Time for another update.
I had a single day where i went to look at the car. This time i had to do something different. My friend who are creating the oilpan for me, asked me if i can figure out how much space there is for a intake and exhaust manifold as he would like to design these. So i had to figure out how to get these measurements. The car is 360km away from him, so its not possible for him to go and do the measurements himself. After a LOT of research, i found a solution. My friend is a technical designer among other things, so if i could create the enginebay digitally, he can work with that. So the solution is a 3D scanner. https://www.instagram.com/p/B86oz2unQtz/ ![]() ![]() So now he can create everyting without even getting his hands dirty :P Next stop, is to 3D scan the CA18DET engine. I also had an extra instrumentcluster. Here i thought about adding the Defi Advance ZD into. But after a lot of playing around, its not possible due to the 2 buttons on it. Instead i wanted to create a Carbon face to make it a bit more exclusive. The face will be made of only 2 layers of carbonfiber cloth - wich means its only around 0.4mm thick! Perfect for this application. ![]() ![]() ![]() My mechanic took the valves out of the head, and they look pretty good. No need to change anything here ![]() ![]() Last but not least, I have to do some fiberglass work, so we can get the car ready for paint. The rear valances have to be extended around 2-11mm to follow the OEM lines and the right overfender had to be shortened 2mm in the end. Nothing a bit of fiberglass cant handle :P ![]() ![]() ![]() |
