looks like a great project. look foward to seeing it come along.
you gonna take it club racing?

cheers mate. going to be for drifting and the occasional 1/4 mile.

Good to see,
Cant wait to see the progress!

Lookin sweet. body will be tough with all those welds.. Are you fitting those rally flares

cheers to all. it will have an x pack kit fitted to it. I have got almost everything except the motor and the hardest part by far to find was the x pack kit.

Are they the forest arches? If so i got mine from Quicko they were only fibreglass.. I sold mine for $100 [V]

this is an x pack kit mate. (this is my donor car it has been t boned on the left)


also, had abit of a productive day today and got most of the front suspension in and sat the diff in place ready to bolt up the 4 link rods once the diff mounts are made. will hopefully be back off the hoist and on its wheels within the coming weeks.

Cool project ! will be good to watch it progress

abit of an update, the front suspension is all in consisting of group4 bilstein struts with short bilstein inserts, custom made coils as I couldn't get the right length and rating I was after, eccentric top mounts, adjustable lower control arms and green tie rod ends. also, we fitted the front brakes (big brake kit from e bay). there is now a 2.2 turn quick rack in with a rebuilt rack and finally today our half cut arrived. red top sr20det with 102000kms. so we will be getting stuck into the car over christmas. heres a few pics
