Received my new billet brake mounts and rear Brembo parking brake calipers from AndyP......cant thank him enough for making the parts and helping me out.
The parts are beautifully made and everything bolts right on. The only small issue I had was the rear inner brake pad barley hit the mount, which was corrected quickly with a grinder. The only thing left is to finish up the parking brake lines and bleed.

Exciting times for the build. Finally putting the pieces together to see how they fit. Installed header and turbo along with heat wrap, so far things fit, but tight. Lots of fabricating still to do for intake and down pipe. Plus I need to figure out the inter-cooler and oil cooler.

[Jaswan]

Yeah, I get what you mean.

Many thanks!!

Hi mate.

How did you secure the fuel lines to the floor? I'm guessing rivnuts but thought I'd ask

Jase

No, not rivnuts, which I thought about, but would stick up through the floor to much. I threw bolted and used two nuts. First nut to fix the bolt and then used the tube clamps and another nut to attach to the bolt. I covered the interior floor with Hush mat and you cant even tell that the there is a bolt head.

Big milestone today, I installed the engine and trans. The sub frame is a tubular frame made by Verkline and allows for the S2 suspension components, which I have 034 billet aluminum arms to use.

Installed the Hush Mat, which is one of my least favorite things to do......very time consuming. I was able to to get the front drivers/passenger firewall and floor done and able to install the fuse box and wire harness. The harness and fuse box are out of a coupe which uses the blade fuse instead of the old ceramic fuses. I will be using the digital dash out of the coupe as well. Norbert in Poland is building the engine harness and I will be using a Motec ECU

Finally received the sport hood form AP Motorsports out of Poland. Piter has been a pleasure to deal with and has supplied me with front fenders, front & rear bumpers, wheel flares, tall spoiler and the sport grill. All in all the parts are nice, but I am going to need a good fiberglass/body guy to blend everything. The fiberglass pieces would be fine for a rally race car, but I want a more refine look. Should be a nice looking car when done.

Nice work. Are you going to refit the original rubber grommet that the fuel pipes and diff vacuum lines went through into the boot area? Obviously it would need to be modified for the thicker lines

Great question and yes, I will be making a new rubber seal for the fuel lines / vacuum lines that pass through the boot. I have not found a stock rubber gasket and have ordered a few boots off Amazon (evil), but not happy with it. I will post what I come up with.

Wow. Vast improvement. Now, did you throw your old stuff in the bin? If not, could I buy your old rubber pipe from the pre pump filter to the pump and the lines from the pump to the fuel accumulator and the accumulator to the main filter? They look useable to me and are impossible to find here in the uk. I

Tractor Dave......check your PM

Finished up the rear fuel system. I made a aluminum plate, which has a Fluid Performance fuel pump along with Aeromotive 300 micron filter. I also added a fuel shutoff valve. In addition to the 300 micron filter, I am also running the Bosch 30 micron filter on opposite side. Made up supply & return S.S. braided fuel lines and plumbed from gas tank to hard lines. Everything is nice and tidy.
