can look at my Instagram for more up to date pics username bsmotorsport
photobucket sucks ass tbh, try upload them direct to passionford as its better.

Looking forward to seeing this progress, I remember seeing pics of this car before.

Not much of an update. The wings were removed to make the cage install easier and also they were a bit shitty where the bumper meets it and screws in. Front panel had been repaired previously again on bumper mounts. And the cross member at the bottom was a bit thin in places. Certainly didn't want to leave anything weak on the car so sourced some genuine replacements. Not cheap but not somewhere I wanted to cut corners on.



Then the essential items



Has 4 nozzles for engine bay and 2 for cabin. With electronic activation rather than mechanical (didn't want a physical cable to root through the car). Hopefully never find out how good/bad it is...

Then for the drive by wire we needed a throttle pedal. Made sense to stick with Tilton and they offer a full kit including the sensor. This should mate up with the pedal box nicely and the sensor is programmable via the infinity ECU.

Mental build and some proper gear going into it love all the custom touches for the bodywork and all the wheels you have, tough call on the colour for the centre locks though

well, work seems to have ground to a halt again. Got these through today though which should come in useful. Still to finalise what suspension Im ultimately going to use but these are a must whatever route.


Seems my quest to find someone to build a full loom has been fruitless so fast looking like I'll be doing it. So currently designing that and sourcing parts. Hopefully things will get going again and I can get it out to paint etc.
