since my car is missing the seat mounting rails like so.

i started to think how to overcome that the best way.

the rest of what is left there will be removed as best as possible.

i got some square tube and mounted it on the right side of the seat to raise it up level since the rollas floor is slanted.

 

then i will be making up mounting brackets off the ends of the rails with 4mm flat bar that can get bent to the shape of the corolla

with bolts then going down through the floor with flat bar backing plates so it doesnt rip through the floor with the nuts welded onto them

can anyone who has delt with scrutineering at event see a reason why it would pass or not

 

this is the only thing i have been able to come up with to fix the problem

ive finally found the ducktail wing i want.

onlything its 20cm to long so I'm gonna have to cut and fibre it back up but should look the good.

i leave for perth on friday so have some parts coming and should be here while I'm gone then when i get back

the old man and i are gonna finally hook in and get it together.

Damn thats freakin sweet! What transmission is that in there? If it's stock who makes adaptors? Also if that is the buick engine why not bolt on the supercharger setup?

All the mounts have to be custom made.

It's the Holden t5 box I believe

I have plans once we get this going and sort the suspension out to change to the supercharged engine or over to a vg30det

Which ever one come my way first

Hey look I have a wing.

 

Test fit before crashing out. Been sitting in a car for the past five days

 

 

 

 

Phone won't upload the pics.

Will do it in the morning

Scratch that it worked

Wing looks tuff man love it, what's it off ?

Gte Xu1 Torana. It's almost a perfect fit man. And there fairly cheap

few more pics of it pretty much fitted

could do with a bit of work on the ends to fit a bit better.

the only thing about this wing is that on either end it kicks out a bit giving the gap on the ends

you could fibre in those spaces I'm guessing or cut the shape out of the boot line to match and it would fit better but

thats more effort than i can be bothered with since its only a thrasher.

looks the good anyway and its a perfect fit lenght wise.

You might have to rethink that seat mount idea as it won't hold up too well strength wise,

maybe with thicker flat bar, closer bolt mounting and extended length under rail it might though...

The problem is bolting it or welding it to the rail isn't always easy unfortunately.
