Thanks, looks really nice, but my front inner fenders need to be stock, since the chassisnumber is located there, if I touch that, I'm doomed......

So mine will have a mix, some stock features with tubeframe....

Thank you guys for the positive comments, greatly appreciated!

Work on the car is a tad slower than usual, had some chores around the house to do and I am currently building 2 rollcages for some friends' cars, but I intend to finish the jig on short notice and send her out for coating..

Nice to at least see a bit of a mess in your shop. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

You and MrAnklebiter seem to do incredible work effortlessly without even getting your hair messed up. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/pray.gif)

Well not a major update, but some work on the right side door jig:

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i854.photobucket.com-12210-1294422021.1.jpg)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i854.photobucket.com-12210-1294422021.2.jpg)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i854.photobucket.com-12210-1294422021.3.jpg)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i854.photobucket.com-12210-1294422022.4.jpg)



Some posts earlier I started rebuilding the 928S4 calipers, I since then fell in love with these awesome calipers and I have decided to use them on all 4 corners including the 304 x 32mm discs. They are way cool and suit my desires perfectly...they will give me way more stopping power than I will need, even if I go wild on the HP numbers.



OK, I admit collecting has gotten slightly out of hand, but I got a good deal and couln't pass up on them:



(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i854.photobucket.com-12210-1294422022.5.jpg)

(IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/uploads_offsite/i854.photobucket.com-12210-1294422022.6.jpg)

The discs in the picture are for fitting purposes only, they will be replaced by Zimmermann crossdrilled versions.

I've also had some interesting talks with Elite Transmissions and they can make me exactly what I need: a direct fit sequential six speed to the Subaru boxer, where I can use standard subaru clutch/flywheel parts....and it's light!!!

Mid-engine RWD direct subaru fit sequential 6-speed. Big choice of gear ratio's, final drive ratio's and comes with Salisbury plated limited slip differential.

It uses Subaru flywheel/clutch/throwout bearing/starter/clutch slave cilinder and even the stock subaru transmission side CV joints.
