    well have done a few prac days at winton now and also alot of other this along the way and as some of you you may have heard the car has been off the road for a while now (canary) have got many plans for it still, the whole driveline is going into my corolla that i bought for a daily a little while ago now aswell should make for a fun little daily, but the main news is ive purchased my motor and gearbox which will be going into this once i have sorted out alot of the rust that has reared its ugly head, future plans are as follows:

    -remove rust from the car cut out the rear flares and weld in new wider sections, cut rear floor section (where the spare wheel goes) put in the fuel system and battery in separate compartments sealed away from the cabin as i got into a little trouble at the last track day
    -black top beams motor and 6 speed = purchased
    -custom tail-shaft
    -custom r31 diff with pintara diff gear set and mini spool = half purchased
    -new set of coil-overs as the others will be going into the corolla
    -remove all un-necacary wiring, heater components, carpet, sound deadener, etc from the car
    -another pair of seats = not sure what i will buy yet any ideas would be great, was thinking of a pair of velo fixed back's
    -harnesses = not yet, get around to it once the car is a little closer to being ready dont want to waste valuable harness time haha
    -fibre glass hatch and j blood ducktail = done
    -fibre glass bonnet = later on, month or two away
    -the list goes on, if anyone is interested ill post up later as i gather more piece to the puzzle

    hope to have the car done by sometime.................oneday
