Looking really good Shaun, Im impressed, and I do prefer the White! (Not Matt Black)

[jayrs]

nice mate.

only thing is, the doors now look out of place being wite on the inside, they should be painted black to match the rest of the inside of the car imo

Don't worry mate, the doors will be painted satin black inside,

We all realised the mistake after they were painted

Carbon door covers will probably find their way in as well

[jayrs]

, if you fitting carbon door covers no point painting them inside is there

[Turboboy67]

I'm not 100% sure I'll fit carbon door cards though

They don't cover the whole of the inside of the door, so those bits need painting anyway

[BALBOA RS]

Think of the weight!!

I thought they looked fine as they were to be honest buddy & the rest of it isn't too shabby either - not sure about that red one though!!

Was good to catch up again yesterday mate, just a shame you couldn't send me on my way with anything!!!

[:: blade ::]

looking good this matey, cant wait for you to take me round combe in it

[jayrs]

fair enough mate, get them painted black, cover some of that white up, far to much

in fact, some nicve graphics like the touring cars would go spanking on that fez now!!!

[Turboboy67]

Cheers for the comments guys,

its coming together nicely and for once ahead of plan

Ross, yeah good to catch up with you fella, I'll let you know when its worth popping up again

Jay, car is staying graphic free mate

And if I'm not 100% happy with the bare carbon panels I might get them painted Frozen White as well

Right, today saw the kit refitted, thats basically it for the bodyshop atm, so the car is coming home at the weekend where I will attempt to make sense of the old wiring loom and start to remove all the unwanted bits of it, The loom will be hidden as much as possible, the main reason really for the bolt on wings.

[fiend]

Looking awesome, love the white.

Can't wait to see it on track when its all done.

[Sphinx]

You're going for the uber cool euro styleee hidden wiring loom...on a track car?!
Very cool, but very odd too

[BC DEVILLE]

Now that ive seen it with the kit on, think im gonna do mine frozen white too.
Love the cut up front doors, cant wait to see it finished.

[Smo]

Woooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo!

Loving how this is coming on, Shaun

[jayrs]

graphic free huh, hmmm, for how long i wonder

[Dave G fsi]

Looking really good mate

[Turboboy67]

Cheers for all your comments guys,

Car is coming home on Friday afternoon

I went around today and they have made an excellant job of re-fitting the kit,

I just need to drill some fresh holes in the bottom of the sills now to attach the skirts on,

They have done it so I can remove the front wings (with kit)

I took my CVH EFI flywheel down to my engine builer last Saturday so I can now start to chase him on when the engine will be ready (I did drop it off to him in January )

Dash will also be sent away within the next week or so for flocking.

[FRSJON]

it just needs my TH's photoshopped on it now...

[Carbonboy69]

looking good matey!!

[D9LSY]

Hi Paul, Hopefully Castle Combe Action Day next April, then Central Day.

Might even get a shackdown trackday in before then, just to see how she goes

[hb69]

Why have you gone for a cvh flywheel Shaun? Probably something obvious im missing

I was getting confused there!

You mean BEDFORD in February

[Turboboy67]

Its considerably lighter than a Zetec one to start with fella.

Luke, na, It won't be done for Feb mate, I'll be surprised if its actually running next year

Probably if it does all go to plan a mid week track day at Combe in March time with an open pit would be ideal.

Car is now coming home next Friday.

[luca]

Im up for Combe whenever you do, hang on i best finish mine too then

[hb69]

Ah right, makes sense now. Your even weight saving with the engine

Fancy an open pit track day at brands next year? Probably when ill next be able to afford one

[Turboboy67]

Fancy an open pit track day at brands next year?

I deffo want to do Brands next year fella,

Ive been a passenger around the Indy circuit but never actually driven it

[JamieFRST]

Don't come in members gallery that often so missed all this progress, looks great bud

[titch1987]

got any updates on this cant wait to see it completed

[Turboboy67]

I've sorted my poverty spec loom now,

Tomorrow will see me strip the unwanted wires from that which includes fuel pump & heater wires.

Work has slowed due to my workload atm and the weather of course

I'm still hoping for the engine to be in for Christmas.

If its dry tomorrow I'll roll it out of the garage and take a few pictures with my new wheels on

[rsonblackwheels]

sounds good mate, i know what you mean about the weather, can be hard to get motervated when its grim outside

bring on the pics

[jayrs]

lok forward to the pics mate

[Turboboy67]

Sorry for the lack of updates guys,

Due to the bad weather the car is still tucked under its cover in the garage

But, I have a small progress report,

Willwood 4 pots have arrived

Dash and steering column surrounds have been dropped off for flocking (pictures next weekend when collected)

New coilover springs are here 350lbs front/ 450 lbs rear

Just need some decent weather now

[jayrs]

nice mate, them wilwoods will be the b0llocks, be better on my xr2 though

[rs-tom]

thats how you do things properly
