And 95% of the parts i have to fit still have some coming from japan/USA/Missile motorsport (AU) but by the time i finish everything i have to do they should be here.

the goals for the car are just to be a fun safe car to drive that i enjoy could not care about making it a top drift car or a top circuit car just want to have fun with it there is one goal i want to do but nothing major.

Parts in boxes

Anyway started working on the engine bay was never going to tub the car but turned out i would be better off doing it now then trying to do it later on

https://fbcdn-sphotos-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-snc7/392014_10151113664620387_604225386_22433942_143376 060_n.jpg

Removed engine and transmission ready to build up everything correctly it was then i decided to take the step from street car to more of a race car and removed heater aircon and radio. i still have electric windows and central locking but as with no heater i need windows to keep me warm or cool.

I ended up removing the loom from the car and started working on cleaning it all up. last night/this morning. just finished going to wait for office works to open so i can print off some loom diagrams and get to work sorting what i need and what i do not need.

And working with a friend who builds open wheel race cars and other things to help with some one off custom parts to help me.
http://a8.sphotos.ak.fbcdn.net/hphotos-ak-ash4/420866_10151284661350387_604225386_22994256_503396 956_n.jpg

rose jointed style castor rod bearings. i also have these getting made for the rear knuckle to.

im having issues finding a windscreen at the moment due to the car being rare here in aust :( but car is coming along nice and i just got a new job so i hope to get some work going soon as more money can be put back into this project.

im looking at making a custom loom for it now. since i worked out i hardly have anything STOCK in the car and i have everything but a speedo/Tacho/Fuel gauge to be wired in so i started looking into GPS Speedo units and just use my turbo timer RPM digital read out with a shift light and i will work something out for fuel...

but yeah if anyone has re wired a car please give me some pointers OH ALSO as you see front diffuser/splitter i plan on putting down a flat floor and rear diffuser of some sort and i have just put a depoist on a voltex rear wing to keep the ass gripping.



UPDATED 1st thread with build as i could fit in will move on from here now with updates :D

Here is a picture of the OLD X8 Progressive power steering rack vs my new X7 rack changes the steering ratio from the old lock to lock of 3.7 turns to 2.7 and with knuckles and solid rear end i should have what i hope to be go kart like steering.

Old tire placed back on just to sit on..... cross member sitting at about 130mm off the ground still have two inchs of adjustment to lower the coilovers but yeah once kit is fitted i think it will be low enough.
