My project is on hold right now as I'm SUPER LAZY these days.. I'm also trying to clean out my garage so I can get a lift.

Thanks Phil.

Got some plates to take to the machine shop tomorrow to be modified for my xtreme rotaries stud kit and the UIM will have the required nipple welded on for the brake servo.

Craig's fabrication is super legit. Following him on IG, his own car is just as tidy!

matt724 05-24-13 04:40 AM

He's very good! His car is just as good in the metal as it is in pics!

I hope these pics are a bit better but please remember I have no camera or computer this thread is 100% iPhone!

Fixed the broken door mirror, turns out it wasn't the mirror but more a broken screw head so drilled it out and got lucky saving the thread and removing the drill! Many thanks to Swanny for not dropping the drill!

Anyway brake and clutch lines, yes I know I could hide them but if I'm honest you don't really see these against the white anyway and I have used the rubber over laid hose so not damaging the paint :)

All the clips are rivnuted and bolted for easy removal if needed.

It's the Zircotec Primary Black ceramic coating, meant to be good for 25% temp reduction. Currently it's sat on the coffe table!

All 4 fitted but only took 2 pics as I'm lazy!
As soon as my adjustable rod for my push pull converter shows up from OS Giken and my new clutch slave is here I can have the lads round to help get the box, PPF and prop in then drop it to the floor as I hope my calipers will be back from Big Red by then too!
Nickel plated then skimmed RS/RZ larger disks

The slightly nasty looking bits of coolent hose are there to stop any rubbing on the sharper edges of the shell.
Just got to get a right angle drill now to be able to put the filter relocation kit on the shell and then the oil system is done.
Finished up AST just needs powder coating now.
It's been modded to take the water temp sensor for the EWP and for my temp gauge.
Also had the nipple added for the small hoses at the bottom of the rad.
