Cheers guys! Done a little over Xmas, iv now got steering column, pedal box, servo and master cylinders fitted! I doubt il get chance now to post pics or do any more until the new year as I'm going away until the 4th.

Pedal box, column, wiper motor, vin plate and brake servo final fitted Dash test fitting and more trimming Seat and wheel Next is to finisht he sump and oil pic up, sit down and make a list of bits i need to final fit the engine, get it bolted in and pray to god i find the money to buy the clutch ASAP!
You sneaked Bryn into your workshop paul , looking at the interiors of previous comp cars i'm sure he's there.
Top quality workmanship! Love the fit and finish of everything you have done so far. Good luck with the rest of the build mate.
Cheers guys! Bit of an update, been busy the last 3 days. Got a Dymo to do sticker lables for the switchs, but it looks poo so iv borrowed a Brother lable printer. This is what it looks like with Dymo, prety poo, not to mention how crooked they are!! The Brother is much better, prints smaller so i dont have to abbreviate so much and its black print on white back, so will be better in the dusk to see. Converted the N/A sump to turbo buy getting a -10 fitting welded in for turbo oil return. Finished the oil pick up and baffle plate sump finished with dash of paint Sump fitted Engine in da hole Tight!!! New Japspeed 350z alloy rad, chopping and modding the 350gt fans to fit! Plenty of clearance with out the fans on, not so easy with the fans!! So i had to trim loads of the plastic front end to move the rad forword so it all fitted!! Moved forword and fans fitted, also very tight!! Gear stick extension perfect thanks to Mr Stevos fabrications and my mesurments Japspeed 1jz top mount conversion Vband down pipe fits perfect with out a mod needed Oh, another Jz conversion going on at camp Falken, this is Matt Carters s14.5 going 1jz vvti with HKS30/37! You can see how much more room you have in an S-Body for the conversion!! Started mocking up some pipe work! It probs going to poke out the bonnet a little but i dont want to comprimise on the radious of the bend and there is no way it can go down! Mocking up cooler locations Iv got a 100mm intercooler to go between the crash bar and the coolers, currenty there is only a 90mm gap, but trimming the bar and moving the coolers will see it in there no problem. So thats it for now, waiting on a few bits to turn up now and some things to sell, bank is empty!!!
Hhmmmm 2 x 1jz conversion, 1x2jz conversion. Need to Convince the others it's the way of the jz Looking good
