Im guessing your gonna make it as light as possible. And also guessing your going klze in it. I really wish i had the time and space (and money) for a nice project. Good luck with it mate. Btw where is japfest this year as me and the misses may come up.

thanks its going to be a long project
all the interior, rear wiper,sun roof half the dash, radio and speaker and any brackets and wires that are not needed are all out
its not been a pain so far evey nut and bolt is rusted solid as the car has been stood for over a year but im getting there.

If you are doing body welding Jay why not remove the headlights and put something different in like ultra thin vauxhall calibra lights or something unusual to spice it up a bit and maybe some supra rear lights :wink:
-
holly crap work is happening fast!!, you do know tow hooks have to be visable and on during track use, dont know about santa pod tho,, even the screw in ones have to be fitted so they can be quickly pulled off track in event of accident.
looking good, whats the final colour going to be?

i dont think im that good at body work and i do like the look of the mx3 lights but i do like the silvia s15 front lights

Sylvia front end would look lush with a supra back end. Keep up the good work mate. Keep us posted on your progress

Very nice :)
Do like what you did with the front bumper and sunroof :)
I'd kill to have a place like that I could work on mine… My fooking car parking space might as be vertical.
