i liked the first wheels like in your signature,
the wheels need to be something different, not the normal compomotives etc. most people fit on here as the car isn't normal.
the dish of the originals worked well with the big arches.

Twins: I know how those look but I found 17" OZs in Romania and I'm going for them on Sunday. It will be about 600km trip for them and next 600km back home but I want them.

Fraser: I like Keskin KT1 wheels too but It weights more then OZs and It's stupid to have 235mm wide tyres on rear on FWD car. My mate will use them for his V6 cosworth powered Capri.

17" OZ Rally mags.. Now It looks better I think.

If that had factory OE lights all round it would be outstanding! Still, nice as it is! Would just prefer the original lights.

neverending story with my brake setup



and Im thinking about putting original lights back but... like Twins has white andicators all around or used dark lights like his track car and dark front indicators and put the headlights in black? remove the glass and paint the metal around the parabolas in black?

I would like to paint the wheels in some dark color like carbon dark grey and white for the car? What do you think about the lights?

I think ALFA ROMEO 33 or Peugeot 405 MI16 rear lights would be a better fit than those e30 ones.
Couldn't find any better ones..

Hi folks.. I'm still working on the car but It goes really slowly. Last project was my own short shifting system so I spent some hours in garage by measuring of original system and inventing of rebuilding of it.
The reason is:


After it I had made all of parts. Housing of shifter printed from ABS plastic, black zinc coated stick shift and rod, polished alloy gear knob..




And here is the complete shifter:

Ye we need updates on this thread.

mariS

Sorry for the delay. I have a lot of work with my son but the car is still living.
Few small upgrades are done but nothing major.
I changed the seats:

Get the Weichers roll cage but it needs some modifications and I have fit it inside:

Slightly changed front bumper, it still needs to finish:

Fitted aerocatches:

Fitted smoked tail lights:

Fronts will be changed by these:





The glass will be sanded to clear in front of the bulb like Golf II Rally headlights.

Great work maris. Lights will be much better. Best thread I've seen on here. Hope you get it finished.

You have rare talent, and a bucket full of patience and I really admire you, don't neglect your beautiful woman though.

Thanks guys for really nice comments. I'm still working on it but I have less and less time. I reconstructed my son's room, I'm buying a new daily car what needs some changes and repairs too and still help some friends and family with something.

I just paint the wheels black with new stickers and slick tyres.


Slightly modified roll cage. I made new connection points like Cusco has on their cages.



And plan for this year is finishing the headlights, painting the roll cage and making a new wide arches. I don't think that I can catch more.
