The center console wiring is finally finished. The main and engine harnesses will be easier but will still take a while. All connections are tested and it should be much cleaner and less chaotic in the cabin now.

I recieved my Stance GR+ 3 way suspension and got them on the car. The build quality is excellent and I'm really excited to get the car on the track with a professional driver. With the 3 sets of sway bars, the suspension should have a ton of adjustability. Before component locations are finalized, I will get the car on the scales and hopefully get the cross weights a bit better.

The new Stance 3 ways make me happy. I can't wait to see how the car does now!

Om1kron · 01-27-2009, 09:49 AM

Stance is real legit, reminds me of Sasha Holy Fucks s14... You seriously have a really nice wire crimper/stripper deal. And just to clarify are those FUSES? at the bottom of your control console? (fan1, fan2, etc with the numbers on them?)

boosteds14 · 01-27-2009, 09:58 AM

more like breakers i believe. which are nice, since if they pop, you just reset them by pushing them in. Had on our last race car, loved them. Cheap for what they are also.

that sounds awesome!! so instead of replacing a fuse you just push the breaker back in like a house??

Om1kron · 01-27-2009, 10:27 AM

Yeah, industrial electronic shit right thur...

96Turbo · 01-27-2009, 10:44 AM

There are four fuel pumps in the car, 2 low pressure and 2 high pressure. LCS isn't there anymore, it is FSS, flat shift and EPAS is electronic power assisted steering. It is actually an electro-hydraulic system

Nothing in there was bought new except the wire, which is new old stock. The breakers, crimpers, and all tools are all from aerospace liquidators. Also, I got three Raychem infrared shrink tubing shrinkers for $20, each retail for 500. They were broken, I fixed them and sold them. I've never seen tubing shrink this fast.

Did you buy all this stuff locally or online?

The DMC crimper is a milspec part number and a few other companies make them. The Daniels ones are really nice though and are used more than any others. They retail for about 275 but if you wait around long enough, they can be had for about $100. I get pretty much everything online as there really isn't anything around here. I have a bunch of the M26482 connectors in the 18 shells; Bendix, Deutsch and Glenair. I'd like to do that all day

Bill for president!

**ThatGuy** · 01-27-2009, 11:29 AM

Bill, those are the same circuit Breakers we use on our aircraft. If they are good enough for $70 Million+ Military aircraft, then they absolutely ROCK in your car.

Your build never ceases to amaze me.

Awesome work as always.
