Car was due to go to the body shop Tuesday but due to a few personal things had to change that plan. So its pencilled in for 3 weeks time Tuesday. Will be having the side skirts repaired and painted. If time I will get the underside of the bonnet done too but think this may have to wait as we are short on time.

 

However instead Tuesday I will be definitely stripping the interior out.

 

Also need to check this earth out, battery is completely dead but it had be disconnected a while, now the earth is sorted I will have to take it on a drive to see if it will hold a charge, if not will check the earthing point is clean or maybe just stick another battery in.

Due to the godforsaken snow that decided to make an appearance last night, I don't fancy getting the car out the garage to strip the interior. So instead carried on with the sub install.

 

All fibreglass work is now done, also started the trimming and removed a few imperfections with the dremmel. The 12" sits in there nicely

 

However the weather is improving so may venture out in a bit

Well today was a very productive one, two big jobs nearly finished. Got the facelift carpet in and also nearly finished the Do-luck cage. Need to sort the mountings in the boot then all the back end can be bolted down.

 

Also while the carpet was up I fitted the Mines ECU, wasnt expecting a great deal but just took the car round the block, and I dont care what people say, there is a massive difference even with the car as-is, much more alive and ready to rev. Also the high red line is very nice too. Cant fully appreciate it yet as need to sort the exhaust out but that is all in hand.

 

Any way PICTURES :)

 

Found my JDM coin :cool:

Fantastic work Jake, looks like you've been busy!

 

How much did you pay for the ecu? Does it need mapping or anything or just plug and play?

 

Also the cage, where did you get that from?

 

Mines ecu's are just plug and play. Jake and Herb are the only other people I know who have them atm.

Thanks for the info regarding the fibreglass. Maybe another option.

 

As above the ecu is plug and play and coat 250. As far as I'm aware the mines and toms were the only ones made. And both very rare.

 

I got the cage from a member on here. Mines the Ali version and rather rare. I got a bargain.
