Hey Guys! After a few weeks of silence it has been a very busy weekend!A lot of small work has been done on the car.
The Sparco 6-point rollcage has been painted and installed and the custom interior is nearly finished now
The engine work is nearly completed, Just waiting for a few parts now to arrive (and some money).
Also fitted a Golden Eagle diffuser this weekend! This diffuser is common on a lot of Japanese drag and trackcars. It lowers drag of the rearbumper, because the wind can now escape through the holes in the diffuser and bumper. It still has to be spray painted matt black for finishing touch.
And last but not least i started fitting and welding the custom Simons 3" inch exhaust today
 .

I have my bachelor degree in marketing and communications, but after i graduted i decide to do something totally different. I actually have i few jobs at the momenten :P. I work parttime for www.automaxx.nl . This company does al the big tuning events in the Netherlands and also the Dutch Time Attack series. For the moment i also work at one of the biggest suppliers of car parts in the Benelux and besides that i'm very busy getting my own company of the ground.
Amazing that i also have the time to build this car!:P

Thats a showcage it's fitted on the upper front seatbelt bolts en the lower rear seatbelt point. Is from Dimma that also designed the wrc widebody kit.
It costs a fortune, but for that money you don't have to strip the car down and it's plug and play!
