Another update...

Have finished the wiring, the brakes are all in ready to be bled, the engine runs and the paddleshift works..

Just the body to go back on and then its time to go annoy the OAPs :shock: (with toilet roll handy for the enevitable brown trouser moments!)

Its hard to describe how this thing sounds, but its amazing....a bit like a mini f1 car lol!

Well I finally finished the car off and took it for a test session yesterday....Lets just say that it SHIFTS! Scares the bejesus out of me! :shock:

Sadly I have another project comming, so im going to have to sell this car :( If anyone is interested, let me know!

Spec:
Zx9R-(c) engine Dynod to 148hp at the rear wheels.
Paddle/cable gear change
4 pot brake calipers front and rear on two master cylinders
Inboard front suspension
Quick release steering wheel
6 point racing harness
Magnesium wheels.
Yokohama Advan tyres.
Fire extinguisher

Bodywork is a little tatty, but my intention was to leave it that way until I was happy I could drive the car on track without spinning off and damaging the body! (requires a bit of filling and paint)

Pics.
