need to register the car as can't wait to drive it.

I will post some pics next week but full car pics only after whole is done some nice parts going in will kill the surprise. There are some features and photoshoots pending so it will be exciting

That sucks. Hope you get it resolved soon, I can't wait to see the final pics.

Changed the differential finally, thanks to John at Betamotorsports for providing the custom stub axles, Sti diff fitment took 10 mins all bolt on just the drive-train needed the holes to be redrilled

Sti to S30 halfshafts Stub axles

Drive-shaft holes were re-drilled

Cusco rear strut bar fitted, front will fit after all engine work

Was tired of all messed up wiring and VTC was not working as well so went with Adaptronic Standalone ECU for RB25

As the engine theme was black colour so changed coil and cam gear cover to carbon fiber ones.

Car finally has some number plates

As I said earlier when the shop was doing wiring i sent crank covers and intake manifold for polishing, so today everything came back and was installed along with coil pack and camgear covers in carbon fiber

Got this long time back today installed it

Compared to Chinese Nismo one

Replaced

Custom radiator cooling plate not liking it much but will fix it later maybe cut in half and some more bends, was done in aluminium then chrome plating.

Got aluminium covers for headers and turbo plate and removed the stock ones

Coolant overflow tank custom made according to the body curves in aluminium

Chrome cam covers with coil pack cover in carbon fiber

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

Intake manifold installed

With fuel rail

Engine is looking good now, hopefully after cleaning up everything final outcome will be much better

Got the last set of missing parts some new emblems, strut covers, door handles and misc clips and stoppers

for Nadri had to buy both Momo and workbell adaptor still the horn button is loose any suggestions?

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

Installed the front Cusco strut bar cheery of the top for the bay

, loving the engine bay some cleaning of nuts bolts is there but thats more of an ongoing project

Installed spacers front and back fitment is superflush

Front needs a drop but will do once final alignment is done as caster, camber and toe is totally out as well

Courtesy of recovery vehicles

infact all wheels has big curb marks

Stanced out nice in the end

Beauty and the beast
