Yeah always loved the look of the liquid filled pro comp gauges so just had to have them :)
Well have had a productive wee arvo in the garage.
Lots of little jobs to be done at the moment, so today managed to get the drivers side fire extinguisher mounted, and fabricate the driver and passenger floorplates.
Pics tell the story.
No more spending for awhile as cat has managed to get crook overnight, so $1500 later and he's still at the vets, albeit slightly better!
Might have enough money left for food this month, we'll see haha

Well havn't had much time for car stuff lately as been busy running half marathons, flying round for work meetings and spending time with my boy.
Did manage to get a quote for the bodywork i want done - $1800
Thats for quality work though by an old school guy who avoids bog like the plague which i guess is worth paying for.
So car is goin in to him next time im home.
I did get half the rollcage painted, and 2 of my semi slicks mounted though.
And suspension is nearly finished finally! And brake rotors are redrilled and mounted.

Well long time between updates as work and family life have been taking precedence over playing with my toy. Have got more motivated though and done a bit more recently.
Managed to score myself a Magnus Motorsport inlet manifold which is a beautiful piece of kit, not to mention alot lighter than my cut and shut factory manifold. Also bought a billet throttle body to suit.
Decided to go with a full wrap around drivers seat too for extra safety, so have sold one of my racetechs, and bought a Sparco Circuit 2 seat and matching rails. Extremely comfortable and safe seat.
Had the local drive shaft shop make me a custom driveshaft for my Mazda gearbox. Decided on new uni joints, gearbox yoke and shaft itself, and then had it all balanced up. Took a little longer than expected but for the cost and the job they did, was well worth it.
Spent the last week out in the shed for a few hrs a day when my boy was asleep, fabricating a gearbox crossmember for the mazda box. I used Avandulls design for ideas (as my mount is different) and made it up out of 6mm and 3mm steel plate. Am pretty pleased with how well it came out.
