SVA tomorrow at Mitcham 9am

Well, all prepared (as well as I can be!)
I did a last minute job today and that was to make a plate and leatherette that covered the buttons on my veypor dash. This was because of some of you failing on the ability to change away from the speedo reading.
I've measured my speedo against my sat nav and it seems spot on, so hopefully I won't need to do any adjustments!
The only two worries I have are noise and emmissions.
The emissions as I have only a borrowed map and my wideband to go by and noise, as I only have a cheap noise meter.
Thanks to everyone who either sent me stuff, made stuff (F.O.C.) etc and for all the help with questions!

You know who you are!

Good luck Martin. Enjoy the day.

Noise and emmisions are the 2 things you can't be sure of untill the test.

Failed......., but not too bad!

Projections, wants grills to the rear/sides and another grill/barrier under the passenger dash.
A bit too much overkill.
Shock absorbers need a bit of trim around the top edge.
Fire extinguisher failed on projections even though it is behind my seats!
My stick on/cable tied side indicators not good enough to be secure. Suggested I screw them but that would go through the led circuit board. So I need some torpedo types to go on the side rail.
Nose needs some edge trim inside where the fibreglass ends.
And last, I need a new silencer!
103.2dbA at 8800 rpm

Thanks to Taylor R1 and his map, the car sailed through emissions.
Everything else spot on including the brakes.

The best news was the weight..........480Kg!!!!

And I weighed myself on the weigh bridge too.
Christmas I weighed 105KG
Now I only weigh 90kg
So now the car will go faster!
