Mate,

Youve had/have alot of cars most people only dream of! Its good to see them getting driven too! They all look awsome!

WRX's/STI's are some fun. I enjoyed the one I owned but the urge for a cosworth couldnt be beaten!

Cheers

Brett

I have done some more on this project, but I`m in no hurry

I have taken the rear suspension apart, looked over the uniballs, removed paint and got on a new paint and el zinked all bolts and nuts.
I like this gpa setup since its very easy to adjust toe in and camber by the uniballs.

Reinforced beam stripped and painted. It will be put under the car by aluminum bushings.

Refurbish fans, controlled by a 3 step switch inside the car and the sensor. Can run one or both fan after the demand for cooling.

This is how the car looked before I took of the rear suspention. I`m looking for some 18" motorsport wheels if any one know of some, please let me know.
I was supossed to buy new from compomotive, but they could not deliver at the moment. I saw 6 wheels on ebay, but unsure if he will send them to Norway for me?

Loving the pictures of both cars. The focus has a JAC exhaust, that's my mates company. It's a small world.
Keep up the great work

Awesome 3 door! Looks like a proper track tool!

For 18" Motorsport wheels you could also try Speedline.

I haven`t done much on my project lately, this is because I`m missing som parts.
I ordered a arb kit from MK motorsport, and the parts that I have recived is great.

BUT, I have also paid MK motorsport for some other parts to get my project up and running. I have tried to reach this guy by PM here, mail and phone. He answered me at first, but lately he have just neglected my pm`s. I have bought parts all over the world and I have never got a customer support who is so bad anywhere.

I sendt the money true paypal soon a year ago, it`s not a lot of money, but it`s still stealing to take others money and not supply the product, not even respond to the customer!

So I can not recomend MK motorsport, great product, but it dosen`t help when you not recive your items.

Now I will get the parts I need from someone else, to get on with my project.

I have got the car painted inside, this is the epoxy primer, the day after some black industry paint vent on.

At the moment I`m waiting for some bolts for the rear frame to arrive, and some droplinks and spacders for the arb before I`ll weld on the arb brackets at the rear, then I will start to assemble the car, I really look forward to that

I`m also in the progress of refurbishing the AP racing calipers, I will try to take some pictures for you later.
I have also done some small other jobbs like renovated the prop shaft, and brushed the alloy plates on the floor of the car.

I will also put on a oil-cooler system for the rear diff, does anyone have some parts for a set up like this, picturs, ideas etc. or a set up they want to sell to me?
