Thanks man! I love your build as well. Very simple and detailed. Looks factory yet you know its modded by the overall look/feel. I know mine is completely different so thanks for the encouragement! Hopefully I will have some useful updates in the near future.

Well the car isnt going to be done for a while at the body but the cluster is finished. HUGE THANKS to Broadfield for his services.

This Setup will Monitor:
RPM
MPH
Gear Selection
ECU Codes
Oil Pressure
Fuel Pressure
Oil Temp
Coolant Temp
Wideband A/F (left)
Fuel % (right)

I dont yet. Once I can get the whole car back to the fab shop, I will post pics of how it will mount. Its pretty simple but hard to explain. Basically going to use base plates and slip fitting to hold the bash bar in place.

Awesome build !!!

Subscribed !!!

I installed the injectors & engine harness.

My plan is to route everything to the driver's kick panel. The fan relays, injector relays/fuses and ecu will go in the inside panel where the oem chassis fuse block was locatrd. The new painless harness is "planned" to be mounted in the center under the armrest. This way I can avoid having pesky passengers accidentally kicking my sh*t.

wow, i love everything i see. broadfield did a great job like always. you are dropping a pretty penny on this coupe.... im sure it will be worth it!!!

I couldnt decide what I wanted to do with the dash.... leave it alone, wrap it, new vinyl...... then I said Flock it and ordered this....

And simply one of the coolest gadgets to simplify the wiring and my well being as a result. The ARC flat touch panel is killer.

Since I decided to leave the wide body panels exposed (not molded) I wanted to make it easy to remove buy using bolts vs rivets. And of course you cant just go down to ACE Hardware.

Floor pan cut, sectioned and sealed to get my seat as low as possible.

Thanks for the kind words. If you approve I must be on the right track cuz your car is super clean. One of the few hatches (actually only 3) that I really like/ would own.

Wow, really impressed with all the quality work, parts, and the fact you do everything yourself. Mad props man.

Thanks man!

I am going to try this whole fuel cell thing one last time. This one is approved by FIA, NHRA, NASA and pretty much any other racing body.

Big THANKS to Jeremiah for suggesting the Aluminum version. Saves 13lbs over steel and looks pretty cool. It has an internal sump with 3 check valves to ensure pickup always has fuel to the last drop. The leveler is calibrated for GM type output and remote filler neck can be clocked any direction.
