are you routing the moton canister lines up thru the engine bay then into the rear of the cab?
it looks like a connection for tranny cooler? where would that be mounted?

Yes, that's the plan for now. I am trying to find out if there is a rule that would prevent this (mounting the canisters in the cockpit).

The tranny cooler will be mounted on the side of the tranny. Will share photos once installed.

The seams are welded for reinforcement but there are no additional brackets. What do you mean with brackets?

Going E-Throttle.... Nice. What are you using in the Engine bay for the actuator?

The throttlebody from my 997 C4S is a direct fit.

That's great... I have been thinking about going E-Throttle as well, especially for idle but have other issues to contend with..

Are you going to duct air to your trans cooler? With the under-tray it's going to get toasty.

I run one also (trans under tray and trans cooler), and needed to increase cooling to trans cooler because temps continued to rise with pump on, on hot days. I have flat panel for rear seat area and cooler is mounted under that with naca duct in rear quarter window ducting air to cooler. I cold post pic if you'd like, however, don't have immediate access to car.

There is ducting in the bottom panelling that channels air into the shifter tunnel. I think should be adequate...?

Must be an optical illusion, cause it feels like I can see whats below. Looks different from their website.
Looked like an additional brace.

The sterling-Euro rate is killing me...so I decided to make the Motec stuff my self. I mean, how hard can it be?









The brake and clutch fluid reservoir found it's place. I also have all the hoses and fittings etc. so install those too to make sure I have enough brackets etc.

Did some more plumbing today. The airjack system is all hooked up now and so is the fire suppression system.
These plastic zip tie holders are an awesome product! Just drill a 6mm hole and tap the holder into it. Holds like crazy and easy to replace the zip tie or the whole thing.

I also installed the shifter and I gotta say that it is the best feeling shifter in any car I've ever had. Ultra short throws and mad precision!

My friend spent some time fabbing brackets for the Motec display and keypad from aluminium. Will post pictures once they're ready.

All in all the outfitting is going quite well now. Almost there.
