So today I put the subframe back into the car and made it roll again - Awaiting my new Skyline discs/handbrake setup/lines arriving to finish this off.
Added some more strength to the inner of the wings.

And my new 3 piece lip arrived.

So then I decided to throw it all together and see what happens. Its duck taped together, its rough, its dirty, the photos are shit and its many different colours. However its starting to take shape into something cool.

So for the first Saturday night in ages I managed to stay in the garage and work on the car.
Had to get the insides of the doors/shuts prepped and painted, also painted the rear panel so the overfenders could be fitted and it wont look as gash when I rip one off.

Came out quite good considering I was only painting at 1:30am.
Have built the doors back up since then, just need to put the windows back in.
It will be away very soon to have the full thing painted, just a few more things to do before that.

Booked in for paint next month so had to pull the finger out and start fitting some things properly, rear fenders on. Fairly impressed with the fit from the Origin fenders compared to cheap ones, minimal sanding needed and we were pretty much ready to rivet straight on.

Bought myself a little present too... Holset HY35 with a 10cm rear housing, very impressive figures on a 1JZ.

Then got the internal wastegate welded shut.

And just a little blast from the past for shits and giggles.

Started fitting the front fenders this evening and should hopefully have them finished towards the end of the week.
