My build so far
Wolf1e - 1/9/15 at 10:07 PM

Hi guys thought I would show how far I have got with my indy r so far with a few pics.

I will try and update as i go

Ordered Aug last year

Danny had to come all the way down to Kent to my house to pick up my engine so they could make the engine and g/box mounts as I wanted to use the mk3 mazda mx5 g/box as this uses the same bellhousing pattern as the MZR LF/duratec engine.



Delivered Oct 2014



This is from Jan to April this year













































Really enjoying it so far. I'll post some more pics later.

Regards
Ian

Looks great! Looking forward to seeing updates on your progress.

Like the colours looks very tidy, great job.

That looks great - the care going into this build is something else!!

Good luck with the rest of it - keep us updated.

Really really tidy, love the colour.

Something for discussion perhaps . Are you planning to leave the brake pipes zip tied to the chassis like that? (I know a lot of builders do this)

I am always concerned when I see soft copper clamped to hard steel, with vibration and dirt a failure is quite probable.

For piece of mind I would at the very least slip a piece of rubber pipe over the copper to isolate it from the chassis. Ideally nice P-clips with suitable chassis brackets would be the perfect solution but kit manufacrturers dont seem to weld suitable lugs on for this...

Hi guys

Sorry for the big delay in updating the build, been a little busy with my house, new job etc.

The build is coming along nicely now, I am a bit behind on updating but will do my best to catch up to whether I am with the build so far. I've had a really struggle for some reason with uploading photos to my photos. For some reason it keeps saying unsupported format. Anyway I've found another way

I'll do my usual photo diary and go from there. Any questions or concerns are welcome.

Regards
Wolfie


















































As you can see it's coming along nicely

Nice one Wolf1e, another MK in Kent, looking forward to seeing you at track days at Lydden Hill and Brands this summer.


CosKev3 - 22/2/16 at 12:24 PM

Looks really nice

Are you IVA'ing it,if so are there level floats available for those brake fluid resevoirs?


Wolf1e - 22/2/16 at 01:38 PM

LBMEFM: Can't wait to get it done and track it mate.

CosKev3: yes I'm iva'ing. I have managed to get some level sensor caps from cbs which fit nicely.
