cheers, and by the way , you are ALL worthy, this is just a hell of alot work...

Well, things got clogged... a lot of my driveline parts got lost in transport, supposed to be in norway in end of may, and did not show up at all, so i lost my motivatation for working this summer on the car...as i would not see it run anyway.

Luckily the parts where sourced again, long story, but we found them in new york.

Coming some updates both here and in PFM during this autumn...

Thanks for showing such entusiasm and interest in the project!!

Joel =)

haha holy shit... im sure is used 2 chat to u on msn? do u no the bloke who used 2 own that black vsmotor mk2 escort? 600bhp mechanism?

might not b u but the car looks familiar...

Zzz...Zzz · 18-08-2008, 08:27 PM

A few old pics...
Here's the rear suspension , almost finished, quite a few mods on this one as well,comming from a 2004 mustang Cobra R, the "beam" now features solid mounts to the new rear frame of the car with no bushing,driveshafts are modded ones, bladed anti roll bars, made it ready for the adjustable tracktion controll system and there's also a steel brace around the rear housing of the 8.8" plated diff now, but... I made some more quite major mods to suspension when I found out I had extra time due to other parts missing...think you might gonna see that in PFM next month??

I'm not shure, but Lasse Nikolaisen who built that car, is a good friend of mine, it is him you're thinking about

Awesome dude, just freakin awesome.

Wow..now that is something to dream ´bout , the utah salt flats... but I think it´s gonna be way to costy to go there on my own budget with the car...
Would have been cool tough...!!

Crazy!

Fair play!

Zzz...Zzz · 20-08-2008, 07:51 AM

Did you see this picture, of the intercooler test fitted , i think it is a quite fancy part, and, as most other things on the car , it is totally custom fabricated :

Chip · 20-08-2008, 12:14 PM

Loving the way it blends into the bodywork, I can see aerodynamic touches like that being important on this car!

Bladed roll bars look awesome too

Keep up the good work

GTE 16v · 20-08-2008, 12:49 PM

Yes they are, but they're not 8 pots, but 6 pot monobloc brembo ones, and they are good enough for setup of the car. =)
