hehe true! 😂

ok so finishing off the fuel system.
Took out the system to complete the final assembly and tightening of piping and fittings.
From here on in it goes in for the final time.


Gave me a chance to weigh the unit, Tanks, fittings, lines and pumps, including frame - 8kg

Bottom

Everything locktighted and bolted in,

still some space for the groceries

Vey very nice!

Neat.

dam man this thing keeps getting better and better

ok I’m now at the point to get stuck into the wiring.
As the car has lost everything that is not essential to drifting. The wiring system is going to be basic. So i butchered the original fuse box.
This will be my distribution box and power in from supply.
But i obviously won’t use all the fuse channels.

took some time to figure out which relays are supplied power from where and which wires are output feeds etc.
But its all sorted and labeled now.

Made a polycarbonate plate for dash mount

Installed

This is gonna be a serious drift car. Looking real neat

Look really sweet man.. I won't try this.. Me and wires don't go so well

Yeah it is a bit of a task to figure out everything. The back of the fuse box is closed up,
Half of the terminals are injection molded closed by the plastic casing. If im honest. Alex my china helped me figure out the layout. He is pretty clued up and jacked with electronics.
Now just to start laying wires

the wheels in the final position, maybe make it a little lower still

Dylan from Kaihatsu Factory is hooking me up a set of 35mm bolt on spacers for the front. Once they in place i will upload pics.

right fellows
I hooked up a sweet pair of front spacers from Dylan at Kaihatsu Factory. Great quality. Great price. Excelant turn around time. Exactly acording to the spec i gave him. Very cool Dyl Shot!

The result is this offset

I also got onto some of the electrical. The motor used to be a off road racing motor, In a special BAT vehicle.
So the wiring harness and leads all needed a good clean.

Wrapped heat shield around each coil wire to prevent perishing and scuffing

Installed

Pretty neat lock

Marius at FTF (future tech fittings) arranged these fuel rails for me. Same guys that do the lines and fittings.

Managed to get the car on the ground

Nice! Need to bring the rears out now too!

for sure. Agreed. another 20mm i recon?

Would need to measure but I recon that looks about right form the pic

:domo:

this car keeps getting better and better..

cant wait for it to be joining us at the track

Hey dudes
So it's been 4 months since I posted updates. But have manged s fair bit. Besides graft and training for roof of Africa
What's been done
Dry sump pump fitted and oil lines plumbed
Wiring complete fuel pumps, relays, switches
Dictator 60-2 fitted
New solid Prop shaft fitted
Beaks installed and bled
Clutch lines installed and bled
Radiator and catch tank installed

Sounds simple enough
But have had plenty of stumbling blocks. Been working for about 30 days on getting the thing to start!
Firstly no spark. The ls1 runs a 24 tooth reluctor wheel. And the dictator I used runs 58

Guys who installed the dicktator system got that wrong.
As well as the firing order wrong... Turns out they got the cylinder pairing wrong too. Fun and games
After I discovered that and through the help of google. 😀 finally got it sorted out.
Also had to service all the injectors for standing so long the solenoids siezed
Serious Steve at Jms helped me sort out things. He is a dicktator genius!

So where I am now?
Car is running. Few more bits and bobs to do before can get on track
Dyno first.
