It seems the size of the Tremec3650 and the TKO housing is not as similar as the spec's say they are.. so with the real trans fitted , we did not get the angle of either the engine or the trans right...
Yep, up with the angle grinder again..... :S

This was not the dream stuff to fettle with now as the car is coming together...

The new "lid" getting there....





On the other side you can see the profile of the new centre console, wich will be made out of alu and carbon


Mixed updates.. :

The Dash is getting quite digital, the main 8" instrumet in centre talk to the engine management and other stff trough can-bus, and a 12.2" lcd to the right wich is connected to the cars on board computer, whom will have quite a few tasks on board... you'll see those later , the sound system will of course also be based around the computer as well.





Two channel wide band lamda instrument to the left in the picture,theese two corrected signals are also fed to the engine management, wich in turn also has it's separate wida band lambda sensors. 100% controll on lambda values has got a high priority after many years of engine tuning.



Looks pretty good for a 30 year old for

rear :



front :



details front :

Quite spacious for wheels/tyres at front as well



Fuel system soon complete.



Convenient to be able to let most of the front be able to come off...



Clutch and brake reservoairs in place and plumbed.




Not to happy about doing welding,priming,grinding and painting again...takes its toll on motivaton theese summer days.... :S
I would imagine it was a bit frustrating mate but look on the bright side of things, the car can't be too far off its first outing now can it.
