Storm grey progress blog *Supreme motorsport development car*

[R27WTF]

Here is a few pics of the car all finished up before fitting all the panels up

The body shop also sorted all of the carbon front end, roof and diffuser and they have come out really nice!

The car then made it back to my workshop where I got all the panels back on and the roof bonded into place

All parts are back on with all new hardware which is black stainless steel so should last a lifetime.

Iv also had a chance to collect the block from the machine shop and had it aqua blasted ready to put the core plugs back in and get painted before it gets rebuilt back up.

I’m now waiting on some parts to arrive to carry on.

Like I didn’t have enough on with work and trying to get the car built, Iv managed to get the new epoxy floors down and start to give the place a lick of paint to freshen up.

We have some new cabinets arriving shortly and some new machines which will help us make more in house [emoji41]

Excuse the mess but still a work in progress over the next few days we should be back to normal.

Superb work @R27WTF

I take it this is your workshop (very clean btw) and you’re doing the work yourself?

And looks like there is a nice Meggy in the back ground - is that yours also?

Wicked build. I also have a sabelt wheel with cup racer boss, do you know if there is a way to ge the auto cancel indicators working? I've got Volantech buttons coming for cruise and horn but would like the indicators to auto cancel too. Ive just bought my meglio and also has a tylah motorsport rear cage, brilliant bit of kit!

There isn’t a way due to how it bolts on sorry it’s also a pain with the volantech buttons better off selling the boss and getting an omp one instead tbh

I love the CF diffuser and roof. The roof was very high on my want list to minimize the weight up high. Any idea how much weight you saved with it?

Only 2-3kg nothing major really.

I have done it more as the car is going to be used as demo car for us really so it’s an eye catcher

Little update the rear beam is ready to go off for powdercoating then to be painted after

I went with the pure motorsport strengthening kit, rear spherical bearings and our own metal plate down the centre

I have fitted some spherical bearings into the lower arm ready to go on

Next was time to get the block masked, painted and oil jets removed

I have spoken to nuke performance who supply us with our surge tanks we sell and they will be making a custom one for us with all black fittings and an autosport Electrical connection on to match the rest of the wiring in the car

I decided as everything is all reconditioned or new I wanted all new heat shields too to keep it clean

Another nice delivery came this week a cup racer sadev and shafts

I have ordered a custom set of full carbon seats from Corbeau with our logos on and custom cushions these should be here soon.

Suspension has been ordered too. I have a batch of swivel hubs I need to strip and aqua blast which il try and do this week all being well

that looks amazing mate, rear beam looks decent. I bet that gearbox set you back a pretty penny! What else is needed to fit?

Thanks mate.

I have the full cup racer set up on the front with the extended track rod ends, ee brackets and I have made adjustable drop links so will make shorter ones to use anti rotation links

Looking fantastic. Going to be the best built Mk3 in the UK i’d imagine.

This is going to look amazing, and you're spending a few quid!
I've subscribed as there a lots of nice touches that I'm going to take inspiration from...

Managed to get all the brake line in and fitted. I make all these in house so managed to get them exactly how I wanted.

All been clipped with plastic P clips and black stainless steel rivets.

I have the fuel tank a good clean too

Some more delivery’s have been arriving almost there with the purchases and can crack on getting it built up

Iv never liked the plastic slam panel so decided to make a 8mm ally one this will make it much easier to mount my custom radiator up to.

This is the first prototype all seems to fit and work well

We now have full access to some pretty decent equipment so will be making a range of new parts soon

Me

Next up will be to get the engine built just a few last bits I’m waiting on from Renault and once they arrive will be good to go.

Not much to up date really work it super busy with building a few clios.

The carbon door cards are now on along with test fitting of our updated seat mounts that let you sit more central to the steering wheel.

Got the dash cut In before it was removed to be sent off for flocking.

We have been working behind the scenes a little and have now got our own supercharger brackets that we will be running along with a proper 343mm big brake kit to run ap racing calipers.

Now for just some arty farty pics now the car is on the ramp ready to get started with putting stuff back on it!
