Cheers mate that sounds good. how many points are in the cage? are we talking door bars and A pillars, or a rear 3 point to the struts?

Its a great fit, and very tight.

no need to weld (was advised not to actually, if some one rear ends your car, for example, and its totaled, you cant just unweld it).

comes with some insanely strong nuts and bolts (18 ton rating or something likethat).. three for each leg.

Door bars are 50 euro extra.

you can get it in aluminum for 550 euro.. this saves about 8kg worth of weight.

i was a cheap ass and went for the steel cage

That looks proper good!

will i need to take the dash out??

bump

is urs a four door?

if so, you can just bring it all in through the side door (wanted to say 'back door').

first the front portion, then the back bit;)

to be honest, what took the most time was drilling the holes through the floorpan

(in other words, no the dash stays in)

No plans yet, need to pay the road tax, then it will be either better brakes or suspension.

will get some video and pictures this weekend.

I wanna see a movie too .

I'll try and do one tomorrow night people =]

what are the chances of mot on this car? or you keeping it as a track only?

Well exhaust wise, I'm just going to buy a standard one, and fit that for the mot =]

pretty sure the rest is ok..... =]

cool hope so just try not to set a lot of fire with flames coming out the side also i would be careful when at petrol stations lol

very good idea.. the fuel vapour sinks to ground level cos its denser than air don't it..

u actually really wanna be careful there mate!

how do rally cars with turbo anti-lag get around it? do they fill up from normal petrol stations at all?

wow never thought of that either.

all cars backfire a little bit, at low RPM's (most of them cover the sound up with the dampers)..

but i dont think the flames will shoot our of the tailpipe unless you are revving it like a chav at a gas station.

i dont think there is a problem

not MOT safe, really, but in the real-world, its fine:)

Lmfao, putting your foot down can kill you without having to go fast . I'd suggest putting the exhaust out the back tbh, centre exits looks hawt .

When i say it spits flames, i mean it does when i back fire or let off or change gear at high revs. it doesnt sit there burning like a torch =]

and i wanted something different hence the side exit =]

keep the side exit, its fine;)

Thank you =] a man talking sense.

todays problem is there is a horrific rattle coming from the exhaust, i think there is a little bit of cat still clinking abut in ther somewhere, might have to get the dyson out.

sealed all the little holes in the floor to stop condensation and welded back doors in place =]

how exactly did you de-cat it, don't you just have a straight pipe going through of same diameter from the manifold?

I got a bar and hammered it through the bastard =]

Just fitted passenger side racing seat, i need a subframe for my side so leaving the standard seat in for now =]

welded back doors in place?!!?!?! :p

do you mean... you welded the doors to the body? :(

what does this mean? why did you do that:(

i like you, but i dont see the logic in that:(
