Hope this is what u ment, if not let me know what u want to see..

pics don't do it justice, Its actually pretty tight, the Ultraracing strutbar is the lowest point.
I will fabricate a front splitter that will also protect the downpipe.
(will heatwrap the downpipe and use aviation grade highspeed tape or aluminium plate to protect the splitter)

also filled my greabox with some race spec oil:


can someone confirm it should be filled till spilled? So all the way till it starts to overflow?


Braided fuellines routed to the back..



around the fueltank


Shame my AN to hardline adapter doesn't fit in the space.. need to think of something else now..

fitted hood dampers.. makes life alot easier.
Know all the stories and I take good care opening and closing the bonnet.
Not sure about the hood spacers now, they make it a bit wobbly.




check my vid here..

Aerocatch fitted.. with extra support(1,5mm alu plate 20cmx20cm ) glued and tucked underneath.













today i fitted the lights and tried to create a strong quick release system for my front bumper.. its hard as the bumper is a bad fit.. but coul'dn't resist taking a pic of the view

mean lude

Wow, this is looking awesome!

[nucleustylzlude]

That looks amazing! Really mean as you say.

Thanks for the detailed pics on how you lined up and cut the bonnet, got the same catches to do on my new carbon bonnet - I'm scared!

So the bonnet lifters are livable with a c/f bonnet as long as your careful opening and closing? I don't have alot of options for a hood stand otherwise? Also you lost your OEM bonnet latch right? Looking at binning mine too.

Final Q - you Time Attacking yours?

[gb-lude]

You seen the traction bar pics yet i posted fot ya?

Ive got alot more pictures for the aerocatch install.
And some usefull tips.
Planning on making an HOW TO if I find the time. Just send me a PM if I'll forget ok!
best tip.. think and measure three times before you cut.. Got a load more do's and don'ts. So glad I took the time to do it as its all perfect! ( and BTW get the right tools.. that has helped me alot)

Hooddampers.. still a bit scared when I close the bonnet , the innitial closing movement puts a lot of strain on the hood.
Bus as you said, not much options.. maybe i'll remove 1 when its done..

Last but not least.. YES ofcourse I'm gonne TIME ATTACK the SH#t out of this thing! Thats what its build for

Nice build Dude

[NafemanNathan]

Jesus christ I've only just seen this! A man after my own heart!... With a turbo

It's threads like this that really make me feel like I'm neglecting my build

[Merlin]

Awesome stuff!! I'm going to nominate this car for Lude of the month


If we both Time Atack at least I wont be up against you, your turbo puts you in a different class (thank drokk for that )

[gb-lude]

I'm Dutch so won't participate in the UK TA.
Our Time attack works different, A bit lame but you have to stay in a certain time frame.
Lets say the SEMI-PRO-STREET you can't do a lap time under 2:10 on the track in Zandfoort.
If you do, you are disquallified and have to re-enter the class above with more strickt technical rules and If it happens half way the season you will go from the quickest to the slowest.
Final race of the season last sunday in zandfoort a guy running up to 2nd place in the Semi pro street ran a 2:09.778 and got disqualified losing his podium place

Its just for fun and If I get the chance I will visit the UK.
But with my job getting the weekends off to participate in the Dutch TA will be hard enough..

And Merlin,I'm honored but you haven't seen half of it yet, I would wait till my interior if done and the car is running!
A video of the car running will blow everyone away I hope



Thanx alot for all the comments..
