Yeah dry ice is the go. But dont be a tight ass like me and not buy enough as it makes it harder!!

I used dry ice in bags to do the upright panels, worked a treat. Then used thinners to get rid of the little bits that was left

Update,

Roll cage in, perfect fit and fantastic workmanship. Genuine harness in. Currently on its way down to Melbourne on the back of a truck as ive just moved.

Couple of photos too!

Next, give the car a confirmatory run at the drags, then looks like my first event will be the Matrusi at Winton in Feb. Looking forward to getting the car out there and enjoying it.

Well been a while since ive updated this.

Winton Matsuri didnt go well, kept blowing off intercooler piping all weekend. Got about 5 half laps in.... For those 5 half laps I was alive......

Have to admit there were no problems other than the cooler piping blowing off.

Was fairly pissed off for most of the weekend so not many pics

    • Unless you're fortunate enough to buy a newer car, getting an older style plate to match your name/car is difficult because they've already been purchased.  Unlike other countries, personalised plates are locked to the country and not region, so there can't be multiple versions of the same plate but with a different area code.  Hope that helps
    • People use the numbers to make it look like letters to spell words/names, which is where the illegal spacing comes in. For example this GR Yaris  
    • Today's rock removal from my stock pile out the back into a 4m³ skip bin, I still have a bit to go, hopefully there's enough room in the skip bin, it will be close My daughter and her boy was coming on Sunday to help, but, I got possessed by demons and started work as soon as the bin arrived at 1230 today Lots and lots of barrow loads were achieved  Currently I'm sitting on the lounge drinking beer thinking of how I should have waited till Sunday for some help, tomorrow will be a day off, in saying this, my day off will involve prep and paint of my alloy coolant and PS tanks with wrinkle paint (Jackie is in Sydney till Sunday so the home oven will get a run curing the paint....LOL)
    • That's why I said it is a meaningless term. Because there is more than one meaning that people can apply to it. When we said "highflow", that is exactly what we mean, and exactly what is done. In a highflow, they take your housing and machine them out to take bigger wheels, have a better internal profile, etc etc, and fit a new core with the different/better/bigger wheels.
    • Oh sry i do not know if i used the term right. What i meant is upgrade the internals and keep the housing. That is not "hybrid"?
