Rev4 V6 - NOW BREAKING

[jasongtr]

finally got round to doing some work on the car today.

engine bay is virtually finished (not with the supercharger yet though, want to get it running in this shell first before complicating things)

Just need some copper washers to refit the fuel filter and finish the heatshield and refit that.

Fitted the turbo brake servo today, need a longer hose as its about 2 inches too short, but im sure ill have something somewhere for that.

Not much but it means im closer

[foxy-stoat]

Nice chap..... How about some pics...

[jasongtr]

its hanging at the moment. Needs a good mop

[craig]

Good developments fella, looking forward to pics

[jasongtr]

not much in way of pics, but as progress is made ill get some more up

these arrived today - Tein Tech S Springs





Fidanza fitted





mmmm - TRD front strut brace

[jasongtr]

front tein springs/adjustable GAB shocks fitted - calipers have been removed and cleaned ready for the colour change, need to order new disks and pads as these ones are low.

teins make it very low, obviously not driven it yet so may settle a little more (and the back isnt done yet so make pull the front bumper up a few mm) but it looks nice and low now

looking good...

excellent work there Jason

thanks again for the bits yesterday and for letting me have a good nosey around your car

[jasongtr]

no worries, just need to find out if i can get some longer topmount studs for the rear shocks so i can raise the TRD brace up to clear the engine

[jasongtr]

rear suspension done and fitted with longer studs to allow for some spacers to be made up to raise the TRD brace to clear the engine,

the plan is to use 2 sets of the plates that are on the car and have them welded to make up a solid space to allow the brace to be raised and still provide a solid mount to anchor everything down.

pics of the car now the rears have been dropped and the trial fiting of the rear brace - once the supercharger has been fitted the gold engine detail wont be there, it loked great in the blue car but not so good in the white one sadly, the supercharger is dark grey and the TRD brace will be painted orange (along with the calipers)

[toxo]

I've got a spare set of those spacer plates if you need more / run out

[jasongtr]

cheers for that but its not a simple as spacing it out as the top set will be angled down towards the front of the car slightly as im still using the 2 pick up points for the x parts, hence needing them to be welded (at the correct angle)

[riot68]

looking cool, what colour is the engine detail going to be?...

[jasongtr]

all the gold will just be dark grey like the supercharger. Might look at hoses and small dress up items. Ill have to see as i go along

[jasongtr]

another small update,

stereo wiring is now all in, as is the wiring for the extra gauges

oil pressure
water temp
fuel pressure
wideband Air fuel ratio

and i have tinted the rear qtrs/rear window (looks a bit darker than i thought it would)

and have painted the calipers, trying to get orange by mixing red and yellow, didnt come out the shade i wanted (to match the JDM front lights)

will make a decision on whether to repaint or not at some point

window tints:



calipers from this



to this



this was another shade i did (the one that got fitted in the end is the one on the floor as the one fitted in this picture was too red in real life)

[riot68]

looking good, orange was the colour!...

[jasongtr]

yes mate. The stitching in the dash is going to be orange too

[riot68]

Now that is just posing!

Car for sale after £2500? ...

[jasongtr]

yeah sure. When you pay the balance you can drive it away
