    Did you have any clearance issues with the rear chassis x brace and the 9" diff yoke and have you set an exhaust up on yours yet

    I had no clearance issues at all!
    It all went in like a cok in a sock!
    The back half of the kit was modified for allowance of wheel tubs though.

    I have set up an exaust just realised there is no pics.
    I'll have to fix that.
    It's a single 2.5" stainless system (sponsored by Coopers)

    Thanks V8FISH,
    They are a copy of dragway nostalga,the coil overs are just a set i picked up on ebay and have no history of them other than they where on a mk1 escort race car.

    Well i drop the ball a bit but back into it again.electrics and interior are on the go at the moment,taking a bit longer than it should as i am deleting a few things and custom making other bits.the demister box is a mix of econovan air cleaner/barina fan and a few bits of scrap steel.all the dash and wiring is going to be replaced apart from the wiper motor,steering colum switches and lights.i'v added a few pics to give a bit more of an idea what's happening

    Would be able to do another one but at the rate things get done round here you might be waiting about 18 months.was easy to make,piece of 1.2 mm sheet and some exhaust pipe of cuts.did all of the wiring myself with a ez wiring kit,was quite easy after getting the wiring codes sorted for the indicator and ignition and was a bit time consuming.
    The only out sorced work so far has been diff conversion,exhaust,brake lines and paint only

    Did you do the wiring yourself? I'm thinking of having a bash at doing the wiring on my car myself with one on those painless wiring kits.
