Which style arm rest is that too. I need to get one for mine.

Id be interested in a 240 console, maybe not the dash insert as i have a vintage air kit and a radio. but defiantly the lower console. As long as its reasonable..

Sorry for the delay as couldnt pass by that shop, they now told me center console they can not do it as they made changes in mine and wrapped it, but the instrument cluster can be done provided there are atleast 5 orders with different configurations etc...

Cam gear cover changed to the carbon one, some changes were required as cover was for series 1 and Neo is slightly different.

After the wiring got the car on dyno (AWD Mustang) but couldn't go above 230-240whp, coils start misfiring, but did the tune and car is running perfect now, pushing around 215-220whp on 5psi. Will change the stock coils, plugs and do a retune after a month or so.

 

Did a quick cleaning job, all left now is to check the brakes as pressure is very low even after 1 inch willwood brake master cylinder

 

Installed some generic pedals

Will install Nardi after all the mechanical work, interior is all set now

I just ordered those same wheels in a different color and offset about a month ago. Now after seeing your car I'm wondering if I should have gone with a more aggressive size/offset. I went with 15x9 -28 front,15x10 -28 rear... Hope I don't need spacers to fill my flares. You did a great job on the car by the way!

You would be fine I guess, as per your offsets, mine are poking 10mm so you would be pretty flush

After driving some issues are coming up, like

1. Brakes not taking enough pressure
2. Some heat coming from from the gearbox opening
3. Clutch pedal needs a bit of alignment
4. Exhaust is too low might need working on gearbox mounting and move the exhaust up
5. Steering rod had some problem during alignment time running -1.7 camber on one end and -1.1 on other will be fixed soon

Coils, some trunk emblem, speedo GPS module and fuel sender are on order will be replaced next week. Apart from this car drives very nice suspension if a bit stiff i guess will loosen up after some driving.
