lots of changes going on with the car....
new fuel cell made by Justin (nubVR) to have internal 044's thanks to Pete @ IE with his mount plates. then anodized the rail and cell for protection against E-85. also did some hardline fuel lines too with SS lines.
built some aerodynamics stuff, turbo inlet and headlight cover out of fiberglass.
got some solid strut tops with spherical bearings.
made cast control arms work for the rear, stronger and hopefully the better ball joint design will help keep alignments.
changed the front steering arm attachment to help with trans removal faster.
added logging capability for the fuel pressure.
doing a staging brake setup.
made some changes to shifting, short throw and stiffer center return detent so it springs back to center better for hitting 3rd gear. just stuff i make, little fab stuff that i like to do.
went to a steel flywheel for the twin disc setup.
Accusump for dry start pre-oiling.
still doing changes to the motor..... want more clearance on the rod bearings. (have .0015 want .003)
Pete is going to make a custom exhaust cam, as the one that i have is way too big for the application. its more an N/A cam in reality.
car may be down at DJM in Jan/Feb.... and the car has been seeing some magazine time lately as well. Pg 32 of the Dec '10 PVW, pg 54 of the Jan '11 Eurotuner (so i was told). also was displayed at the Grand Opening of the new Audi dealership in Wilsonville. Joey and Derek took care of setting it up to show then as i was at work.
