My Mugen DB8 R Build 15/05/2015 P11


Updates bro?

No updates yet bro weather not been good, in sha Allah soon, still go the rear lip to fit on yet all badges and decals are on

Only thing I've got are Wilwood superlights but having some issues with mounting bracket as it's not the right one, going to get returned back to customer and get the right ones now from Freakyparts (very helpful big thanks to Stewart) on the look out for Spoon calipers if there come up at the right price



 
great work, this is going to be beautiful when done!

looks so much better without the rear valances
 
Another update is here alot as been done since I've had it back from body shop, done a full re-bush with HardRace bushes was surprised how the old ones

Love it. First time seeing that K-tuned shifter, really like how it looks but not sure about how it would feels when actual changing gear.
 
Thanks guys

One of the best shifters out there mate, I've had Buddyclub and SK2 and Ktuned is the one to go for I would say it feels much better then OEM setup
 
Car was booked in at Grinspeed for alignment and check up, very pleased how's Steve as setted up, will be back in again for clutch and flywheel soon







Big thanks to Grinspeed and the team :nice:
 
How you finding the brake setup Shaz? This car is CLEAN. The colour coded gurney flap looks really smart. Where did you get the spats from?

Thanks bro, not really tried them tell you the truth, don't drive much it much since I've had it back from body shop, gurney flap really does go well glad I got it painted, rear spats where bought from States on the look out for optional side skirts for DB8 (custom made ones)
 
Another update in

Purchased clutch and flywheel fro Tegiwa

Exedy St1 clutch




Mfactory flywheel





ARP bolts and bearing



Finely got a mint passenger side 98spec head light now there both look the same :D




Mishimoto coolant bottle, still awaiting for power steering bottle





Light weight rear engine mount



Always wanted one of these managed to get one at a good price




Was having starting problems turned out it was my Solenoid on stater motor replaced with 98spec Denso one which is much better and more heavy duty then JDM 96spec one



Then I had problems with AC had a leak think it's my evaporator which is under dash was making some funny sound when AC was switched on, was shocked what was in there :shock:,






Final picture all waxed up



Thanks for looking
