Got another 2 parcels today, 1 was a t piece from exact engineering, only ordered yestand other was 2 diff sized p clips, 1 was ok but other not big enough. so heres some pics.
Got a ? for anyone that makes braided brake pipes up, will this fitting seal in a goodridge brake hose, same thread just dont know if it will work????
Small update today, started doin the front braided brake pipes front the master cyls to front susp. turned out not to bad. Same again some p clips along the bulk head and along the chassis legs to hold in place. Then started on the t piece for the rear brakes. didnt get them finshed as didnt have enough ends so ordered more, hopefully be here tues/wed. Once im happy everything is in the right place all the rivets will get drilled out and pipes put in a box until its been painted.
very tidy! Good work.

Is it installed yet? If so i'l go throu your thread again as I may have missed it. I have no idea where the tank is on a calibra,lol
it goes under the spare wheel well, sits between the rear bumper and diff.
Yeap its installed had to make the straps shorter and make brackets on the back panel. Buts sits in the exact place.
Here you go mate

Great work Gaz love it all m8 can't wait to see her finished!! Wish I'd have gone down the 4x4 or rwd route with my rebuild.
Is your car well balanced on that rotating jig? Where have u got the centre of gravity positioned? Im Attempting to build one myself n not sure where to position it.
6 POTS ALL DAY LONG!!!
Thanks, do you have project thread??
Its not bad mate, i can turn it on its side myself and lift it back round, does get alittle heavy when its rite over. I does balance on its own upright, but i put axle stands under just incase im under it. To be honest not sure where the centre of gravity is, just made it the height that my jack could go up to. I mounted it on the car same height as front and rear chassis legs. Hope this helps.
Yeah that helps a lot m8 thanks. Might just try and make it adjustable so I can get right save any hassle turning it on my own.
No project thread but would like to start one, thought about it a few times but it's having the time to keep it update. Might start one tho cos the ideas and advice people give on here is second to none
