new project omega

[omegapioneer]

Hi all just getting started with sorting out a new build. So far I have sourced a good solid car, doors, bonnet, bootlid, wings, prodrive spoiler, full irmscher kit twin rear exhaust box, my main trouble was I could only get a cdx diesel manual but I am going to build it to v6 elite. Already have had it media blasted round the front along sills rear arches and rear panel, all rear suspension arms frame and front suspension calipers hubs etc  all now treated with anti corrosion zinc based primer and  then painted in black. Have sourced a good 3.2 elite loom but want to check it out and rewrap before  fitting it in car. Still have to change fuel lines fuel tank etc. Have new front and rear shocks and new irmscher springs to install on the rebuild.  Awaiting the rolling shell going to get painted so I can begin reassembly.  So anybody any thiughts on things I should do while stripped out. Thanks Eric

Wow. 

I would have widened and adapted the engine bay for a V8 given the trouble you have gone to.

That will be a nice car when you have finished it.

Actually I had a 4.0 v8 from a ls400 to put in but I loked into trying to get insurance quotes for it and some wouldn't quote at all and the rest were alot more, coupled to the idea of the car having 300 hp a lsd and no tc I was worrying about the wife putting it through the first hedge backwards. Would have been a bit of fun though.
