engine is nearly all wired up, just waiting for the crank trigger to arrive but everything else is done.
my racepak dash fit into the standard cluster shroud pretty snug! its not completely finished yet. still have to swap the red led's to the correct colours and paint the inset panel.

New sparco seats, harnesses, carpet and steering wheel arrived Friday, so i spent Saturday making the floor mounts up for them. This week the plan is to fix the rear of the cage and get the inside of the car ready for paint and maybe fab up the fuel cell. I booked the car in to have the door panels and rooflining made in 2 weeks.

08-04-12, 18:22 GMT+10#75 im trying for around 450 at the tread at this stage. i can change turbo and build a new manifold later on if i get real keen. everything else i should have to touch. daily is so much fun. i took a dodgy engine bay shot yesterday arvo.
folded up the pieces for the cell yesterday, ill wait for my filters and stuff to arrive on tuesday to before i get my mate to start building it. rear fire wall bit is sheeted up. i went a bit different and made it so all the cage and notch is in the cabin. i also started paint the underside of the car, the diff and all the 4 link bars.
