Cheers dude...

My two projects up in Gripfab, its known as Kruizer's Korner at this stage LoL


As you can see the wiring now goes on the outside of the front panel, sounds simple but is far from it, you can also see the subframe and how it holds the engine :


Manifold :


A nice look at the HKS clutch :


Car should be back in Limerick next week with some luck.

So not a whole pile to update since my last post, have had a few issues with the wiring and the previous cowboy that worked on the engine but nothing Gripfab can't handle, should be ready for transport back to Limerick very soon

John got to make up this interesting section for the exhaust cross over :


And Dave in JDM Distro sent me on a few pic's of my wheels now that they are ready to leave Japan, will be 8 weeks before they arrive but I'm sure I'll be able to keep myself busy until then with the other cars, anyway enough talk pics :


Until next time....

15j -7..... Dear lord.

15j -7..... Dear lord.

I wouldn't mind but 2 weeks after I bought theses they released a 16JJ version for hyper cars but it has the same dish as the 15JJ so not to upset LoL

Right so after a very long time away, the beast is home, arrived late last night, needs a few niggle little bits done before I can get it mapped but nothing major. For the next few months it will be all bodywork and getting this beast looking as phat as possible, even Romeo came out to have a look, trying to find in the two of the pic's is like a game of where's wally

[Kruizer]

So I wanted to know how wide it was cause I have forgotten and this was the out come, not too bad. Thinking of keeping the standard bumper with a big ass diffuser.


Wing is pretty low to the ground. Just a measuring tape on its side.



Engine looks at home


Oh and its first start up, I think ya need headphones cause it sounds off through my laptop speakers.

So back to fibreglass, as said much earlier the fit is shocking however with a few bolts here and a heat gun burning the arse out of the kit it started to come right if only the wings it was a step forward.




Only took 2 hours to get the wings to fit but looks alot better.



I have to do some trimming around the lights, adjust the hinges for the bonnet, move the power steering fluid bottle and the gaps should be some bit better. Screwed on the quarters too but again they need alot of work, be a while before its all sorted...
