FlikstRR · March 16, 2009, 06:24:25 AM

Rather than just copy paste from my main build thread, can I ask you to check the link out if you wish to follow the build. Driftworks allows more images and it breaks up nicely...

Its a UK Rx7 FC Turbo2..

^^ What they said ^^

Some excellent photos of the work in progress and how the aftermarket suspension components and steering goes together.

Thats Phil\'s from RX Motors. Theres some action shots of it from when I took him to Pod.. he wasw learning pretty fast.

Doubt you\'ll get his wheels though.. they have an odd history (and glow in the dark!!!)

Cant say enough about the HSD\'d they\'re spot on. did me well at pod and anyone whos been there can say that upper car park is NOT smooth.

Oh and yea its going a really bright green. nearly kawasaki but not.. Kawa green needed special water which was uuuber expensive, and Like i said im totally skint now.

We will release all 5 Team Green Cars at once I believe).

Any idea how much work it was to remove the speaker housings from the rear turrets?

Looks the nuts!

Awesome thread man! How the hell did you get your Sparco seat to fit? I\'m in the process of fitting one in my FC but it seems It\'s going to sit too high!

Must be amazing having access to all that garage equipment!

thats an epic write up

@brett.. wasnt too bad.. used a fancy spot weld removal drill thingy mainly and a bit of a love tap with a chisel. hardly any marks at all then cpould be sanded nicely, course I had the cage mounts over it so didnt mind.

@retro.. Yeah my seat is a little high but its survivable and I will easily get used to it.. i can still have a helmet on and not have limited movement or awkwardness. so Im happy.

I\'ll probably be at a MRC meet when theres one near surrey london or reading or you can check it out at BDC. if u like.

The brooklamds meet is in a few weeks - well worth going too

Retro_Boy_G · March 16, 2009, 12:34:22 PM

Cheers dude, It will be my mission tonight to get them to fit! They are Sparco Junior as well so I thought they would have been smaller and just slipped in!
