Edwin,

Let me get it for you. The paint shop used the Nissan alpine white paint code. However they simply asked the shop to NOT mix any yellow like the original code calls for. So this is all white. I will see if they made a specific code for it but otherwise it's simply Nissan alpine white without the yellow in the mix.

Thanks! I have to drop some stuff off for the painter soon so I should have the code off the pint he just bought.

Window brackets were a serious PITA!

And now for the 2nd rendition of the cage......

i need more money......lol

awesome stuff man

scottie · 02-15-2012, 03:50 PM

Thanks guys! There are some incredible builds on here. My hope is this inspires others to mod their car properly no matter how big or small.

So to avoid any confusion from the previous pics, the cage is different today. The reason being the old cage did NOT meet D1, NASA and other circuit racing based rules. Here is de/re-construction.

scottie · 02-15-2012, 04:03 PM

My builder based it off the minimum requirements for D1 (ER cage). It was out determination that the side impact was extremely important due to the FRP Origin doors wouldnt stop a Playskool tricycle, thus the back portion was "X" to take impact and transfer to the back for additional protection. And a few gussets in various places for piece of mind.

I never looked at them like that before. Now Im gonna crack up every time I use them. I'll have to "titty-twist" it to produce salt or pepper lol.

Couple more of the ebrake. The powdercoat is immaculate.

Big Zee · 02-17-2012, 12:45 PM

@ Edwin562: Another pure and badass white is Toyota Supra White. Color Code 040. it is pure white, no yellows, or off whites.

Big Zee · 02-17-2012, 12:46 PM

Beautiful build so far dude! when is your estimated date for completion ?

Its up in the air. Depends on how much time I can spare between sales (my funding source), the girl and whatever else takes me away from weekend working. The hardest part for me is going to be wiring. EVERYTHING will get new wires, connectors, etc... This will be my first full chassis harness so I need to put most of interior in to figure out where I am going to route the harness, mount the fuse box and the ARC switch panel.

So to answer your question...... I dont know

bftII40 · 02-17-2012, 01:12 PM

blew my mind with what you did with the Fast Intake Manifold, love that color scheme!

scottie · 02-26-2012, 11:36 AM

Time to make final mock up of where items will mount in engine bay before I pull motor one last time to put wire harness and accessories on.

So much work ahead
