no, i forgot the front and rear exentric shaft seal. Im ordering those parts tomorrow. i am also waiting for the autronic to arrive. Hopefully i will get that to run without any big problems.
Because of the parts i forgot to order i wont be able to build the REW engine this week. I hope i`ll manage to rebuild the RE tomorrow and maybe get it into the car.
Today ive been "Playing" with the molds again. The only mold i have left is the rear bumper! Ive also removed more sound dampening inside the car, removed the speaker "box" from the rear suspension strut towers and i removed ALOT of usless wiring
I only need lights and wiring to the fuelpump

Painted the inside of the car today! I sanded it down inside the garage, pushed it out in -5 celsius... sprayed it.. pushed it inside and turned the heat on!
The result was interesting. Far away from perfect but good enaugh for drifting. It looks okey and i have one color inside insted of 3

This is almost as good as sex! Damn! Getting that bumper out was a paaain in the *** since i didnt use the correct "slip"-spray! Anyway, the mold turned out PERFECT. The plug(front bumper) got damaged but repairable. Anyway, now i can make hundreds of bumpers so i dont care if the first one is broken

maybe is should just finnish it and see how it looks with the spoiler.. In the end, if it still looks bad i can change it to a regular lexan window since i have three more rear windows and frames!
