Mongrel E30 Race Car

Recommended Posts

reasoning for using a four door? isnt that just extra weight? dont mean to sound like a d*ck the car looks bloody nice btw. was just wondering?

I got the shell for free. And it had an LSD and was SA with leather and shiz. Don't think it weighs much more than a coupe anyways now.

I am still 50/50 about the zebra stripes at the moment.

I have got to start the shadowlining. And also think the front looks like sh*t so will fix it up if I can be bothered.

Nath- I need something ET15 to clear my badass spring perches.

Looking good dude!

if you are planning on racing it then ... you might regret deleting the bump strips.

Hmm can't edit posts.

Anyways .

Sunroof in and urethaned up.

Door skins done. Had some faux carbon fibre lying around so wrapped them. They look gay will pull them off.

Made a slip mat on the driver side and a foot rest on passenger side, can't really see them.

Padding done.

Harnesses done.

Re55s got for $300 :)

Got bored so got the gun out and 2K'd the wheels. CBF masking but they came up mint.

Windows all done properly and ali bars put on rear windows.

Will send away the paper work this week and should hopefully have the sticker off by the 28th for the track day.

I will weigh it when I get the sticker off and can drive it to the tip. What should I be aiming for?

I weigh 67 kilos, so would aiming for around 1000 kg be a bit far?

It's pretty much done. Nothing really left to do apart from a really good spanner check, will probably take it into Glenn or Ernst and get them to double check everything. I don't trust myself.

And then comes hours of testing and adjusting :) Cant wait.
