There is not too much wiring to do to be honest. I have the standard wiring loom off of the starlet for the engine side of things so its just a case identifying things and hooking them up. Only a few switch's on the dash (lights, indicators, horn, fog, fan etc) and the speedo has its own instructions.

Only need to make a loom for the cabin. Will need to make up a fuse box and relay box in the cabin also but shouldn't be too bad, or at least i hope.:bored:

*** Update ***

Don't worry people, im still going strong on this!!!! ;D Not been an update in a while but trust me i have been cracking on with this.............

Well some parts have started arriving yesterday......

From Jay (UKSC), HKS actuator, ngk leads and autogauge volt gauge. The volt gauge is pretty beat up but its only a temporary one till i decide what gauges to go for and so i can knock up a custom gauge holder.

[Image: 17953_450439215472_587840472_10860208_8293599_n.jpg]

Yesterday i also decided to order up a couple of small slimline sucker fans that will be mounted to front mount radiator to help with cooling. Having the front mount rad means these will probably never get used but for that extra safety factor....

here is the radiator attached to the steel frame.

[Image: 17953_450439175472_587840472_10860205_8253803_n.jpg]

and with the 2x 9' fans roughly in place........going to easily cool it now me thinks. lol

[Image: 17953_450439205472_587840472_10860207_4634493_n.jpg]

Need to modify the radiator frame slightly and add some brackets to fix the fans in place but i have picked up the steel on the way home and will crack on with that tomorrow Planning to add a thermostat switch to the radiator so the fans will switch on when the temp gets to a certain point, although i doubt they will come on much to be honest.

Feels like there is a huge hole in my wallet and all my money is just falling out, then parts keep arriving and i remember where all the money is going.............. Rolleyes

Rear Coilovers arrived today, not long now and i will have coilovers all round which should help out so much. Can't wait to get rid of the stupid mini rubber dohnut suspension setup. The coilovers look quite cute but should do the job a treat Big Grin

[Image: 17953_452563610472_587840472_10873271_4828488_n.jpg]

With the springs i bought before......

[Image: 17953_452563630472_587840472_10873272_2522578_n.jpg]

And roughly placed on the huge brackets i have

[Image: 17953_452563640472_587840472_10873273_105625_n.jpg]

I just need to sorce some imperial bolts to fix the coilovers in place and i should be well away.

I also have my name down on a group buy on the starlet club for a custom made inlet manifold, larger throttle body, uprated fuel rail and fpr. This is made by a company called race tech and they are amazing at what they do. Costing me about £650 but going to be well worth it and will look sooooooo nice! will be arriving late feb with any luck.

Saturday i drove all the way to Barton on sea, Weston super maye and picked up my LSD gearbox, 45k on it and looks mint! Picked this up for £200 which was a complete bargain. should help me get the power down better and im sure will be worth every penny. Means the driveshafts will be equal length now as well which will look neater.

Also a member from UKSC has managed to find a company that had a mountain of old fire extinguishers lying about and have sold me 2 alloy 5kg ones for £5 each, just waiting on them now but should be here next week. This will make for an interesting fuel tank ;D

Have a adjustable cam pulley coming from the states as well and is probably sat in the customs office as we speak.

Hopefully if the gearbox gets fitted and these are fitted in the next few weeks i can get the remaining chassis parts laser cut and then its a case of get the driveshafts made up and then start connecting the engine wiring, cooloing, cables and its almost there as far as starting her up!!!!!

Then come all the boring IVA ****............. :cursing:

As always people i would love to hear your comments Big Grin

*** Update ***

Well got up to TGT and got a little done today, not much but im happy Smile

First had a little look at the rear suspension and got the old stuff off and in the bin Big Grin and then the new sexy coilovers on and roughly offered up. Need to get some more bits laser cut to create a proper mounting point for the upper bracekts but it looks so much better with these on there.

old setup.....

Then a member of UKSC kindly came down to deliver the 2x5kg fire extinguishers that i bought. Wouldn't of been able to get them without all the help he put in and i am truelly gratefull.

Also managed to get the centre consol offered into the car and the old handbrake gabbins ground off. and then the front radiator frame welded onto the buggy. Plan is to cut the rounded part off the nosecone and then custom make a new piece that will extend down and round the radiator. Should hopefully make it look alot meaner at the front.

Just as TGT where clossing up i managed to get the buggy rolled out into the light to get some pics of it outside. When i stand back and look at it outside it just looks imense! I can't wait to get this thing done and on the road Big Grin

Here are some better pics (sorry about the quality of some of them) of the Demon. You can really appreciate how insane this thing is going to be.
