Thanx man.. I had a cheap fiberglass wing before but this looks better and probably is. good thing about it is that I can get higher "legs" for it and see what works best.

but with the sleak line of the lude this looks the quite good. Will make a better picture soon,

I was going to go custom on the brackets and fix to the back face of the boot and allow loads of adjustment up, down and tilt, a bit like the Rocket Bunny BRZ one...

Ahhhhhh I love that game :D lol

That sucks about the AEM Wideband. I didn't realise that, I thought it could be used with whatever decent brand of engine management :?

Sorry, no experience with Tunerview II :(

Spend some serious hours working on my car..
Not gonna bore you with talk and pics about wiring ..

Friend of mine helped spray my doors.. Takes alot of time prepping and spraying thin layers.
Previous owner pained the doors white with a roller and they had some damage.

Image
Image

All my fluids are in. Running in oil, normal oil and waterless coolant.

Image

Had to cut the midsection out as I screwed up... good thing too as the aluminium was a bit thin anyway.

Image

When I cut all the holes and test fitted everything I sprayed the whole midconsole in 6 layers of plastidip.

Most of the wiring is prepped. still have a few things to sort.
Also found out my mini heater is crap so will have to febricate something else.
Think I will go Merlins way ( think he had the blower and big hose connected to the fan ducts for the windshield.

Well here it is:

The red guarded toggle switch is going to switch between high and low boost. 8-)
The switch below is a switch between narrow and wideband O2 sensor.

Till next time!

Next.... did a 9 hous session today.. sometimes I feel like i'm going backwards and only adding things to the list.

I installed a watertemp sensor, found a great spot for it. did not want to buy a radiator hose adapter and cut my SS braided hose.. Origionally wanted to fit the sensor in the radiator somewere but this is even better..

Image
Image
Image
Image

Also drilled a hole in my very expensive ramhorn manifold.. took a while as most of my drill bits just burned up... damn that thing is hard.. The nut for the EGT sensor is going to be welden by my friend as its SS on SS.

Image

Scrapped my crappy heater/blower... the inline blower works very well!
Not fidling around with the details anymore. what you can't see doesn't have to be pretty..
lets get it done!!

Image
Image
Image

Pull cable for killswitch is amost done. will finish it tomorrow.
more pic soon!
