Evo 5 RS

Cheers Mr G! dont suppose you do pads for wilwoods?
Cheers danny! This is mainly a combination of You,Ghosty,beanie and foxys fault this happened!
Hoh yes! he is the only person i want wiring my car up! (new loom FTW!)
Cheers Luke!
No you dont and thats kinda the point! They way i see it the mk1 was like genesis to the modern RS Clio worthy of as much attention as any other! Especially as it was meant to be a track day hack... kinda gone abit over the top!
Not that im that bothered, but i kinda thought there would be more interest on here, although in all fairness its just another track car
Its so over the top as you say but it is awesome, gotta keep it forever now!

That top dash actually looks like it pretty much does away with the need for the lower dash actually, as its so much more self contained than my ph1 version:
Will see how you get on managing to fit the dash 2 into the ph2 dash first, but I think I might actually copy you and swap to the ph2 instead if I can then get away with just the top dash and not need the bottom dash at all as TBH its of pretty limited use in mine anyway as not like I have a radio in it, lol

tell me about it, id like to say i knew it would be like that...however it was sheer fluke!
Chip:
started making the center panel at work today, out of wood, then if it fits well will make it out of fiberglass/carbon fibre (never worked with carbon but will give it a bash if im feeling brave!) But that should give it a bit more support.
Thing is the dash does come forward a bit, so much, in fact, that if my center console was straight down every time i change gear id hit the console. So im going to hav to angle the lower part back.... hit or miss lol
Defo worth redoing it though, looks really good mate

Really?? it road worthy?
That looks massively better than I expected TBH, goes well having the yellow bits same as the cage etc, nice one
Scone, not got an MOT at the moment, but wouldnt take a lot to pass one, although would need a few jobs doing before it back how it used to be, but not sure if I will ever put it back on the road as dont really have a use for it anymore.

Just pipe dreaming as always wanted one. I'd have less use for it. Lol

So started the day early trial fitting new centre panel.
Fits OK needs more adjustment before I remake it out of fiberglass
.
Even though the dash isn’t fitted yet the dash fit is solid with new panel in!
Then we set about fitting rear aerocatches to the bonnet a job I’ve put off for ages…so towed the car to father in laws for electrics Lol
Fitted catches only to find that it then sat waaaaay too high on the car.
So we had to fabricate and rivit on some basic “L” brackets in order for the pins to sit a lot lower as the thread pitch stops below the top of the wing
This solved the problem! Yay! Also has made it a lot stronger!
Then set about mounting the new washer bottle in the cabin.

Tell me about it result huh!
My aim is to have her mechanically ready by then! I.e bodies fitted interior complete. Still lots to acquire yet!
But I'm determined for Beanie and Moo to rewire the car. Possibly one of the more expensive parts. So putting that off til last.
She'll be there though! I'll trailer it!
