finally got my IVA test date of 21/02/2012 so today i took the car to MNR to have all pre IVA checks done,as well as mapping at daytuner and basic suspension set up. big thanks to chris and marc at MNR who as usual were very helpful.. they picked up on a few small items i have overlooked but on the whole they were pleased with the build and the look of the car. i have really enjoyed building it and am looking forward to havining it road legal! roll on summer

These are the first proper pictures of the car Ive seen- Looks really smart! Especially liking the Caterhamesque paint scheme!
Good luck with the IVA for the 21st!

Looking good there. Will see it in the flesh sometime soon

Looks great

Well done, good luck with he IVA. Car looks stunning!!


nick205 - 6/2/12 at 09:14 PM

Daniel - that looks superb chap!

Some really nice touches there; the nose air duct and VTEC badging look great.

Not normally a fan of BRG paint schemes, but even that looks good too


RK - 6/2/12 at 09:35 PM

you've done a great job there. Congratulations are in order!

Just saw your pic on S2ki - looks very good and congratulations on finishing the build

I also concur with the post on there regarding voltages - everything is 0-5v on Hondas so you can safely say you'll be repeating it with the fuel sender.


Coopz - 6/2/12 at 09:53 PM

Looks good, Good luck with the IVA and keep us updated


ashg - 6/2/12 at 10:35 PM

looks really nice in those colours but please treat yourself and finish it off with a nice exhaust system


daniel mason - 6/2/12 at 10:46 PM

spoon N1's not your thing ash? lol


franky - 6/2/12 at 10:59 PM

Looks great. How happy is the engine in its new home? making its original power?

come again

i like the idea of it going out the back of the rear tub but just think the manifold needs to come out a bit more from the side panel then you can have a nice straight section into the silencer.

sorry if I sound like im being an ass, its not intended in that way. I can see you have made a real nice job of the car and i think that is why the exhaust is just sticking out like a sore thumb to me.


daniel mason - 6/2/12 at 11:08 PM

no worries ash. no offence taken and your right. the only reason thet manifold is on the car is because i was given it by pwl on here free of charge! best bargain yet. may get one done later in the year if funds allow!

Looks great Daniel. You must be chuffed with it.

Look good, and I like the colour scheme.

BUT, hate the rear lights!


daniel mason - 6/2/12 at 11:25 PM

i changed to these rear light for visibility reasons. with the car being such a dark green (darker than it looks in pics) i fitted the ultra bright LED rear lights. they are much brighter than standard items. thanks for the comments also.


ashg - 6/2/12 at 11:40 PM

Cant knock free


PAUL FISHER - 7/2/12 at 12:19 AM

I do like the lotus livery, looks great


dangerousbrian - 2/3/12 at 06:05 PM
