Nice choice on the seats,
I bought a second hand Suzuka pro gt As a passenger seat with the intention of getting a standard size for driver seat.
Hard to find second hand now so may have to go for new.

Very comfortable and love the high sides on them

Thats exactly why i went for them, ive got the normal size ones and im a skinny lad, these are very snug. I wont be moving about in these at all, i had sparco pro2's in my old car and they were way to big. Knew i had to find some tighter fitting seats for this one!
 
tidy work man ! ill be keeping an eye on this build! 2 questions is it hard to remove the front panel? and where did you get the J's wings ?

Thanks man!
Well i actually bought a complete new front panel and then just cut/buchered the old on off, haha
But its all just spot weld, a decent spot weld drill bit and youll be fine

I got them from 6TWO1, for a very good price, cheapest ive found them in the UK at the time!

Fair enough man, i would. Took me about 3 full day to get my front end somewhere close and its still not 100%
Thanks alot man and you!
 
Little update, received my custom hel braided brake lines that rob from Reidyracing sorted out for me.





Anodised blue, bulkhead pass throughs. Neater and tidier than drilling some holes :D



Anodised Front and rear T pieces



Will need to mock all these up before it goes to paint. Also need to order a brake light pressure switch and thats the braking system compete.
 
Trial fitted the front door lexans today, to work out how much I can cut out and save some weight.







How the bare door looks now, refitted to check.




Only half of what ive removed.



Few photos of it out in the daylight, its been awhile haha!








Im loving how aggressive the rear end is starting to look :D

Great build so far.. Lightening the shell really is one of the best mods you can do!
