Bit more done tonight. Sorted out the issue with the brake disc catching on the hub carrier steering arm. There was alot of play in the the hub and we thought this maybe partly at fault as the disc may not have been sitting true, but after stripping it all down and having a look it was clear everything was ok as when the driveshaft was tightened up it took out all the play.
So we decided that the best solution was to grind a bit of the hub carrier as theres plenty of metal there and we only took off about 1mm. (Other idea was to space the disc out but this would have been a nightmare when fitting the calliper). So now there nice and free.
The problem area after being ground down, loads of clearance now!

And finally I had problems fitting my seat onto the standard subframe that had been modified for fitting fixed buckets, as the previous owner must have had wider seats than mine so there was a huge gap. So the mounts were cut off and rewelded to suit my seat and then painted up all nice

Thats ready to be bolted into the car now and I can finish mounting the drivers side harnesses.
Also decided to have my topmounts turned down so as I can get more camber (and castor eventually) so should get them back this week and it can all go together and go back on its wheels and then its on with the rear beam!!
I thought you had finished this and had started breaking it because you were board....lol
I did, this the next one :p lol
What breaks are you fitting then? (sorry if you have said, I'm lazy) lol
Its the 284mm V6 setup, but thats why I find it strange the problems I've had as not heard of anyone else having similar issues with this setup :confused: Strange!!
Sorted now anyway, I hope!! lol
284mm are turbo stuff, not v6.
