New Tilton pedal set!

Apex-Apex · 06-28-2017, 07:24 PM

Wheels and fender mounted for test fit! Everything looks pretty good except the front needed some modifications.

Quick question about your carbon fiber roof
With all the parts you imported from Japan is there any reason you decided to go with a MPH roof as opposed to a Japanese company?

I actually don't have much Japanese parts but mainly use what I feel is the best out there. I know some Japanese parts have certain fitment issues and last thing I want to deal with is a roof with gaps.

Front end is mocked up so we get an idea of how much room we have for intercooler and radiator.

It'll end up being a blend of form and function but more towards form

I'm not sure tbh. The car was purchased in AZ from some guy that was racing it in SCCA or NASA.

It's been a while since I updated! A few parts came in such as my OCD Works billet valve cover, the Varis fog delete, and Hydraflow clamps. I haven't had much time to work on it since I was out of the country but I did finally get to mount my new wheels. Yokohama tires came thru to sponsor my car with some AD08R so I'm pretty excited to be working with them!

The parts:

Are you using OE crash bars, deleting, or aftermarket?

My front end will more than likely be tubed. Rear end will just be a fabricated piece. I don’t think OE crash bar fits for the varis bumper so you’ll need a Beat Rush one.

First time reading your build. Looks great man! Can't wait for more updates.
