With work like that , trust me there is a lot more than Passion going into this builld

what welder did you use here... coz that is shit load of welding you did~!!!
BTW: weld the front strut together with a plate for more strengh

[Booster]

Thermadyne tig 200 for aluminum
Co2 for the cage and seem welding

For sure I agree 100% with your suggestion
I still need to finish the strut brace. But it will be gusseted together with a 5 mm plate.
As well as still braced and bolted to the centre fire wall. 3 point mounting.
I'll get this complete next week.

Hey man nice to see you joined here from the driftworks site. Y don't you just do your original plan and do the twin turbo setup..

Hey dude, lekker man
Hows it going?

Before i go to all the trouble, (and time) i really wanna see how the car handles with the weight distribution as is.
If all is well, ill happily add the extra weight upfront,
PLus....im happy to learn the car and develope the skill required with the standard 300hp N/A. Once i know and have learnt some stuff. Ill have all the goddies to make some proper power.
For now. I just want the build to be done so i can drive it!

update from the weekend. FINALLY i got the car painted, Primed the inside and cage. Getting in and out of the car with the cage every 10 min to top up paint is a fucxxxing story and a half.

Sunday i started fitting the front brace, dash and steering column. Needed to cut the dash to fit it. its coming out again so i can start the wiring harness.







Dry sump tank mounted




remove the airbag cover to gain access for filling purposes

Make no mistake ....what these pics dont show is how many times ive done shit over becouse of a F up..
Everything ive done, has been thanks to stuff ive seen on build threads other guys are doing.

Also pressed the bearings in today for my hubs,
Finished tapping the threads.
How they fit together. This is the back side which bolts through the knuckle



I have changed the geometry slightly to avoid the use of a spacer, but still give me a wider stance,
