Been a bit quiet for a while but the parts keep arriving for the race engine. 
 
Race clutch to suit the Celica box and 4.4 kg steel flywheel.

Yes, should do the job.  I just need a ring gear for it.  Anyone got one they want to sell?

So, I bought a new seat and it's awesome.  The lateral leg support has made a massive difference.  Only thing is being 6'4 I found it very hard getting out of the car.
 
So I bought a removable steering hub and problem solved.  It's awesome and no drams at all getting out now.  It's only 90mm in length so the steering wheel position has actually moved further away from me which it great.

Got it from this guy - http://www.turbosport.co.uk/showthread.php?t=134561&page=15&highlight=M11RF
 
It has made a massive difference.  I just need to put a hook somewhere for the steering wheel.
 
Cheers
 
Matt

Soo not much been happening with the car for a while.  It's pretty much all finished bar the race engine that's still being built.
 
I've never been that happy with the state of the paint etc so as I just turned 40 I decided to build the car I've always wanted.
 
So I've now bought a 2door MK2 and I'l be building a Group 2 Zakspeed Replica. I've just ordered this body kit - 
 

 
And when it's all said and done I'll end up with this inc the same livery etc...
 

 
The plan is to use my current running gear in the new one and then sell the current car.  If anyone is keen to make an offer on the current car as it sits now complete I am happy to hear from you. 
 
I'll start a new thread once I pick up the new shell.
 
Cheers
 
Matt

Sounds like fun, nice to be at the stage of your life when you can build your ultimate beast. Does this mean you may be without a car for a while? how will you cope? I'll be interested to see the new thread when it comes up.
Cheers Drew...
