    Can't believe I've only just looked through this properly - super jealous of your car and how much progress you've made in such a small space of time. It looks incredible. Massive achievement. Hoping to see it in person soon - maybe DOVW?

    How/what exactly did you have to do to get the Porsche seats in - I have porsche seats with porsche subframes and also MK1 subframes ready to go - I just haven't really thought to much about how I was going to do it.

    i'll throw up some shots of how i've welded up the bases.

    essentially its a bracket made out of steel angle + using the original mk1 mounting points which then bolts to the porsche seats.

    quite simple yet effective and surprisingly 'sleek'

    Bummer you aren't making it to GAD was really looking forward to seeing this!

    I've got one of those foam ram air filter things. It's sitting in the garage surplus to my needs. Want it for nothing? Happy to give it to you if it's any use as a spare or something?

    coil + ICM

    After changing over to an electronic fuel pump, I was having some issues with fuel pressure/delivery to the carbs



    I picked up a fuel pressure reg and gauge



    now running a consistent ~3-3.5psi as opposed to 6psi





    and how the cars currently sitting

    Have you posted this to any European forums? When I was over in the UK chatting to people at shows they were saying how well known Australia is for epic swallow tails - and here's another example! I reckon you'd get so much envy posting this to countries where they salt the roads!
