havent updated for ages!

weve been busy building,
so far the chassis is all welded up , built the wishbones mocked up the engine and gearbox , had the prop shortened.
Made a sweet full rollcage same as the plans on the forum i found, will get some photos up this weekend!
last weekend we painted the rollcage and chassis, its looking good!
got to paint the wishbones and uprights tomorrow.
Hopefully be fitting the aly floor this weekend just waiting for a mate to deliver the sheet.

Yesterday we recieved our long awaited package, inside was the following;

Front 283mm Midilite kit , inc pads, x-drilled and grooved disks.

Rear Dynapro with 257mm disc., pads x-drilled and grooved.

These are a new conversion, even lighter 2 pot rear wilwood calipers

GRP seats
TRS harnesses
RMD Wheels in black
Polybush set
Mushrooms
protech shockers and springs

i will get some photos up cause the brake kits are awesome!

weve fitted an obp pedal box fitted with wilwood master cylinders, so im hopeing that should sort out the braking!
Im a late braker

next week we should recieve the bodykit from saturn

were getting there

Been doing my side pannels too.. I had to trim the lower lip as it was not passing the floor.

Yours is looking good
