Amen to life getting in the way! My car is on hold untilmim back in Aus, it's killing me its all I think aboutbut mate for the time you've had and considering your taking it a bit at a time it's going well! Def keep my eye on it when I can!
It turns into a bit of an obsession you end up spending every spare minite working on it. will be worth it when it get finished

got the front end all fabed up just need to decide ware to fit the oil cooler and and the power stearing cooler eather side or between the rad and intercooler.
Upside down intercooler to me i think it will work very short pipe work. if it dosn't work ill just turn it round!
rad supports a bit low think ill raise it
Started playing with the hoses
also looking at ware to put the pipe work
always end up in a bit of a mess with everything
Part of my job is making safety movies. You brake the dummy you fix the dummy!!!!! bit random

got the holes cut for the intercooler pipe work
had a look at the suspencion as well. i did have the bump stops out from the driftworks lower arms but there realy isnt clearance for that id have to widen the lower arms.
Lower arms are full out
Here are the hubs
sorry my garage is a mess !!
The kinked rods work
Notice i have trimed the side of the chassie a bit. I am going to use a spacer maybe 15mm hubcentric
I'm also using tein rod ends and track rod ends
One mod i will have to make is a rose joint drop links for the front and back anti roll bar
