I've only heard good things about the OBX stuff which is why I went for it.

A mate of mine is running them on a Lexus V8 and he said they were great.

As for being incomplete I hope not I was told all I would need is the injectors from the engine and throttle cables.

I was going to get some proper Nissan gaskets too so if you have them let me know please.

Ah cheers mate.

The headers just turns up no extras.

They had unpacked them to check too.

But then again these are a lot more than the headers.

Bit of a lull in action this week but did a track day Friday that gave me a kick in the ass to get on so late Saturday night and Sunday morning I got the body mounts done so chassis and body are now as one

Now I can start on the cage/frame.

Rear mounts.

Front mounts. (Not finished will be boxed in with steel too).

And off the jig for the first time.

Cheers Bizz I spent a couple of evening browsing your build looks the nuts mate.

Tried to fit the other inner sill tonight but the spot welder been playing up.

Turn out the new longer lead I got had brakes in it.

So spent the last two hours finding them fixing them and made it longer again.

Nothing done in the car tho.

Started to boxin the strut hoops last night.

I don't have any tools for bending shaping so was hard times trial era cut shaping grinding banging bending.

Wanted to do it in one but just too hard to get it all right in one so had to cut it up into three I'm happy with how it looks tho.

Yes mate but with that come's problems like the gearstick being behind me and the engine being where the peddles would normally be. Lol.

Tonight a mate came over to help me decide engine position.

Option 1 is over the X-Member. . .

Option 2 is behind the X-Member. . .

Little bit done last night been waiting for weld primer to come.

Keyser the alignment is the same all I moved was the hoop that holds it.

The main reason for moving was I now have something to mount the wing too. If I left it as it was I would of had to add another rail for the wing.

It also gives me lots more room in the bay for engine exhaust

I also think it looks better and be easier to box in.

Feeling better now.

Cut it all back out this morning realigned the top plates and started again.

Long day with a lot of head scratching cutting grinding welding came up with this.

Still needs boxing in on the inside edge and bit of bracing and it be ready to drop on the wheels.

Few pics of my welds as I quite proud of them.

Wasted the night the top plate works mint but I fooked up got one side cut tacked in but I don't like it but it's not too short to change.

What you think?

Think it would be better with the upright on the outside edge of the plate instead of the inside.

More room in the bay too. And thinking about it it's Gona be easier to brace up.

So pi**ed off with myself right now.

That's what you get for rushing tho.
