frsjon silly question are you a metal fabricator by trade this is awe inspiring
the car is immaculate this is the level I one day wish to be able to fabricate might take me 10 years but one day lol

[Dave G fsi]

Stunning workmanship as usual Jon

[Turboboy67]

I like that washer jet mate, done I assume so you don't have to cut a hole in the bonnet

When are you expecting to fire it up ?, and how long before it has some working brakes ?

[ddrsturbo]

well i wasnt going to bother with washer jets but as the hole was spare it would be rude not to well...fire up date seems further away each time i go to the car ..fitted the ecu into the carbon panel but can only get one fixing under the dash so now need to make something to hold it in place working brakes...well i really think nath has lost all interest in the car now he has a women was meeting him down the car the other day for the first time in about 4 months but he called to say he wasnt allowed out to play so god knows on the pedal box

[FRSJON]

[pauldolman]

looking good jon, some nice little touches with the carbon custom detailing matey

[FRSJON]

cheers paul

well the first lot of my many recent purchases have turned up





we have...4ltr lifeline plumbed in fire exstingusher,2 ltr hand held,boost gauge and water temp sender from msd, a bracket to hold my fuel filter and lots of p clips for the wiring.. lots more on its way !

[jonyb4]

haha nice, will that plumbed in extinguisher be directed at the engine bay?

[FRSJON]

haha nice, will that plumbed in extinguisher be directed at the engine bay?

it has 4 nozzles ..normal FIA regs are two to engine bay and one to each foot well..so thats how ill do it..hopefully if there ever is a fire the hand held will sort it out but saftey first. also a quick release steering wheel hub is on its way as the cabin would be a mare to get out of quickly because of the seats and the door bars.

[Dave G fsi]

Nice one Jon, always nice to know all the necessary safety equipment is there just incase....

This project is really coming together now

[FRSJON]

a few weeks ago i ordered the obp pedal box for the car ,then everyone that already owned a set started telling me they werent up to the job so i sent them back and bought these...........





lots more parts have been bought but nothing has been fitted yet as i never get the time .. over on the mainland tomorrow collecting parts..
plus a big thank you to luke as i will be in posession of yet more carbon very soon

[jayrs]

[- Danny Boy -]

Nice pedals! More carbon sounds good!!

[Dave G fsi]

Pedals look really good Jon, nice one

[FRSJON]

Pedals look really good Jon, nice one

cheers dave,more parts bought today ..another set of wheels with toyo 888's and some expensive engine internals ..going to build up another (better) engine in case we have trouble with this one..thats if the car ever gets finished

[Dave G fsi]

Sounds good

I always think its best not to rush a project too, as you will end up taking shortcuts that you will regret when the project is done

[jonyb4]

another engine?! metal i love it
