What size wheels and tires are those? the Rears seem to fit perfect without any stretch and still have a decent sidewall. Love the color and flares too they look great.

 

Beautiful car..i will be doing an overseas build as well...great inspiration...can you comment on the wheel/tire set up?

Pictures of the steering unit ECU and control box have also taken a picture of the installation diagram/layout and the control box functions if you need some more info please let me know i am going to talk with the chap that built it all for me to see if he will make some more and what the $ will be.

 

Any word on the price on the Electric steering unit? Or any more will be produced? I'm kind of interested in it!

im somewhat interested in upgrading my turbos too. I want to get it on the road as i have it now on the stock ones and see what happens, but i am thinking something more like the N1 spec turbos or something kinda to the small side. also questioning a small single to simplify the engine bay, but i dont know at this point. will the stock injectors feed 12psi on the stock turbos? 440cc

Small update finding it hard to spend time on the car with work.

 

I had to have a 15mm alloy spacer made for the front new Garret GT2860-5 turbo as the original oil drain pipe was hitting the housing not allowing it to sit correct.

 

With running 3 AN-6 braided fuel lines (2 feed to the fuel rail and 1 return) i was unhappy with them in the gearbox tunnel so i have made a fuel line box from some 50mm x 50mm alloy box section for the 3 fuel lines to run in and it will sit under the car.
