Monster-Mat

yep, the rear lights are Ultra rare TOMS lights, so i dont have them on the car for drifting..... ok, this is the current idea....this is being favored as it has many Japanese culture points, im sure canter will know the picture of the waves........with Mount Fuji in the background

Some pics from the Japshow demo.....

drivers side footplate Passenger side footplate Willans Harness Gearknob :thumbup:

not sure on weight at the moment....but the sound matting on the floors weighed 18kg in total..the 2 electric seats weigh 40kg each, carpet is about 5kg, plus the trunk area stuff, so id say ive removed, so far around 110-130kg of crap from the car

the old rims were to small, and 2 expensive to drift on :tooth:

Neu Felgen...Vorn 8.5 x 18, Hintern 9.5 x 18 Rota GTR

And so the new Phase starts....... as some will be aware parts have started to be sold off...... the result a slowley lighter shell is born.. The back seats, parcel shelf and ski hatch painted inside the trunk..... Made up the new seat mounts and mounted the seats Remove.....everything remove sound matting ;) repaint the floor seats

what.........? need a good GT spoiler......cant find one though

First ever test.............. Monster drift at Rockingham

new pics

nope, but its the second car in the Team

well today some bits were done to both drift lex.... The inside Both lex in workshop The fuel system, awaiting fuel lines Fibreglass bonnet (3.1 kilo) Spoilerless bootlid, New rear bumper skirt Both lex again.... Swap shop.......changing of a few body panels around

not much has happened the last week...... today ive boxed in the lower rear arms, this will make them significantly stronger and a nice lick of paint

Klick :thumbdown:

no problem for a super hero like me ;)

just had a delivery by Fedex...... :thumbdown: my pipes to make my turbo manifold i think i may have ordered 2 much, however better to have too nuch than not enough The custom collector...inside and outside i have the head flange, now i have the pipes and collector, i ven have the turbo flange........soon i can start making the manifold :(

:g: i would just unbolt it, anyway to get the engine in.. :)

so there i was............working nights again.....(or supposed to be) Thought i would have a go at replacing the rubber diff mounts for the aluminum solid diff mounts Old Diff mounts in subframe Old diff mounts..........out of subframe new diff mounts, in nice painted subframe next i had a go at setting up the V-mount configuration for the radiator and intercooler, this took bloomin ages!! Front, bonnet down front, bonnet up Top view Rear view Side view now im happy with the location i need to modify the radiator filler, and inlet / outlet pipes and start to make up the brackets to hold it all into place, the intercooler inlet/outlets need changing aswell........time to crank up the TIG machine

so last night i was working.......or supposed to be, well i was "in work" so that counts did a bit more on the instruments..... blacked out the aluminium panel and fitted the boost guage (fitted in the drivers vent) Fitted the shift light (top of the console) and the adjuster knob for the brake bias (Red Knob) dash is trimmed down in preperation for the new centre console Rather than paying 50 million to have TRD bushes fitted i have used an old "racers" trick, of filling the bushes with RTV sealent Just starting to fill one of the bushes. Same bush filled and the subframe, with all bushes filled with RTV

More goodies arrived today...... and a very crucial part,................... The fuel pressure Guage did some more Dirty work, Today i started the strip down of the Subframe and in bits and stripped the old paint out the engine bay, and gave it a new lick of paint well spent the day doing some work on the dash, after Trimming it down, and removing the parts of the vent system that wont be required, i started having a look at mounting some of the gauges..., i wanted to use the original area for a more factory look, so in the binacle ive mounted the Tachometer, fuel pressure gauge and the fuel level gauge, i still have to mount.....somewhere.....Boost, oil temp, oil pressure, Volt meter, water temp, and the lcd display for EGT....... here are the 3 binacle mounted Gauges also made up the bracket, and mounted the oil pots...for the brakes and clutch and test fitted the HKS oil cooler, some modification was and still is needed, i want to make more sturdy mounting points, im also thinking of mounting a small fan on the cooler for when the car is static after a hard run
