Mirko's 86 Build

[johl]

yeh no doubt it looks top quality. i was just inquiring into the foot plates because its a bit of a hot topic with bolt in cages. do you plan on welding the plates underneath the floor plan to tie into the chassis rails? it may be over kill but the floor isnt exactly that strong

[Mirko]

No need have plates underneath as well so no point

[drift kid]

Cage looks very tidy, nice one man

Looks good mate! Door cards are quite interesting.
I've been using Duplicolour vinyl/fabric paint on my plastics. And used it on my dash. Are you using something similar?
I wasn't sure If I wanted to do black on black interior, as my front seats will have light grey inserts (old Recaros)
But interesting to see done. Await the finished product!

[Mirko]

Same but prep wash well first and a lot of coats then use a softener at the end and they are softer then new very nice.

Ordered Haltech Ecu and dash so waiting on that and in process of wiring ez wiring harness in now as well can't wait till it arrives hopefully end of week or early next from Anthony then once that's done onto motor build and finish installing running gear

[Mirko]

Bit of an update.

Roof liner and A and B pillar plastics are painted and in. Still waiting on ECU but started fabing center console will post pics up soon.

Missing a bunch of clips for plastics which need to source anyone has any ideas

[Mirko]

So more progress working on center console so I can wire it all in and it's coming along now test fitting everything

Going to hold fuse box, Ecu plugs for dash and Ecu switches for pumps etc and gauges keeping car nice and clean

[Mirko]

Finally fitted rear wing


Now it's all done and sealed well and come up good. Now just to finish the car lol

[drift kid]

Wing looks really good, I've never been a fan of rivetted on ducktails but that looks neat, no ripples etc. and the centre console looks great too, are you c/f vynil wrapping it?

[Mirko]

Thanks dude. I take things a little over board and measured them all out exactly with a laser level lol.

For console a mate of mine who is also maybe one of the best painters I know is starting a side business of the paint dipping and is gonna apply this carbon dipping to it plus some other interior bits and then you have to clear which he will do as well. He has done wheels etc and looks great so I'll post pics once it's done
