Love the Rad and IC setup, looks great

Darryl C

Well done on the big effort so far. Love the exhausts out the back. Will look good when they are sending some flames out from up there.

Jimbo II

Awesome stuff!

I assume the mounting of the exhausts is so you can install a big *** diffuser?

Sicknote

Thanks fella, took a fair bit of jiggery pokery to get it really low.

Thanks Darryl, should be entertaining, as the left pipe is slightly longer it should be phased flamage too !! lol

Hi Jimbo, exactly for that very reason, a complete flat floor with big diffuser !!

Erdin

Look good Dave

Sicknote

lol, thanks my good man.

Righty, First tonight was to position the extinguisher bottle and prep the gearstick to accept the Shimano neutral release








Then started the fabrication for the exhaust covers.











And voila, these are the sides that will be welded down and the cover will be bolted to them when we make them tomorrow.

Sicknote

And another bigish job was to fabricate the gearbox tunnel cover.... more cardboard !!








I've cut a lot of the process out but here was the end result and the almost completed cockpit including the transfer of
the handbrake lever to the other side. :thumbsup:

This is one of the most bad *** cars/builds I've ever seen and I read through build threads on all the forums I'm on.

I really wish I had money.

Sicknote

Thanks very much, it's comments like that that keep my enthusiasm up and want to carry on !!

OK, tonight was dedicated to the exhaust cans cover, positioning the dash to accept the gear select lever and
the passenger footwell floor (no pics yet).

The Exhaust cover


















And the dash work to accept the gear selector lever.





And the almost finished article with all the controls now in place.





And a slightly out of focus one from the other side.

Hi m8,

what gear box are using for your project please?

REgards,

Sicknote

Hi Iwan, this is a MakTrak sequential gearbox.

Right, another few jobs done tonight, we needed to get the rear hatch sorted so Stando and Eyo got to work on that
horrible job.

Plenty of Aerocatch's to go on :thumbsup:




















And the finished article......

Sicknote

The other job was to fix the gearbox cover into place, Balky is our welding man for the job. :thumbsup:











I had Roger tig weld the selector release bracket that we made a few days earlier onto the tunnel cover this morning.

Erdin

Loving fab work,as per usual. gear box looks great too

Sicknote

The throttle pedal went on today (no pics as I started feeling ill)

We put the rear stansions and wing on together with the rear lights... starting to look like a car again !! :thumbsup:

Only prob is we're not happy with the way the rear wing sits so the stansions will have to be re-made with a more aggressive angle.

deepdezal1

Very cool build!

what wing is that? I'm not happy with the way the wing sits either haha. Looks plenty strong....but a little tooo "erect"

This weekend the wiring commenced. :thumbsup:


Most of this on the floor is being binned, we just strung it all out incase there are any connectors that are required.











These are the two protagonists on the wiring case 1!! :thumbsup:








Sooo neat, you can't really make out that the fueling system wiring is complete.




And it all continues today.

Sicknote

Not many pics for a lot of wiring work.. soz.


This is obviously the best way to wire an FD !!!





This is the hub of the wiring, took plenty of working out and planning. :thumbsup:





And laid in the car (will be higher and fixed to the bulkhead) together with the battery nicely positioned on the tunnel.

Sicknote

Thanks David, much appreciated. :thumbsup:


This will keep us busy this weekend, the full MoTeC wiring loom and to the right is the MoTeC rotary switch for 10 boost settings.

Sicknote

This is the new lighter and smaller race alternator, would have been MUCH smaller if K-II wasn't going to be
road legal, but this little baby still knocks out 120 amps.

Sicknote

Phase II of the wiring proved to be VERY problematic

The new MoTeC looms don't match up to the older ECU's even though theyre still labeled M600 and M800, thus ALL the pins had to be
taken out of the blocks, tested and re-routed, this took UBBER amounts of time.





This was Geoffs re-routing diagram. loooooool !!!

Sicknote

Once all the pins were put back in the correct places the loom could then be prepared for installation





And in it goes
