Had some productive hours in the garage today. Found some surace rust on the frame around the windshield so i sanded that down, put on some 2 comp filler, some mallard base and some clearcoat. Not visible after window and seals but like to have it proper done all the way



Also put the tailgate back on. Next week im going to get a new windshield and hopefully get some alcantara interior bits mounted.



Wired up the new crystal morrettes and some of the old wireing was rather dodgy. So got that sorted as well. Time consuming, but worth it i think.

Got Rick at Highgatehouse to make the OZ decals for 19" so now they are ready for order.

Spent a few patient hours removing the old stickers today.


Ready for gold



New innerwings


Ready for its new windshield. The old windshield is just taped in place for the short ride.


Also got a hard package in the mail today. Diffcover from Mk motorsport. Quality stuff. Well worth the wait.

[Arne]

Here are the pros in action. The company that changed the windshield are some of the nicest people i ever been in contact with. Great service and they invited me in so i could see the prosess from a-z. Very interesting.

Pros i aksjon.


Then it was a good wash before delivering the car to my painter. So on sunday i have the car back with shining carbon and newpainted OZ wheels. Performancetrim does not have the same, great finish that Creative carbon has.


Then today i got a great surprice in the mailbox. Only few days ago i sent many pictures and measurements over to highgatehouse in Uk so they could produce the decals in black and for 19" wheels for me. And today they landed in my mailbox. Thats insanely fast. Many Uk vendors could learn from this guy!!!!

Bilen din begynner å bli helt sinnsykt fin,it's smokin' hot

Lagde disse dekalene til 18" felgene til en kompis nå i vinter.

[Arne]

Long time since last update. Not too much going on.

But have got a new headliner and bought a few meters of alcantara. Also painted some of the plasticbits to fit with the black roof. A and B pillar also in alcantara.








Also got some new wipers. Looks much better with the more modern looking ones

[Arne]

Then the decals and tires are mounted. Didnt got it down on the ground yesterday because of some more work to be done when its on the stands, but im getting there soon. Also need a 75 mm socket to tighten the nuts.

Small chaos in the garage


Decals coming on




Getting there.

[Arne]

Its off the stands. But i cant drive it before i get a 75mm socket. Going to sort one out tomorrow. Adjusted it down 13mm also. Now i think the hight is perfect.

[COCHYN]

AWSOME!!!!!

[garrett]

stunning

[Arne]

Took some pictures in the sun today after having an oilchange. Silkolene pro 10/50.

[Arne]

Been modifying some more lately. Interior stuff and under the bonnet.

A friend of mine is welding AN fittings on all my tanks, rockercover, swirl pot etc and then its going crackle black. Or wrinckle finish as some say.


A f....... mess!!!


Not room for much bigger


Also modified the dash to fit a 7" screen and the geardisplay. Ready for flocking


When i was going to fit the cooler and rad i bumped into a minor problem. My car was originally fitted with aircon, so the crank pulley was made for two belts. So i ordered all the pullys from Mark at MK Motorsport anodized in black


Mounted the fans on the radiator and got some braided sleeve around the wires and changed the connector so it fits the loom


Bought 3 kilos of black 1mm flock nylon, pigment and glue. Gonna give it a go myself. Doesnt look very difficult.


Also got a big box of polish and detailing stuff from Uk. ONLY 13 pounds in shippingcost for the lot. So if its possible to ship that amount of goods to Norway for that money, ive obviously been screwed many times lol.


Ordered some Stack instruments from Mike as well. Stack ST8130P, Stack pro control afr and Stack pro control exhausttemp.

[fezzajsy]

looking very good

[Arne]

This sunday it was very wet and the humidity was high. High humidity is perfect for flocking. So i flocked the plastic bits around the steering and instruments. And the panel i modified for the screen and geardisplay.







Also got some more parts from Mark at MK Motorsport today so now i can fit my cooler and rad. Top quality as always Mark. Thank you. Looking forward to get the rest of the parts. But this was the most important one so i can weld the brackets for the cooler.
The OEM crank pully was to wide because of the extra belt of the aircon.

[andy escos]

love the wheels coming along nicely
