    A few things changed recently. I got rid of the CompBrake pedal box as it was rubbish, so Fitted a Tilton 600series with AP stubby cylinders. Should have done that from the beginning really. Also got rid of the hard lines and had the whole car done in swaged steel overbraid. I always hated the handbrake cables too so got rid of them and fitted a hydraulic one I had lying around.



    Skirts and bumpers painted in Audi Brilliant Red (LY3J for my reference)



    Another thing I didn't like was the steering column and display support. It was quite a big decision but I cut all that out and started again too.



    It now has a modified Clio steering column but no pics of that yet.

    Whilst the screen was out I took the chance to paint the A pillars matt black, which was a good decision. Also did a larger sun strip with the rubber off so when fitted there aren't any gaps.



    The engine had to come out for the rear oil seal, which is all done and back in now.



    I had some good R1R's lying around off another car, so had them put on the OZ's as a wet tyre, hopefully never to be used.



    Also had some TH's painted the same colour with a fresh set of 03G's to go on.



    I had a bit of a play with my Cromodora's but they just aren't going to fit until i do the arch mods sadly.



    The fuel system was always inside the car, Not an issue on a track car but all had to be either boxed or moved. I made a neat tray to mount it all under the car, which is fine for now, but if truth be known that will almost certainly be moving again soon also.



    That's all folks. It wont make the first race now, still lots to do and health isn't great so it will happen when it happens,

    Wow! Looking amazing, love the hydro handbrake.

    Really liking the red bumpers too, gives a touring car feel to it.
    Glad the engines going back together too.
