yeah it wasn't too painful. I ordered the inside bit, and one extra top piece in case someone else wants it here. Cheaper than shipping it later separately!

Your cage is beautiful

Powertrain changes, upgrades or?

I can see a few people fighting for the spare scoop once you get some decent photos of the weave in it. it puts some of the Japanese carbon fibre stuff I've got to shame.

Thanks, but it could have been 600 times better if the nitwit that did it for us listened to how we said we wanted it done, we even did drawings for him which he totally ignored. The cage is a sore point with me, I have had to modify so many things that I shouldn't have had to due to the inbred that did it.

Nothing at the moment, the stock 1.3 litre engine will have to do me for a while until I sort out suspension (http://www.mcasuspension.com/main.htm ) and brakes (eventually to be 4 wheel disc brakes with balance bar pedal box setup).
I have two 1NZ-FE's (with ecu's etc) at home as well as an 8 bolt TRD lsd and C56 gearbox with a 4.3:1 final drive. The plan is to hopefully shove the gearset from the C56 into the echo bellhousing and casings along with the lsd.

But now that it's finally back together and going, I have to get it registered before I can start making it "rally ready".
