STAINLESS again plz You've changed man.... Donating Members 8,142 Member For: 13y 10m 28d Gender: Male Location: 2 Fuchsia Court, Narre Warren. 3805 Posted 06/02/11 12:32 AM Author Share Posted 06/02/11 12:32 AM I measured with a laser from the back of chassis to the ground with the tub on then off then with tray and flooring on. It rose 35mm with tub off then dropped 25mm with tray and flooring on. So with the bars and the under carriage cladding it should come out pretty close. If needed I will put load assisting springs in at later stage. As for led tail lights, ive heard you just need to mount extra resistors for each light from a few places and smacxr8 mentioned something about they disable DSC? Will be gettin auto elec to wire them up anyway so all should be good. I want to keep the plug in option rather than hard wired. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welding it out as I write this. Then prep it for painting. 2 days to paint and dry, then fit it to the car again and fabricate the underneath then mount tail lights, indicators, reverse and numberplate lights. Then shes on the road :-) woot. Will just have to bend up the bars at later stage. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do have a deadline now as she is booked in at pitlane for tune next month, So in order for that to happen I will need all my parts installed rather than sitting in their boxes on the floor at my workshop.I cant do the exhaust untill the tray is finished so yer, best I get stuck back into it. Theres actually not a lot more for me to do. I have to send a sheet of stainless to laser cutters to cut out the under carraige part. Ive drawn it up in autoCAD and ready to gothen just have to retrofit the whole lot before prepping it for painting...Didnt go crazy with fotos last time I put it together but here is 1 just to prove im actually still doing this haha Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
