Finished up paint in the interior. Also cleaned up the wiring inside the car. Next stop install the motor.

This build is unreal! We get to see a bone stock evo turned little by little into a track beast. Love it. Kidloco51, thanks for showing us how it's done! Any plans on a 1.5 way rear diff mod?

No plans of yet. I don't have any understeering/ roatation issues as of now. Car is crazy neutral.

Dash is in (see pics) No clue as to weight yet. I will put it on scales to re-corner balance as soon as car is finished.


With the help from my dad tonight I got the dash in/mounted. It turned out kick ***. Only 4 screws hold the top part on (easy to pull of and access wire etc in minimal time).
I got most of the electronics hooked up as well. Interior is about 90% done I need to mount fire bottle and a few odds and ends.

Mini update: Well I ordered up some new replacement pistons for the Brembos from Girodisc (my old ones were trashed). I really wanted to ****** up the Essex AP racing kit but money wont allow at the moment. So the Brembos will have fresh pistons and seals. I also called up Carbotech for a fresh set of XP20's up front. I am currently running XP-12's I am anxious to try the new compound.
