I love how this is turing out!!

Little Update
 
So it's getting close now..

The last week has seen the front brakes, spindles etc done. The tubing for the brake cooling isn't on yet, but that's not far.

A lot of time has been spent ensuring the wiring harness etc is all 100% and that's almost finished now.

I had to make some decisions about gauges etc, but I think I will wait until it's finished before sharing these.

Coolers are in, and here's a shot of the front of the car.

The plan for the rest of the week is to ensure that we get wiring finalized, and hopefully the wheels on! I can't wait to see it rolling.

Beautiful car but I think it needs a few more oil coolers!

JEM911 01-26-2012 01:05 PM

Wheels are here...

Wheels lead to rolling shell...
 
So i'm hopeless getting things to size properly and within the image restrictions...

BUT here is the car ... rolling shell now.

I just got some updated pictures from the guys over at Patrick Motorsports, who have worked really hard to get a lot of work done in the reassembly of this beast.

A lot of work was done in the preparation stage of this to run all these cables and ensure that it all fits first time, without a problem.

It would seem that this is enabling a relatively quick reassembly.

I'm very excited...

Where did you get your dual master from....looks like Fabcar?

JEM911 02-07-2012 11:43 AM

Its a Fabcar / Patrick part, I understand that you can buy from ebay at:

DUAL MASTER CYLINDER SYSTEM FOR PORSCHE 911 & 930 | eBay

or just call Patrick Motorsports direct I guess...

JEM911 03-08-2012 03:21 PM

Dash is in....
 
Well most of it at least...

The wiring harness is almost complete now, and the Motec harness is almost complete as well...

I'm considering using the Motec camera system for in-car and front-bar camera angles... has anyone used this system? It seems like the logical choice seeing I'm running the Motec on the Engine...

Finally, a quick photo of the rear under-body... I'm pretty sure this gap will be filled by the engine next week.

Very nice. The entire project is very impressive. Did you have them install the complete later-style ventilation system? Or did you just fit the vents?

Very interesting rear lid. Have you decided on the grille or mesh?:eek:http://forums.pelicanparts.com/uploa...1331314403.jpg

RSR is def coming together. Looks great! Do you have an official build sheet of the project (brakes, suspension bits, etc ..)? Im curious to hear what brakes/rotors your running? Thanks.

I think I want to go with the mesh option here...

I haven't put the whole thing together yet, well I do in invoices but that's a long process to get together...

Re the Brakes - its all 993 Turbo brakes from memory, but I'll have to check to get more details.

Finalising the engine
 
Attached are a couple of pictures which show where we are upto on the engine. PM is trying to ensure that we have this 100% before we put it in. We are also trying to ensure all the other wiring and systems are in before we install the engine.

So you can see the lifts, plus the fire suppression and part of the motec at the top....
