dash looks class frank who flocked it???wats ur hydro setup by the way????

[Greg]

The dash is damn cool. Fair play.

[Frankae86]

The dash is done by a local guy "shamrock rally spares" He does a lot of rally stuff. Cost 130euro for the dash and clocks surround.
I cut the dash and shaped a centre console in cardboard then gave it to my uncle who made it alumin and i wanted a centre that i could bolt off to get at wiring

Way2fast : The hydro that was in the car was bolted to the tunnel very weakly and way in the way of your knee and pointing at the wrong angle
So i sat in the car and marked exactly where i wanted itand made up a STRONG bracket.
The cylinder is back near the end of the tunnel and ill have a bar of some sort linking the lever to the cylinder. will take a bit of setting up but nothing major.

Im happy out with the job Dave did on the dash alright, id definatley reccomend him and he said people send him stuff by courier all the time.

Cooldrft on here made me a few fittings during the week that were missing out of the box when i bought s.hand DW lower arms
So cheers james..
He's also making up fuel filters for me.

ah cool i thought it looked like it was gona be that kinda set up...i was thinkin of doin somethin similiar myself havin the lever up beside the wheel but the cylinder further back

[Frankae86]

Should be a good job lad, i hope to find out soon how it works
It was a cunt before mounted down low and the bracket moving before you even pull the handbrake!
And it was held with good old gutter bolts, ah you've gotta love the irish

[way2fastforu]

haha cant beat the old gutter boltsas long as u use a good solid bar between the lever an the cylinder should work very good!!im gona weld 3mm plate onto the tunnel to support mine should be good an strong wit no flex then jus have to decide to stick wit my current set up or somethin similiar to yours

Yeah i found out after i need a firewall, i was talkin to Alan sinnott about it
The handiest thing to do is "box off" the Whole fuel system.
It will be one of the last jobs ill be doing.

Wont be reving my engine that high lad

Speaking of Alan id like to thank him, Colm and Gem for the great advice ive been getting throughout the build

Also Bart and Yowdy at Just Jap for most of the parts going into the car at good prices, keep up the good work boys
