-7" android display for full ecu control/gauges
Things I had sitting at home to put in/on the car
:
-Nitrac brake discs (cryogenically frozen)
-Carbotech XP8 brake pads
-ATE Super Blue brake fluid
-Curley Motorsport bucket seat
-OMP Targa sude 330mm steering wheel
-Daikei gold steering wheel bolts
-5 point harness
-Broadway mirror
-Neo chrome finish gearknob
Things that were "wrong" with the car
-The zip on the hood broke, so it was replaced with a perspex screen that meant the hood couldn't fold down
-There were speakers but nothing to drive them
-Loose bits of trim needed clips replacing
-Dirty carpet and seats
-Cigarette lighter socket didn't work
-The tablet could only speak to the ECU or charge
Plans
-Drive the prarrie canoe out of it
-Oil pressure and temp senders to connect to MS and get readouts on the tablet
-Adjustable, rose-jointed droplinks to remove the pre-load from the ARB
-Roll cage
-HEL stainless hoses
-Possibly do a round of TA with my friend who I used to crew with and photograph for. He used to have a very nice Mini that he could pedal like a loon, and now has a K20 EG.
