hehe, thanks man,
your cars look pretty impresive too, and fun for shure :P

oks, as promised hehe, more pics, slowly as usual.....

fixed one of the arches (you can tell im not a panel beater) bit of filler and will look like new (and kilos of waxoil inside so this doesnt happen again!!!!
just see, how rusty it was, .....was told it had alittle buble of rust coming through , ends up it was already horribly rusted, and without treating the rust or anything the just put filler over it........brilliant work ¬¬

cut off all the extra metal i dont like :P, as i need space , as ive re-engineered the suspension points (well me and a friend , ex prodrive engineer) and some of the subframe arms are maybe going on the chasi rail, have to put frame on first (will do that later)

also tested the eh.......under gravel paint whatever you call it. pretty light stuff, and thin, not like the stock stuff, i swept the floor the other day, and just over 5 kilos of crap........

more pics wednesday, dont have pics here but welded long T al down the ..seals...where you jack the car, so now, jaking werever i want, whenever i want heheh, no more bending. also welding a few 10mm bosses on the chasis rails to make some bracing, sort of like the nismo stuff.

Perfect Simon, thanks

hpt_simon · 28th February 2010, 05:52 PM

wel, little more work,
finished the side , T´s and cleaning up rusty bits, and undersealed half the car now.

waiting for some sheet metal, so i can modify the subframe and pickup points on the chasi.

hpt_simon · 21st March 2010, 10:17 PM

few more updates.

stich welded roof.

waiting for a friend to lend me his spot welder to do all the door and window seals.

cutting up the front top multilink braket part thingy, hopefully this will give me enough space to moove the arm pick up around 30mm+ upwards, and another -10mm on the arm on the upright. then will modify the subrame to mount the arm a few cm´s highter and further out too

(hopefully getting my roll centers correct, for low down action :P .

ps: green turns black once it cures :P

Cris · 23rd March 2010, 09:47 AM

hpt_simon · 27th March 2010, 01:35 PM
