Thanks...new update is here!!!

Welcome back everyone,

In continuation with the Roll Cage project being performed by the legend himself [email protected]'Brien Motorsports, I have below some more progress shots of the cage...enjoy:

Thank-you to Ronald O'Brien for his incredible work on Gabby. There's a reason why he's the best cage builder in Canada...don't ever settle, get the best...you deserve it!

Enjoy the teaser for next update:

My pleasure JD!

I got another great update for you all!

Along with the cage progress, I had [email protected]'Brien Motorsports do a couple extra jobs for me.

I had him install my ARC Power Steering Cooler, and modify my Custom Carbon Center Console! I also bought MSI Seat Brackets.

Enjoy the pictures:

Man I want to do that but the cost over just doing a 2005-2007 Sti center console is a lot

It looks like an NBR car from that time period

Scuby04STi · 11-20-2020, 01:46 PM

Any idea what you got that thing down to for weight?

Thanks Gigs, the fullest compliment someone can give...I sincerely appreciate it. That's the goal for sure!

Great question Scuby, more on that to come!

Welcome back everyone to my journal,

I'm excited to continue sharing the progress of the work Ronald O'Brien is doing on Gabby. The car continues to come together and I'm really happy to know that the vision I've had in mind all along is becoming a reality.

This vision could only be achieved with the experts to bring this vision into fruition. Thank-you Ronald, and Touge Tuning especially for all the work on Gabby.

In the following pictures, you will see the entire interior got painted...I will admit, I wish we took the car to get the interior professionally painted in a booth, but Ronald felt really compelled to do it himself lol! I'll eventually get it redone when I fully restore the car.
You'll also see we test-fitted the Seibon Dry Carbon Trunk, flocked the dash, and started putting the interior back together.
Enjoy:

Hey everyone and welcome back to my journal!

More progress from [email protected]'Brien Motorsports, we test-fitted one of my Recaro SPA seats and boy do they look incredible!

Also installed the Plastics4Performance Hardcoated Polycarbonate Rear Window to stay true to the motorsport-inspired feel I'm going for. It works perfectly with the Special Edition Seibon Dry Carbon Fiber Trunk, the weight of the entire hatch is EXTREMELY light!
Also we removed the power rear hatch latches to save weight, so if you want to open the trunk, you have to hold it up or it will come crashing down.

We also test-fitted the Voltex Rear Spoiler...it's a thing of beauty <3

The dashboard also got flocked by Ronnie, and it's super pretty!

In case you want to see more pics of the car, my Instagram is: @screamer
Enjoy the pictures and thanks for stopping by:

Hey everyone,

Thanks for checking out my latest update.

Gabby is almost finished with Ronald O'Brien, just tying up some loose ends.

We had a couple exciting little projects on the go, namely modifying my Varis Diffuser and cutting out the upper horizontal section to clear up some space for my Cartek FIA Rain Light to be fully seen.

Enjoy the pictures:

Scuby04STi · 01-10-2021, 10:19 PM

Cage looks great!!!

Why did you remove the old one?

Did you have a weight your trying to undercut?
