The next stage is cut away most of the original slam panel, and fabricate some mountings and brackets for the FMIC and new radiator. Also get rid of any uneccessary holes, brakets, mountings or anything in the engine bay, tidy it up completely and the prepare it for paint

OK, well I'm also going to be starting on my interior over the next couple of weeks.

 

I'm using this for a bit of inspiration:

I've been looking at interiors for months and months and this is the closest I've found to the look I want. It won't be the same (it's a different car for starters), and there are a few extra bits I'll be having, plus one or 2 bits I'll do differently for personal preference, but that sort of outlines what I want.

 

Watch this space for updates, and we'll see how it progresses. I'll be starting on the dash very soon, and also got some parts on order that I'll have to make a place for.

 

:cheers:

Are you making the flocked dash yourself mate? I know a couple on the Supra forums made their own and had brillant outcomes and everyone was pleased with the results? Just asking because i bought some flock with the intention of doing it myself alos but i then decided to put it into a wall :nutter:

 

Whats the money situation mate why a stock evo cooler? i garantee it'll be the first thing you change for a more effective one, HKS or Blitz LM for example
