Ferrari V12 or any NA V8 F1 sound.

 

New clutch components arrived
Used cover and aluminium flywheel
New pressure plate, spacer, and race discs

 

Transfer-Case
Decided to have it rebuilt while it was out of the car.

Front diff was broken, photo courtesy of Shepherd Transmission. They've already completed a Stage I rebuild and installed a new Wavetrac LSD. Quite a speedy turn-around time!

 

Headliner
Starting to work on miscellaneous projects while the gearbox and transfer-case are out.

There were many stains on the headliner, even after vacuuming and steam-cleaning it. I decided to wrap it in black suede. I've never undertaken a project like this before, so it was a learning experience and somewhat frustrating. I did a shoddy job of a back corner by applying too much glue, yet it still looks better than the faded and worn OEM covering.

 

Vinyl paint
Color matching the grey plastic roof bits.

 

2 years experience marshaling at the FIA Formula E races at LB Ca.

FYI: I wore ear plugs. Those E-cars have a certain E-gear whine that was loud

 

Shepherd Transmission
Is a great company to work with. Flawless transaction and insanely quick turn-around time. Stage 1 rebuild with a Wavetrac LSD.

 

I really dislike how shep and Jack's paint the case.


Make sure you never spray it down with brake cleaner, it will all come off and you'll have silver splatter all over everything.

 

I actually think the paint makes it look nice and clean. You can't really see the transfer-case if there is a 4g63 in the way, but with my puny motor it's quite noticeable. I do appreciate the advice about avoiding brake cleaner!

 

Suede Wrapping a C-pillar Cover
More tedious than I expected.

 

Headliner and rear interior
After spending 18 months outside of the car, it's finally back in.

 

Looks good!

 

The headliner is so, so sweet. I would love to do something like that.

 

Thanks for the kind words. It's not expensive, just time consuming. I highly recommend you practice on a random object first. The learning curve with this type of glue and fabric is steep, but short.

 

Where did you get the fabric and glue? I may seriously give it a shot.
