D-Turbo Rallycross/Track Car Project

[Jtrigga]

So for a while me and my mate wanted to have a project track car we wanted something different to what everyone else uses we knew we wanted diesel I've had my d-turbo for 4 years now so I know them quite well so we bought a green d-turbo for £150





This is when we got it, it had done 189,000 so only just run in . It drove really well very smooth and wouldnt think it had done anywhere near that milage drove better than mine.



Currently on a lucas setup which will be changed also running a k14 so we are going to abuse it with the current setup then go for big power .



So we starting to strip it ready to save weight then we found that it starting weight saving it self



Was quite bad but nothing that couldnt be sorted. The only damage to the car was a dent in the wing i bashed it out it didnt have to perfect as it was going to be used on track so is going to take a few knocks.



With all the interior out, next the windows where taken out as we are going to be making perspex windows for the rear windows and front 2
The back window was such a pain we had to put the window through then put off all the seal with a knife.





Next we had to get it ready for painting so a bit of sanding down nothing amazing and then within a few hours it was ready to paint.









We decided to smooth the boot as it was easier it didnt come out too bad the indicators where smoothed off the wings aswell.

So we started painting this is how it came out.













So thats how we left it last night just leaving a few days to dry before we flat it down and mop it up, then we can start on the fun parts of the car.
