Toyo trunk liner



Template for the pattern for rear seat delete, It started as the GP one, the patterns that came were good geting you close but I wouldn't use them as blue prints, as you can see it needs some changes here and there.



seat delete



seat delete



false floor and seat delet installed (not finished but done for today)



some other updates, I ordered the adapter for the turbo oil surply line so I can attach it to the head and the whole oil return line addembly, I bought a 3rd amp today and another electronic cutout for the exhaust.


slowly but surely its coming along

I just bought the last sub I need to


and your misunderstanding the surply line... there are theaded fittings with plugs in them on the head, you remove the plug and there is a threaded line going to a pressureized oil passage..... female threaded hole + female threaded end on the oil surply line = doesn't fit, I orded the adapter so they will go together... make sence?

Very nice. Remember how to make that false floor and delete so when I come home we can knock that out in the 2 days of mass installing.

^^^ not gonna happen, I spend most of the day (when I wasn't being lazy) doing that, thats all I worke don today, its all just laying in there, nothign is sucured or covered or anything, its time consuming to get it done, plus it didn't help that I used thick would.... 5/8 MDF for the back 3/4 MDF for the front since its will surport the wieght of all the subs and @!#$

I have a CF engine cover, I only polished it cause you can see edges at certain angles with the cover on, all the charge pipes will have sterling Jet hot coating, once I get everythign fitted I'll send them out, and the valve cover, fuel rail, and TB are polished, plus a bunch of other stuff.... I can't give away all my surprises

great time.... i hope to have low 14s next year NA New built LD9.. my car is maily for road courses and autox... but am working on a little on the show side... i want to keep the car as clean as possible... and i AM adding some balist weight in the rear.. the car will be on 4point scales a few times over the winter to balance out the car as much as possible for my racing needs. of course the balist weight will be audio equipment

I hope your not removing the seat for weight? the 3/4 MDF weighs 5x more than the seats did.
