Nothing spectacular this time...just some printed rivets for the roolhoop, still amazed how small you can print



A bit more printing, just to lazy for cleanup and sanding/drilling all the holes in whitemetal parts.



Sorry if pictures don't work, still have to update my server but I'm really bad/lazy at those computerthings...

Hi,

I love the monocoque and the exhaust!

I could need some help from someone who has that kit in his stash. Under step8 there is some heatshield that goes under the exhaust but my kit missed all the metal stickers. Could someone take a photo or better a scan of it so I can form a new one. Also the decals under the coolers and turbo would be great.

Making new suspension parts.



And some more.



Working on the front suspension and cutting pieces for easier painting and sandblasting.



Parts attached.



Drive shafts are also scratchbuilt.
Building the rear suspension with some many new parts was extremely difficult just to learn..............



...I should have added the sideplates before building the whole suspension

But no problem on the real car the plates are two pieces and I will do the same, like here....:




One problem you should be aware of when building the kit is that there are some problem with the turbo inlet and cooler



Everything behind the red line needs to be cut off. And the green line shows the tube from the cooler needs to be cut and moved to the front...

Really super good work. Love the 3D printing bits.
