looking good mossy ,good to see you are doing a top job

 

Thank Peter, not too much longer now to get the engine in and running!

 

 

 

How many of the lines are you going to do?

 

Done them all except the return fuel line, I made the main fuel line a bit too short to reach the bracket at the very rear of the car but I think it should be fine without.

Looks factory, I bet there's quite a few hours in all that bending/flaring!

engine fitted 

[Agno]

Looks hot! What are the specs on the wheel/tyre combo you have there?

This looks fantastic mossy, One of the best

builds i have seen on here yet.

Haven't seen many people go to this extent and it

will be one of the best cars going around when your done.

Love the colour, love the wheels.

Don't cut any corners now the devil is in the detail.

 

By the way how close is that orange to the 918 orange ?

 

Cheers

Paul

Thanks Ledge, the colour is definitely brighter than 918, it was a really hard decision to pick the right colour too as its one step you cant really go back and change(unless you want to strip the entire car again) , i think it will come together nicely though once the exterior coat is on.

its coming along very nice mate well done

[thriller]

Looks stunning. Deep black watanabe's will look amazing with that orange once completed.

[RB26DETT]

Car is starting to look very good!!!

 

Just read the whole build thread again but couldn't spot the chassis number?

 

[gav240z]

Coming along very nicely mate, going to look real good when all those panels go on.

[PB260Z]

That colour looks amazing with the deep black rims. Can't wait to more photo's

Top work.

For the 574 persons that have asked about wheel and tyre sizing....this is IMO the perfect sizing for rim and tyre with stock tubes etc.

But if you run semi slicks in that dia and offset you will need the roll the gaurds. Road tyres aren't an issue due to the different side wall shape 

 

Looks hot Mossy. It's all coming together, every little piece makes a difference to how the car looks. It must be great motivation for you

[lightmaster240z]

Look great mossy.

This Xmas party is look like it going to have quiet some new debutant's. 

[SS30RR]

Do you know this car up in syd?

[mossy]

That looks like Adams car "the brown hornet"

[SS30RR]

[acf321]

Hey Mossy,

 

Loving your car buddy, and colour schematic too!

Here's a few more beauties that I used as inspiration for mine.

What was the specific colour name you used? mine is called Mclaren Papaya Orange.

Hi Adam, I was wondering where you dissapeared to!  Your car looks great in that colour cant wait to see it finished.

 

The colour I chose is porsche signal orange which i think is very similar to the GT3 orange, was a real hard decision to make but I'm pretty sure it was thr right one 

[SS30RR]

have you guys cracked open your rear lights to clean them up? if so do you have any pics ?
