redae71 Posted October 31, 2009 Author Report Posted October 31, 2009 got around to flaring my front guards today, it was sooooooo easy seriously way easier than i thought it would be and it turned out 1000% better than i thought it would! also finally got my handbrake working, thanks to those who helped me in my post.... still to go is rest of bodywork and paint, custom exhaust engine management, cage, bucket seat and a couple oil leaks, then off to the track whichever one it may be!

redae71 Posted December 15, 2009 Author Report Posted December 15, 2009 ok its been a while since ive updated this, still havent done much due to xmas etc but i will be getting stuck into it first thing in the new year, in this order, 1. tailshaft 2. rust 3. seat 4. ecu 5. cage 6. exhaust (thinkin side pipes i dunno what do you think?) 7. engine oil leak (front crank seal and turbo oil drain) finally i will take it down to my work and do the wheel alignment and give it a test run before the track, run it to ensure no leaks etc and take it for a run on the street to make sure it drives straight and no odd noises etc, then re tighten every bolt i can see and then its track time. at least i hope it goes that easy :y: anyone who can help with any of these things in my list in anyway, plz do so :P namely cage and rust:) Quote
