You have not mentioned how you have slave labour helping you out! (who i think is doing most of the work while you take pictures) :biglol:

And BTW what are you doing here? You should be getting the thing finished for this weekend! :rollsmile:

This car is seriously looking the part now man!

Epic work thusfar, the sunroof delete with that vent is a great idea, just find a way to blank it off for wet days, could be somewhat irritating having a mini hurricane in your face around the track while you trying to do some racing!
Car is looking superb man, nicely done! :thumbs:

hahahaha are you worried?
Yes I have clear video of you guiding me into a parking in reverse at Zwartkops like a car guard, waving your hands and all. Should I post it?......I forgot to tip you though. :biglol:

You had me very worried... thought you somehow got hold of some drifting i did with the M5 , or when i had a scooby and flooked some of them etc...

Here goes the update


So after spraying , we were busy with cabin and lightweight windows most of October. Had to manufacture almost everything from scratch.

We made the dash easy to remove, if we need quick access in the future and finished everything off with carbon fibre

Engine bay completed.

Had the tappet cover and airbox powder coated and bought new gaskets and re-assembled everything. Have also installed a full aluminium radiator with electric fan.

Did some re-wiring on the lights and electrical etc...

My father and i have poured many hours, moola and heart and soul into this car. We've really enjoyed it and are pretty much done.

Suspension has been ordered and should arrive next week.
Then its just the final bodykit , a good overall service, dyno tune and then it's playtime!

So badly wanted to race in the final 111 at Zwartkops this weekend, but that aint gonna happen.

Hopefully make the 29th Nov at the the Z.

For now , Firefly sleeps and awaits her suspension..
