Removes the balance/transfer bar assembly that runs across the bulkhead, this saves considerable weight and will improve pedal feel due to a more direct action on the Master cylinder.

Where did you get the harness bar that fits onto your safety devices rollcage? i asked safety devices about extending my cage but he wasnt too helpful.

I bought a bar from them that they called a dash bar (came with some fittings and stuff) i then trimmed it down to fit across the rear legs. If i did it again i'd just go to a metal stockists and buy some tube of the correct dia and paint it black :thumb:

I'd hardly call 10st chubby lol lol Maybe compared to u tho :p

Am doing the corsa servo mod too

Unfderstand how to drop that in and mod the brake pedal.

Looks like you have kept the standard nova clutch pedal - was much modding required? Can you post some pics showing the detail of the clutch pedal?

Thanks.

Little update, I bought a few goodies.

2nd hand AVO coilovers, gonna paint them up before i fit them

Pilbeam works strut brace :D just finished polishing the endplates and painting the bar, wanted one for ages they're like hens teeth.

2nd hand fibreglass bonnet, a few more kilo's saved :)



I will be ordering some eccentric top mounts, bias pedal box and SPA dual oil-temp/press gauge this week.

Should be getting the cage welded in later in the week or some time next week, its one thing i haven't learnt to do yet, but i got a mate that can :)

I'll post some more pics up later in the week when I've actually been to the workshop :thumb:

p.s went to the workshop the other week and thought i'd start it up seeing as i hadn't for 7 months!!!! connected the battery back up which had been left on the floor, primed the fuel pump and the bad boy fired up first time!!! well happy :) :) :)

hey looks good mate! nicely stripped out aswell!

sounds good. post some pics up

shane
