The harnesses are at sholder hieght so they take the strain not the seat. What cage will you be running? |

If its just a bar, no messing around with brackets etc. ________________________________________ R H Davey Welding Supplies. I sell new and used welding equipment in the Hampshire area.

looking pretty good  I was suposed to be having my battery put into the floor like that a few months ago, but the fabrication place never ended up doing the box for me  so its just held in place with a bar over the top bolted into the floor  Is it getting a full respray to cover all the rust  what colour ?________________________________________ Dimma + Gt35 turbo = Solid rear beam mounts £130 07889376885 Dan |

After weeks and weeks and weeks and (you get the impression) we were nearly finished the painting, just the colours to go on then some polishing: Unfortunately the green does not look very bright in these photos:    And completed:    Stuart ________________________________________ Peugeot 306 Gti-6 Track car (soon to be supercharged)Project page Blog |

Time to fit the dash, interior wiring & some green ‘accents’ – well we had to use the left over paint somewhere: The aluminium door cards were from ‘205dimma6’ on here.    ________________________________________ Peugeot 306 Gti-6 Track car (soon to be supercharged)Project page Blog |

Good effort When I first saw the paint job I thought 'what the f**k...', but the more I look at it the more I like it! Tempted to do something similar myself, maybe a nice red A-team stripe  What gear did you use for spraying? was looking at picking up some to do mine.....eventually ________________________________________ Team 'unintentional rat look' |

Here are photos of some parts we have been acquiring over the last few months.Seats: Got a great deal on a pair of OMP HTS fibreglass seats on eBay.   Coilovers: Bought these KW variant 2 coilovers from Stu on here.  Braided Brake pipes: Got these from ‘mr swampy s16’ with the red sleeving (this will match the red brake lines on the rest of the car – when done).  I had a hunt around my local scrappy and found 5 of these wheels – don’t look much but they are the C5 alloys . These wheels weigh nothing compared to the originals. Also got them at a bargain price – guess the guy at the scrap yard did not know they where alloy (and I forgot to tell him).  ________________________________________ Peugeot 306 Gti-6 Track car (soon to be supercharged)Project page Blog |

That's a crazy colour scheme but fair play, looks like it's come out well.
