UPDATE: So a fair bit has happened since the last update, touchwood it has been going relatively smoothly. With the window fitter turning up last week there was a real push to get anything I could out of the way, this was mainly body panels, I could of moved them into the house which would of...

Sorry mate, I totally forgot to reply. It is probably and hopefully sorted now. See one of my next updates.

That new cross member gives you so much more room. Nice work. Jealous of your ability to weld.... I need to get on that I think. I got my shell rolled over on mattresses in my garage (bit pikey) and then stripped it all back. I then had a thin layer of protection added again. Not as much weight...

I get it if it had a second purpose for sure... Just a thought and putting a finger in the air. You are pretty clued up on timing aren't you? I may pm you dependent on your answer... lol

Don't leave that there.... I don't agree, I think that is just as ugly.... and adds weight too

I do agree. They are pretty much double the price of the Ralloy ones and they look nice too. I am not even desperate for one as it will only be initially needed for mapping - i may not worry at the moment and then put it onmy “snag list” its not that ugly.... its bauhaus... Form follows...

That was basically what I was thinking but was just looking at other brands too - not sure it is really worth looking at others. The ralloy ones look quite good https://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/252957086755?ul_noapp=true Did you cushion the fitting at all or just hard-fit it to the turret?

Thank you mate. Its nice to be at this point, still a way to go yet though. yep, nice to have all that room to work with.... although need to pop a oil catch tank in there....

UPDATE: Had a good day on the car yesterday. When I was falling to sleep the night before I remembered that I hadn't painted the trim on the front windows, these needed to be done before friday so this was yesterdays first job. The amount of trim was measured, transfered to the windows and...

Interesting to sere what you do about a diffuser as also think of getting one. Got any ideas?

Kenlow ?

Updated image as I re-assembled this today...

Looks great mate. Good to stay on-top of things. All the best for racing this year.

Feel your pain with not having somewhere to work on your car. Glad you sorted it as I know how much hassle it can be.The brake bells look good and keen to see what you do with the fuel set-up. Good update mate.

UPDATE: This week should visually see some big steps. At the end of the week the window fitter is coming so there is a push to get things ready for that. I am going to hang the doors tomorrow probably but last night I fitted the superseal connectors to my new Ricky Evans heated windscreen, that...

This was made by someone who was contracting at RS Fabrications. The guy was called Michael Moyers. He now runs Alpha Performance Fabrications, you could speak to him and see... but I can tell you it was by no means cheap at all...

Nice design, really neat. Mine has a bit of flex currently so it may be something I address in phase 2, but I really need to get the car built and usable first.

It is indeed filtered where they split (for ease of service) and uses a standard filter size from a Hyundai Getz I think it is. I haven't tested (or have the ability to test) the venturi effect but simple physics suggests to me that it should be relative in this case I would have thought

Thank you for the kind words mate, good of you to say. Yeah I think I was probably wrong from the outset on the hinges but hadn't really become apparent until now when I am needing to hang them. Oh well, taking it as a learning... Glad I am on the right approach now. Glad we had the same idea...

Yeah a bit cheesed I handed over the money as I say... So I think the JCWeldfab name went with Jon (who was 1 director), and has left. I believe JCWeldfab as a building/location is still present now as Alpha Performance Fabrications being run by Michael (who was the other director). Not sure...
