Now with the roof off i can upgrade my roll cage so much easier and it gives me loads more light inside the car to work with and i can now rewire and make the welded floor supports for the paddle-shift floor mounts …then i can finally fit the Carbon roof last job after its had the stickers removed and a sand and re lacquer of 2k clear coat  |

Paddle-shift Support riser nearly finished 3-4 hrs left then drill some big holes to save weight and allow me to fix and hide the bolts …so it matches the gearshift support riser on the left of the pic Its given me loads of room to put a new Hydraulic handbrake or cable or both   |

Because i wont be using a throttle cable anymore and need a Electric throttle control to move my 48mm jenveys for my paddle shift gear change I've managed to source one of these and they are not cheap …this is called the fly by wire throttle control and it blips the engine on paddle-shift up and down gear change on Sequencial gearbox without needing any clutch  |

This item connects to my Tilton 800 pedal box throttle and gives the signal to the throttle Actuator above rather than a throttle cable …It works similar to a TPS sensor This works in conjunction with the paddle shift and gear-lever if you dont want to use paddle shift only gear lever then Clutch will be used only to change down gear when using the gear-lever  |
