better on high speed dirt....?

Any issues with understeer or front pulling....I have heard mixed reports.

Cheers

Hi

Very interested to see how this is routed under the bonnet (hood) :p

Hi,

Tubing inside the guard (fender), I am liking this very much :p

Steve

The way they have designed that so close and snug to the body is perfect. That is the best fitting snorkel I have seen for a 38 so far. No disrespect to all those that have spent time fabricating their own.

I hear you. Eas, cruise control, Bosch ECU (is that there too??) and in your case the gas stuff should all stay put... fingers crossed.
