Ian.G's Track/Drift Levin.
Just a small amount of work yesterday.
new tension control arms now installed. Bolts are just nipped up as I'll need to sort out the geometry at some point. They seem very nicely made. Will have to play little with the track width too as there are only really 2 places you can install the ARB drop links. I got the old wire brush on my drop links and cups today and they have come up a treat. One of them needed a bit of tap with the hammer as it was slightly bent. Not perfect but they will do for now. New superflex bushes waiting too. The ones I took out were TRD - they were toally mullered. and installed... I really needs some geometry work now as the front wheels are pointing all over the place now its back on the ground LOL. Regards Ian. |

Cheers man.
car goes away to be worked upon next week so I've just been doing a few little jobs before she goes. repainted all the steering column carrier and re-installed along with pedal box dashboard/crash pad now back on as this needs to be available to the fabricators whilst the make the cage. It will probably have to be chopped/trimmed a little so the front legs of the cage can stay as close to the a pillar as possible. Seats are back in on their new superlow frames to aid with b-pillar dimensions - I need my seat a long way back LOL. New rear equal length 4 link kt arrived earlier this week. lovely quality parts as alway from Nagisa Auto. Weld-in box sections And the nicely made rosejointed arms. The box sections will sit roughly here in the shell. also got me a set of front braces from Sweeps on Driftworks... do the same job as the UeoStyle/Nagisa ones for a fraction of the price cant wait to get the car onto the next stage of its journey - more photographs to follow next week. Regards Ian. |

Shell sent away to be worked upon.
new roof skin from brother betty. Just had some photographs through from RS Fabrications :worthy: My car is taking shape. Cross Member Roof skin (which had a sun roof - the carrier alone weighed lots) off - and new one ready - for when the cage is completed and can be welded back on. The engine is now on mock mounts back in the engine bay. I ran out of space on my mail account so I am still waiting the closer view on these LOL. Regards Ian. |

More photos from the guys over at RS Fabrications.
The engine and gearbox are now mounted in the shell Stock s2000 engine mount brackets used with custom hard mounting bushes. Hopefully the engine wont move a bit - my old 4AGE and gearbox were on solid mounts and it feels MUCH better. nice clean job. Really loving Russell and Shanes work :worthy: cant wait to see the rollcage Regards Ian. |
