Here ya go... business is starting to pick up so we may have to make some compromises on the original ideas or put off showing the car till next year.. me i would rather compromise now and add to it with a revised version later..

Suicide...

The piece you circled will all be contoured and smoothed to match as no side glass will be put back in...

Rear window is still in tailgate... all windows are bonded in so its a case of feeding a wire through the bond and slicing through the bonding...

Fair comment....

Problem i'm up against is that i own a company that specialise in doing this... thus if i do just an off the shelf bodykit and stock interior then my company will be judged on that...
The car was always going to be an excercise in how far we could push ourselves, unfortunately some of the technical mods we want to do will mean it'll never be road legal...

Expect the next car we build to be fully road legal as this one will have proved its point... and showed what a great flexible car the gen 6 is...

At the minute we plan to fabricate everything so it should turn out pretty unique...

Anybody want anymore info on anything they see on the car just pm me and i'll be happy to tell you how to do it

Who does the best deal on air suspension kits for our cars?

Paul

Still no pics yet...

I can tell you that the car will have no air con, no heating system, no washer bottle or windscreen wipers, no sunroof, no side windows and possibly no steering wheel:)

Made a decision to build a car with no compromise which also means that it isn't gonna be able to pass our MOT test laws so she will be purely a show piece

Paul

Could people please PM me as then i can keep an easier track of who i've replied to or not...thanks

Paul

Tried to be really careful removing mine but they are bonded in and ended up just having the break them to remove them...

Probably a more easier and non destructive removal method

Paul

I have nearly full interior all parts for sale... taken out all interior including aircon/heater etc and also have some exterior parts for sale to...

PM me with what you need and i'll tell you if i got it

Paul

Well we have had a long hard look at the progress we have made so far and decided that we haven't gone far enough with the work... as a company we wanna push ourselves as far as we can...

So we are starting from scratch... watch this space

Thanks guys... to be hones this car was only mean't to be a quick bodykit and spray job then out on the road advertising my company.... its no so far gone past that i don't know where i am gonna end up going with it but i know i'm gonna have alot of original parts left over:)

Filler relocation is straight forward if you can live with losing boot space... just need to fab a smetal pipe that will go through the boot floor and then a rubber pipe to connect to tank...

Paul

Things have taken a turn towards the more interesting... sketchy exactly where i'm gonna go from here but i'll keep you all posted

This is all i got for you today...





...not very exciting i know.

Maybe making a controversial choice of wheels today but we'll see..

Paul

No problem the difficult part is trying to match up the rear tailgate cos the line from gutter runs into tailgate

Paul

Filler cap is just an off the shelf motorsport cap with a 90 degree bend pipe on other side and a custom fuel pipe is being fabricated that will then go through boot floor and connect to tank.... not a mod that alot of people are gonna do as you are left with no boot space but as we are filling the boot with audio anyway we weren't that concerned

Car cannot be completely stripped as we are having to work on it around paying customers and sometimes it has to live outside... however it will be totally stripped prior to paint... i want to build the car up so i can definately make sure i have the look right then it'll be stripped and prepped for paint...

...door kit was sold as autoloc but i don't think solenoids are... they are 45lb pull and do the job really well...

Paul

I imagine he would want to see it as i have seen alot of bodykits that 'fit with no modification' and when the bodyshop gets car and kit after quoting a price the kit looks like it was made for another model car:)

i'd get the kit together and go see them.. get your price.. then make your mind up

I am still trying to track down a TRD lip kit and sideskirts for it.... going to a full blown kit will lose the look i'm trying to achieve..

We did the same heater control relocate to a supra this time last year and i liked it so decided wanted it to...
