iv had my 14 nearly 2 years started out as road/daily and bit o streeto started doing practice days ended up doin the driftfest masters which was alot of fun. The poor 14 was very rusty so cage be a waste in it so decided to run it into ground and reshell everythin else on the car was perfect

well started by getting car and shell to shed, darren coates is carryin out alot of the reshell work as i try to lend a hand as im no expert so we got the car in the shed and started gettin the engine and box out


also took the front subframe rack hubs etc out


new car will be alot lighter hopefully abs and other bits not needed will be left out.
goin using my english loom so all that has been removed gettin around the NATs is current mission also using my dash as the one in the shell is not the best.
remove the back subframe next lucky we have a good jack





car as it just hung out with no legs


when had the subframe fitted the tdp bushes and some polys


other shell was brought in and rear subframe irst to go on


currently car is rolling with rest of the bushes done and links ready for engine to sit back in but engine needs a freshing up with new belts vvt sprocket oils etc
