Thought I would gather all the pics of this in one place. Me and my mate Alex have owned this car for 3 years now, and managed 2 trackdays and 1 1/4 weekend thing.
Pretty shocking, so we decided to finish it and use it loads this year (i hope!). Its nearly finished now, having spent some time with PVE in Somerset having a cage in, and having work done when we can in the last couple months.
We are at Bedford on the second of feb so the heat is on to get it all finished by then, so we can use it as a kinda testday to make sure all is still ok.

We bought it off a mate of mine, he had already stripped it out to a degree, and lowered it on gmax shocks and springs. He also uprated the engine with 2ltr cams, and rs1800 bits.
The first thing we did in it was the Fordsport weekender and it looked like this (all we had done was start stripping more weight)






We scrapped the Gmax after that and fitted Konis fronts and Ford rears, also fitted Morrettes and bonnet pins, a rear strut brace and harnesses and swapped the xr2i seats for frst recaros. We fitted ST150 front brakes, OZ Alloys and a Momo Steering wheel. Also lost more weight.










After that is was ready for Silverstone



And its first proper trackday at Bedford in 2006











The latest (and final!) stage has been the rollcage, b&m short shift, perspex windows (yet to be fitted) and fitment of AVO coilovers. We are in the process of painting the inside of the car, fitting the last few bits and servicing it now, so its hopefully ready to go on the second! Of course this last stage has involved more weight loss, the door cards are gone, to be replaced with thin plastic, the windows are to be replaced with perspex and the electric windows are now removed to be replaced with manual winders. The sounddeadening has of course been stripped and the heater box and matrix have been removed. The dash if being replaced with a cut back lightweight version. The recaros have been replaced with a single Sparco Evo 2 sidemount seat, this mounts onto the cage via some bars added by Scort. The passenger side recaro can be bolted in for trackdays when a passenger is allowed, this will prob be replaced with a second bucket side in the future.






















Thanks for reading, this thread was mainly to get all these pics together! More will be added as the car is finished!
