I finally got some progress done! Engine and transmission is in and I'll start hooking things up soon!

Thermo-tec two sheets of 12x24 heat barrier, sticks very well!

It's a pain to clean the underside!
Attachment 625696
Finished product, I may use a roll on coating for the rest of the tunnel once I figure out how much this helps.

Trains is filled with oil and ready to go in. The HKS twin disc clutch is a pain to get the release bearing out of. You have to remove the first plate of the clutch to get it out!

i've done one track event on them and they were fine.

i have the fronts set to about 50% "stiff" and the rears almost full "soft".


i alos drive the car about 1/2 the time split with my old lexus DD. for street driving i set them at full soft all around and they're fine.

Decided I would strip the Koyorad paint off the radiator as best I could and repaint it with this! I stenciled out the design in cardboard and then sprayed away with high temp paint.

Still is still a little bit of the old paint on there but it looks good.

Attachment 625292

Once I figure out the front wiring harness the V-mount will be in. Had to extend the stock fan motor harness a little bit and put some some new tape on there.

Had a few weeks to get some work done! Added a new horn from my Tundra lol

Attachment 622133

Finished my oil lines and added some sheathing.

Finally found a spot for the oil cooler thermostat!

This picture gives no justice on how different the color is, or how a PITA it is to paint calipers yellow.

Attachment 622137

This is after five coats, notice the green-ish look where it is thin.

Attachment 622138

Not even close to the color of the car or the box color...

Attachment 622139

The color difference after they were put on, not quite the same. once I figure out the long term plan for my brakes I will powdercoat them, until then this will be ok.

Attachment 622140

I found this nifty kit at my local auto parts store for $10. going to use it for re-wiring my fuel pump!

Attachment 622141

Also spent the weekend at VIR for the UTCC! The wife and I had a blast and we met a lot of good people, just no rotary's the entire weekend.

Attachment 622142

Re-installed the main power wire that was running under the car, through to the inside. Much cleaner install, also need to install the power shut off and 150amp fuse at the battery.
