Small update: Added some cuts out to assist with cooling  Front Coil overs installed Installed a pair of 12" pull fans to assist with heat escape Installed / test fitted border style side skirts, only so it looks simular to my other sw20 track car ;-) Fitted racing seat on factory seat rail to maintain low seating position & slide function  Next on the list, install rear wing, fit up dash, quick release steering wheel & fabricate accelerator pedal mount to allow 2gr pedal / position.

Great to see you are finding time to get back into it. I like the cooling option. Nice to see some nice new flash parts the car. You are also fitting a half cage? Have you spoken with Marc in Canada about ECU upgrades? He seems to have found a little more performance from the ECU.

Not planning on fitting a cage, do you happen to have contact details for Marc in Canada regarding ECU upgrades? Sent from my SM-J320ZN using Tapatalk

Whilst engine bay empty, waiting its 2GR, thought I would clean up the coolant overflow bottle, as very hard to see when engine is installed. Hopefully this will help / assist with future coolant monitoring.  Marked 'Full / Low' levels Marked on the hose 'High & Low' levels Electrical tape added for levels .jpg) Re-installed back into car... probably never see it again, but looks great ATM!

Ah... forgot to add this. Made up a 20mm thick accelerator 2gr pedal mount. Plan to use the original Aurion accelerator pedal. Will see how it goes, I matched it to the original mr2 pedal, height etc, so its positioned exactly the same :-)
