Agreed, and you've done a great job mate! One of the meanest Del Sol's I've seen.

Relocated my battery to boot, relocated my fusebox to under the dash, tucked the headlight wiring through the wings, relocated the coolant bottle, horn and alarm siren;

Hows it going bud.
Got a question for you when you fitted the qsd kit did you have a problem with the pulley touching the chassis leg do i need to smack the chassis leg with a hammer for a couple of mm? Im using the euro r pulley btw.

Thanks

Hi mate sorry just seen this, I moved the crank pulley in by half an inch closer to the block so I had no clearance issues. Others have had to knock the chassis leg a bit too, but I got away with it.


As a general update to this, the Sol is currently off the road whilst I tuck the entire engine bay, weld up all the holes etc. on a budget myself. Should look awesome when painted up and will post pics when complete :)

WOW I just realised I have not updated this thread in quite a while!! And a fair bit has happened!!!

Without going into detail, I've basically done a shed load of work haha and made it into this months Jap Performance Magazine - Jan issue - out now!! So go buy it!!

Very happy as it's a childhood dream that's been realised. Will add a few pics to this post a bit later, but I'm very very chuffed to get some national (maybe worldwide) coverage and acknowledgement :)
