Coming together nicely :)

Thanks Snot. Nicely but seems very slowly.

It seems the more I get done the bigger the list of things to do becomes. "Sounds like somethink YODA would say"

 

Front bumper fitted and ready for paint.

You think yours is moving slow? Mines still on the rotisserie haha. This thing looks amazing I hope mine comes out half as good

Thanks Justin. We will get there in the end.

 

Took a photo of the scales. Havent corner weighted it yet.

I should be able to shift some of the 250kgs on the right front to the rear and improve the front/rear balance.

OK now it's official......you have 'all' the gear!

Great job, loving the updates and learning from you all the time.

Thanks Bret.

 

Made the rear bumper mounts and test fitted the rear bumper.

Wow, Wow and bloody Wow ! what else can I say other than I've got to agree with Bret " LOL" Craig :yes: as this just keeps getting better and better with every update :2thumbs: . I feel like I've become a Rollaclub addict :P jumping on every night just to look at any updates you have done and you haven't been letting us down :no2: and have you any idea as to when you think you might have it finished and will you be doing any events down in VIC as I would really like to see this thing in action :thumbsup: .Cheers:- Stuart :wave:

Hey Stuart, thanks again.

Hoping to have it done in a month or so. You know how these things go.

Even when its finished, then comes the paper work and dyno tuning and then a few small events to iron out the bugs and get the car and myself up to speed again.

Plan is a full 2015 2wd rally master series.

There are 2 events near the Vic boarder.Johns River and Mini Dula I think but they change from year to year. The first Rallymaster event we did was in Victoria near Daysbrough called the Seemore Stages. They might include it again. The forestry roads there were the best Ive ever driven.

 

Boot and rear bumper in primer.

Front Bumper mount painted and fitted.

Fitted the thermo fan. can't remember where I got it or what its off.

Years ago we used those crappy multi blade fans from Repsons and every time we had a hard landing the blades would break off.

Just not enough space in there for standard Commodore fan.

All coming together! When's the first race?

 

Also, no holes drilled in the fan blades? :P

Cheers Simon. The first event will be a shake down at a place called Hirstglen about 40min from Toowoomba. Then the first proper rally maybe Boarder Ranges if all goes well.

 

Holes in fan blades, now theres a thought. ;)

 

Got a coat of black on the bumpers.

Front and rear bumpers fitted.

ARP Head studs fitted and MLS head gasket arrived.

Head is back from the machine shop.
