Still working on the car, albeit a bit slowly at the moment.
Now have the brake dog bones, machined from 6061 alloy.
Have bough and waiting delivery on a few things
Bought superlite GTR wheels. 15x7 p12 for the fronts and P26 for the rear.
Have all the sensors on order, should arrive next week.
Sensors are:
4x wheel speed
Front brake pressure
Fuel, oil, water, air pressure
Oil, water and air temp
Wideband o2
4x ignition coils.
Steering angle sensor for data logging.
Today i installed the ID1000 injectors.
Need to shim the fuel rail to get them to fit properly. They have a larger base below the lower oring that does not fit into the CA manifold. So i used a slightly larger oring on the bottom and spaced the fuel rail out using a washer.
Mounted the motec CDL3 dash and SLM.
Due to the location of one of my roll cage struts i had to mount the SLM under the CDL3, still all visible in the seating position.
I put the modified struts in to gauge the ride height for correct spring length, i will require 180mm long springs. Which should give me 4 inches of total front suspension travel. My calc tell my i should use 350 lbs front springs.
Photos below should represent the static ride height.
Working on painting the front valance, but it was raining today.
Once all the sensors arrive ill get the the wire 100m 20 awg tefzel and 100m 16 awg tefzel for the heavier draw gear.
Looking forward to getting the loom finished, it should be fun.
Finished modifying the radiator pipes, not pretty but should be ok.
I had both front hubs modified but found that there is a difference with some stanza hubs.
Some stanza hubs have the already 'counter sunk' disc holes further counter bored. This left one hub when modified with not enough thread left to mount the disc. Luckily i had another two at home, both of which are the preferable configuration, so just need to engage a machine shop to get one modified..
