So I had a little time up my sleeve today, thought I would do a little quick mod for the track, it came about as I have a few spare engine lids just sitting there in the shed... better to do something with em than just sit there :-)
 
I thought I would like to change where the air filter sits, hopefully allow it to breath a little better.. below is how it sits when not on the track.

 
As mentioned, I have a few spare engine lids, so I started marking up.
 
1st I marked up, ready to cut out the panel half covering the vents.

 
How it looks once that section was removed.

 
Next, I re positioned the cleaner setup so it faces directly upwards & marked out the hole on the spare engine lid.

 
Cut out made & looking good!

 
Engine lid in closed position.... WOW, it lined up perfectly :-)

 
Quick bit of PCV piping installed to correct length... and there you go.

 

 

 
No idea, if it will help, but definitely looks cool... for the track anyways.

So.... have been pretty sick of seeing this dreadful looking roof, thought it was time to do something about it.
After a few hrs wet blocking it out, it was finally ready for some paint.
 
This is how it was before I started.

 
After quite a while of wet rubbing...

 
And a bit more sanding...

 
3 coats later of 'Mat Black'.


 
Pretty happy with the finished result. 
 
 
Now whether I can put up with looking at the boot lid & bonnet, they too have quite bad clear peel.

Next on the agenda, flush & put new racing brake fluid & pads, install new RSR 595's & test out at Mallala on Saturday 10th of Dec.

If all goes well with no unexpected issues, It will then be ready for its interstate trip over to WP for the Mr2 Track day challenge in Jan 2017!!!

Cant wait!

Ok, slight change of plans.. I've decided not to bring this car over to the track day challenge in January.
Will be bringing the two sw20's over instead.
