[Russman]

Nope. Going in for full weld in cage on monday so it's stripped apart atm

[Roy]

Who is doing the cage? I am now unemployed so I have LOADS of time so would be stoked to throw time at the lil GTSt

Shame! I was looking forward to seeing it again in action

Bit more of an update. I'm working in Swan Hill for 10 days at a time so I've got limited time to work on the car. Still with help from my mate Matt Femino we're still making progress

Headlight moulds are coming along

My sexy Tein RS's have arrived as well. Happy that the spring rates are the same as my last set. Should have better bump and rebound adjustment now for a bit more fine tuning.

Thanks to Aaron from Import Monster with his help in getting these in from Japan.

I cleaned up the rest of the sound deadening and prepped it for the cage.

Loading up to go to Trackart to get the cage fitted.

I pick up the car this Friday so I'll be finishing the interior and cage painting.

I've still gotta replace the gearbox as the old one had synchro clips fall out of the drain hole when I did my last oil change. 4th gear synchro is no longer there lol.

Hopefully June 11th will be my next outing... lots to do!

11th June? Phillip Island. What are you are you doing with your REs?

Tampered day at winton.

RE's I'll be selling but only after the RS's have proven themselves.

Thanks Matt. I'll see you there mate

[N1GTR]

Whats the plan for the headlights?

[Russman]

Carbon fibre eventually when I figure out how to make it. For now maybe fibreglass

[N1GTR]

Oh cool!

[Russman]

I picked up the car last night. Cage is IN!
