Deadener is out, I love dry ice, 3.9kgs of deadener, not much but it all adds up

Cheers mate

 

I've been flat out the last few weekends with track maintainance, khanacross, winton 6 hour and just general stuff that takes up all your time. My brother did some more welding on the bay for me last weekend and hopefully finishing it this coming weekend, gonna make up some mounting brackets for the IRS at work this week then try and get them welded in this weekend or next then box out the floor, notch and brace the chassis, fit the diff mount and fit up some coil overs. Hopefully nothing gets in the way of my plans

Made the front mounts for the rear end this week, now that the long weekend is here I'll get stuck into fitting it up

Great job gona be fast!

I hope so, got a few people in the club with big egos that need to be beaten by a little old corolla

[Tough_little_ke20]

Pretty happy with today's progress cut off the spring hangers, chopped some holes in the floor, notched the chassis and tacked in the mounts, tomorrow I will hopefully get it welded in properly and notch the chassis for the control arm and cut out the wheel well and work out where the diff mounts need to be and I will make the mounts on Wednesday when I get back to work

Finally I'm back in :) the sight has been mucking up on me since monday haven't be able to post anything, so on Monday I cut some more big holes and chopped up the chassis to fit the control arms and everything seems to be right and I'm now working on the rear diff support. Should get that done some time this week, then ill tidy it all up and make some strut towers then fill in all the big gaping holes

This is looking good mate. I went and spoke to a fabricator I know about doing this for my coupe.. Hah aahhh I don't think il be going that path. Il just look on at yours with envy

[Tough_little_ke20]

Haha it's not as much work as it seams, it's easier than a 4 link in my opinion, but you really need the car on a rotisery, makes it so much easier

[Tough_little_ke20]

Safe to say I've been extremely lazy with the build so I thought I better do some work on it today, so the rear end is now mounted up properly, with the suspension at the same height as my brothers ke55 there is -1.3° camber on both sides so I'm very happy with that, now I need to clean up at the bits of chassis I chopped out then rebuild the chassis but on the inside of the car, fill in all the holes and make up some strut towers

Time to get sheeting

Merry Christmas everyone, hope your rollas spoil you
