As the moderators don`t want to exept my request I just aswell can update here too..


And here are the containers for brake fluid in..







Today I have ordered 80m of steel braided teflon hose for my fuel and oiling...

And I got the new tubes for the exhaust manifold, was hoping to get the Turbo this week.
But I don`t think thst will happend..

[vest_racing]

Got the tracking number for the intercooler and the turbo, so that is on it`s way..

Also got my new Handbrake today..:icon_tup:



Made braket for the handbrake today.









And here is a valve that will be fitted where the on the brake line betwen the hand brake and brakeline that runs to the rear..
Will prevent full lock off rear wheels..








Also got some Methanol today, this is for mixing the solarflux..

No drift setup.. Just put it that way for fun..:Laugh


Looks like I have to modify the rear brakets for the coilovers too..
The Nitrons are way to long for my setup, and there are no hight adjusting on them.

So then I have to cut and weld in the back too.. :cool
In front I moved the brakets up about 2-2.5".

AWESOME THREAD!!!!!!
 
just read all of it and a lot of respect for all the work you have done, so happy you kept updating and will be keeping an eye on this

The turbo is here..:Thumbs-up

[AtomicRex]

I dont think those photos do the size of the turbo justice!
 
With regards to the Nitrons...what is wrong with them at the rear?
 
You cant alter the physical length of any damper unit, as that would require you to cut the rod.  Have you altered the pick up points at the rear?  If so....may have been a good idea to have told me about that before ordering?? :p
 
You can drop the height though on the spring platforms.

I will take some other pics of the Turbo when I get home from work..

Nothing wrong with the Nitrons, just that the car is to high in the rear..:cool

So I will just lift the pickup point at the top on the car..
U shouldnt lower the car by droping the tension bolts on the springs..


On hight adj coilovers they adjust it on the lower part of the damper, the lower part of the damper is like a nut..:Laugh
Was hard to find the words..:rollin

[vest_racing]

Turbo.,








Teflon hoses.

[MaLicE]

dropping the spring platform takes the preload off the springs though doesnt it?

yeh just what i was saying if you drop the height by lowering the spring platform it will take the preload off the spring and on full extension the spring could rattle around... as said on height adjustable coilovers the bottom bracket is on a seperate collar which allows you to keep spring preload and adjust the height...

like on these...

[vest_racing]

Yes that was what I was trying to say..:Thumbs-up
