Hubs cleaned, blasted, and ready to paint..


And painted.. and ready to be put on the car.



Cleaned, sanded, and painted axles..

close up.


I also got my ID1000's. Bought them from Full Function Engineering. Awesome service and makes some cool stuff for rotaries! Thanks guys!!!




Also, got the eye bolts for the Takata Harnesses.. Can't wait to install them and go for a ride




And finally,

The engine... Oil pan on, Oil pan brace on, and mounted on my spare FD subframe.

 

Updates? this is my favorite thread! What is the grey paint are you using?

 

I'm currently putting the car together for SEMA and I can't upload all the stuff that's going on..

I'll make this short and share 2-3 pics.. including the render done by amazing artist and designer, Greg Thompson. He did an amazing job rendering the car with few pics I sent him and list of goodies I was going to put on. Just amazing work!! Since its so close to SEMA, I'll share the render to give you guys an idea what it will look like (exterior).



Hint of couple of parts..






I'll update the full car on my way to SEMA..

 

Absolutely beautiful man Greg's rendering looks amazing, cant wait to see the car in person.

 

That is one beautiful car Phil. Have a great time at SEMA.

 

Looks great! Makes me really wish I didn't have to cancel my planned trip out there!

 

Looking good Phil!! Can't wait to see car in person too.

 

gotta love a blast cabinet. makes old parts look nice and fresh again.

 

Just saw a shot of the Defi instrument cluster working on instagram. It looks badass! If I lived near by I'd be helping you wrench to make it to Sema. Good luck man!

 

Your new car is looking good Phil. Waiting for the full pics is like waiting to open a gift on freaking christmas....lol. Cant wait to see it fully.

 

Car looks absolutely sick in the render

 

As good as the rendering is, the car is even better looking

 

couple of preview of the pics.

 

^ Looks awesome; can't wait to see the whole car!

 

I wouldn't know what to do with an FD that I was worried about keeping clean or breaking things on! Haha.

 

That's part of the fun

More pics...


FEED Fender brace..


Loaded up!


Made it to SEMA!

 

Well that makes not having sema passes this year just that much more painful.
car looks amazing

 

Have fun out there

 

Awesome! Have a great time and good luck

 

Thanks Guys!! this was on my bucket list and now I can cross it off.

Since there is a picture of the whole car floating.. I'll post my own pic of it.

 

I don't know why buy my eyes were drawn to the cockpit area and my first thought was, "Where are the mirrors?" My second thought was, "Oh...duh."

 

Looks gorgeous Phil. Post some more pics!!

 

Can't wait to see more pictures - looks great! Good luck and have fun at SEMA.

Why did you go with the T1-Sport over the Proxes 1, R1Rs, or something a little more aggressive on the VS-XX?
