It's ALIVE.... It's ALIVE...... laugh.gif woohoo, drove the beast last night.... just 20 metres or so but hey! still very exciting! And i must say it sounded AWESOME!!!! Eu4ria can vouch for that, by far one of the best sounding sixes i have ever heard..... but i'm pretty biased!

Should all be ready for sunday, so i can take her home and do some last minute tinkering! thumbup.gif

Ok.... an update....

Everything is nearly done.... as usual! lol

Had a few dramas with my K&N filters, not musch room in the engine bay... so to save me taking to the bay with an angle grinder i have just fitted some smaller paper filters so that it is driveable!!!! i will probably look at using the velocity stacks i have with some sock filters and keep the K&Ns for a rainy day...

The car is at the engineers at the mo. and i will get it back next week, basically just getting some new seat brackets made, so that i'm not banging my head on the roll cage... a couple of small welding jobs and making sure my seatbelt mounts are legal. So next week it's off to the pits and see what MVR have to say.. fingers crossed i won't have to modify to much to get my roadworthy!

That's about it.. the car has done about 20km now and still running, so that's good news biggrin.gif

picture as of last week...

lol my mummy insisted i have a cage for extra safety... she's very over protective!!! icon4.gif

1. yeah i'll probably race it at some track days.
2. For asthetic reasons
3. It's there if ever i need it
4. i don't trust my own driving
5. It was planned/budgeted for in the project
6. It looks good (IMO)
7. I don't have to have back seats
8. Gives me something else to polish
9. It's a talking point
10. WHY NOT!

*lol* fair enough mate I was just wondering thats all. I actually heard from a friends who investigates crashes for the RACV that roll cages in an accident actually cause more damage than they provide protection in most instances. smile.gif but hey uve given me plenty of reasons and it all sounds good to me.

THanks
