This is an awesome project! Happy crying!
 
What a job on the cage.. Excellent!!, what size and offset are the wheels??

Looking very track focused now :nice:

15x8 et35 :) they're wiiiiide. If I dont feel much benefit from the extra width they'll be going though, as the weight difference compared to my te37 setup is crazy!
 
I've also been debating going back to 195s.
 
Wow that cage that car an then the finished product is function but yet it still looks like a magazine feature :drool::nerv: so much #win :bow:

What a woman fair play to ya :))
 
Sat at work on a bank holiday bored so thought I'd chuck some pictures up :)

Not much has changed really, I spent 8 weeks trying to get it running - turned out my ECU had lost my map and my battery needed a lil boost.

Started putting my interior back together too

At this point decided I would need to make my own dash as my seat is now further back to keep my head away from the door bar and I wouldn't be able to reach the standard dash anymore.
mocked up some nice engineering drawings (only useful thing ive taken from uni so far) and gave them to a local sheet metal company who made me this

Also made some doorcards up out of ABS plastic stuff.

Started putting it together - using standard window switches, hazards and demister.

went for failed mapping at TDI with Steve and his teg. Frustratingly, my ECU is STILL broken! I haven't got boost outputs working despite this being a new ecu :( Tdi couldn't do anything with it, and everytime they plugged into it it lost my map again. absolutely gutted to be going back for a second time and having no more boost than stock wastegate pressure :angry2::please:

We're both driving it at Spa :D and tbf, he drives it ten times better than me :alone:so I probably will just let him drive the Ring and close my eyes haha
 
Instant sub 8 with full power I recon!
 
Bloody hell Nicole. ! You've built a weapon lol
 
Sack hondata Nicole. I don't know anyone successfully running the boost control hardware with s300. To be fair thats only 4 people, me and you being two of them but seems to be problematic.

Catch can looks f*cking awesome!
 
Love this car! But them being so rare where I'm. I could never bring myself to do this to one lol. Won't lie your car is my background picture on my laptop.
 
What a thing of beauty! Very nice work in the shop and at the track :nice:
