Can't wait to see how the carbon door trims turn out. Should be much nicer than just flat sheet.

Awesome car anyways..  Pure automotive p0rn! 
Isn't it pretty hard to pull of heel 'n toe on that setup? If I'd had to twist my ankle that much it wouldn't make me smile. I don't even think it's possible?

If you were wondering the loud pedal has not been finished yet!
cheers
Have started on the brakes and will have the same size rotors front and rear,
And yes they fit in a 13" wheel with a 4 pot caliper

Are you running TRD recommended cam timing or do you plan to play with cams on the dyno?
Are you moving to EFI after the carbs are set up?
The new TRD N2 car runs different0EFI and lower duration cams.
296/10.6mm IIRC. Spotted it on a youtube clip.
May be of interest to you.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kf4LEb5ybHg
At 11:51 into the clip it shows the TRD N2 spec.
power: 220ps
rpm: 8800
cams: TRD special 296/296
weight: 854kg
Thought that might be of interest to you ;D

Hi there
I am planing to dyno the car and see what works the best , alot of factors need to be worked through , the engine I have was originally designed to run carbs , but I changed part way through my build and have decided to run EFI after the engine was built. Whether this is a good move or not will be known when I finally run the thing. I imagine a lot of time and expense is coming up to get the most out of the tuning.
From what I understand the early Atlantic cars ran carbs and had no rev limit, later on in the series the rules changed to injection with a 9500 rpm limit .
Cheers for the info

Hey mate, nice build, Im doing one myself (track car), but with a built blacktop (also running G4). With your windows, did you just go for a straight polycarb, or the M10 (I think thats what it is) stuff? I heard you cant form that approved gear so people usually go for the other that can.
Also, are you actually running the heater core through the motor or just using the parts for the blower ducting etc?

Hi there, yes I used Lexan MR10 , the MR stands for mark resistant , it is not form-able to a curve by any heat type process .the rear quater windows fit well, the passengers window does sit a little flat , the rear hatch window is held to shape nicely by the metal straps to stop it blowing out , and the drivers window is still glass so I can wind it up and down . The heater is fully functional with water passing through it .
Good luck with your build

Ah ok, the MR is the stuff to use, I wasnt sure how well it would fit the subtle curves of the rear window. Any reason why you didnt just use an electric demister ala kit car type products? Seems to be significantly lighter option etc.

The wiring is nearly complete now , all that is remaining on the electrical side is the ignition wiring, all lights,wipers,alternator wiring, and start circuits are complete,just need to make up one more main cable.It has been a bit of a challenge to rewire the thing completely when you don't really know what you are doing!!
Getting closer slowly !

Hi, I am very interested in your door panels - I don't suppose you would want to make a second set that I could purchase off you - they look amazing even in painted steel.
Cheers, Simon
