Today's check list was pretty good!

Fuel systems:

Positive and negative, drilled a hole and threaded them through

Wired it up to the fuel pump, connected all the fuel lines, tightend it all down, and done!

Yeah fuel system done, CHECK!


Finally got the rear brake line, flared the hard lines, and wired it up, front and rear brakes are done!!!

Got the Recaro seats in, driverside bracket is done, drilled and bolted down!! SEATS DONE

Privacy hatch latches, since i keep having to get to the battery, i hat the privacy hatch string bolted down, and it was in the way and a pain, so I made some easy latches to take the privacy hatch on and off with ease.


all done

started working on the exhaust, to test fit and figure out how to avoid the steering linkage


cut pipe


it got late so i could grind anything smooth or i would piss off my neighbors, so the cuts dont look too great. but they will be fixed


Cut the reducer for the flange

Test fit

Still need to finish:


Digital Dash


Driveshaft


Exhaust

Me too!!!


Started to make a custom radiator support mount, so it will actually be supported since this one does not.



Got a piece of steel, measured it out



Drill it



Radiator has 2 12inch fans, hope the flow enough


got mounts with a few washers, and nuts and bolts, just going to drill a larger hole that fits the radiator, use some bushing and the cooling system is all done.


ARP extended wheel studs came in


started labeling all the wires on the back of the digital dash, what a pain, but at least its strait forward thanks to these links.

Monday I am calling a few driveshaft shops to see if they can make me one that will fit the MA47 rearend and the SR20 transmission


Finished up wiring the LED USDM lights, they are for sale now, since I will do the same thing, but maybe a little different with the redlines
