Been a bit slow of late bit still progressing
Picked up some 245/50R15 slicks for the fronts and I'll get some 275/50's for the rear
Next job is the wiring. I've got an EzyWire kit to hopefully make things easier
Got some billet switches made up. I've always wanted a potato button for some stupid reason so here it is. This will be the horn. The panty dropper will be the start button!!
Then we made a switch panel to mount this all on the dash board to the left of the steering wheel
That's enough for now so a drink is in order!

nice one matt...enjoy your drink...cheers mark
Looking good. Was wondering when we'd see an update.
Where did you get those switches? They look great. Did you supply the images or where they from a selection?
You still on track to make June?
By the way, I couldn't help myself. That spare 4dr shell now has a donor roof, doors, rally tyres, buckets harness and picking up a 6 point weld in cage on Thursday. Going to throw a pinto and webers with RX8 box in it I have lying around. Will serve as a practice car before I build my arched 2 door. Should be a good laugh throwing around a car I don't care for...

Hey Mate,
I got the switches from here. https://billetautomotivebuttons.com/...billet-buttons
Realistically not going to make June but won't be far off
Great job on the 4 door too! Can't wait to see it in racing anger
Cheers
Matt
Switch box now all folded up
Going to mount this here so it is in my field of vision
Then got more fittings to mount the fuel pressure sensor in the fuel line

Any thoughts on painting, dipping or wrapping the box?
I'd love some feedback
cheers

the ezy wire kit is very easy
The hardest part is making it look good

the stupid K&N filters don't fit over the large trumpets so I need to get a new filter set up
Im thinking of a pipercross airbox set up
few pics of the trumpets that are too big for the filters
The painting will be done in the next 2 weeks so really looking forward to seeing it all come together asap
Thanks for looking
Fuse box mounted
Donuts always help things go faster!
Getting ready for paint
First thing is to cut the hole for the vent again
Then the rub back begins
then moved car to the paint booth
5 hours of taping it up.....
First colour is on!! it's now 11:30 pm so we've been at it 18 hrs
time for sleep and more tomorrow
tomorrow we'll finish it off
Thanks for looking
coming together nicely
Woohoo...….
Must be satisfying to finally see some paint going on.
Cant wait to see the next update.
Shaun
So its been a big day so bear with me a lot happened
First we painted the red and the flares and spoiler
The masked that up to do the black
Then after 4 hours of masking we were finally ready for the green
Then on with the green
then time to rip off all the tape and see how it looks
You guys tell me what you think. I know what I think
Got a few minutes so I put the flares on and changed the wheels back
Starting to really look good now
Nice car
that looks wicked
I like that. A lot.
Doh.
I was hoping for another update....
Sorry Mate,
It'll be a few weeks as Sandy is away till then so not much going to happen but hoping for a track day in October so it won't be long
Cheers
Matt
