Citigos come with 14" and 15", with a 16" option on the Sport models.

We are going to run 16" rims.

    Cheers; I was right, for certain values of "right" that is.

    Well if you put enough options out there, one is bound to be right! :p

    Well the driveshafts are done and on the way.

    Front brakes are here (310mm Willwoods I took from the Corrado I had) which will fit inside 16" rims.

    Rear brakes have been custom made via a contact of Jabbasport due to requirements of size/hub.

     

    So hopefully will see it coming together over the next few weeks.

     

    I need to sort the seats as I took the Tillet Carbon Buckets with blue flashes for my Yeti.

    They were originally for my Fabia VRS SE anyway, hence the blue flashes.

    They look better in a Race Blue car. :D

     

    But other than that and the electrics we seem to be getting closer.

     

     

     

     

    Next update will include pictures...

    You forgot the Roomster and the Santa Pod Fantasy Green Fabia. :D

    Although truth be known the latter is really a group thing and I do very little there...

    He gets up early and practices!

     

    Thank you, thank you! I'll be here all week!

    The whole design philosophy has been to make this thing still look like a standard CitiGo apart from details. So it uses standard size wheels, and the Wilwoods should fit an Up! given the right caliper brackets.

     

    Having said that, unless you're also running a seriously uprated engine, do you actually need the brake upgrade?

    Well yes of course with the right bracket but I was more enquiring wether or not the standard bracket could be used.

    and of course! everyone likes increased brake performance! :P

    Just had a catch up on this, really coming along now!!! Can't wait to see the videos of it underway

    Must be update day... I've just done the Yeti and GT-R thread. :)

     

    Anyway,

    (Apologoes for the lack of pictures as I am stuck at the PC currently.)

     

    Driveshafts and prop back and fitted.

    Bulk of wiring done, but still needs wrapping up once they are sure it all fits correctly and won't pull under strain.

    ECU in and connected via wires to all the engine bits.

     

    Back brakes still three weeks away as they are custom and taking a bit of time.

     

    So fingers crossed, three or four weeks to tidy wiring and wrap it, back brakes arrive and there should not be a huge amount left.

     

    Other than the fact I forgot to choose what seats and harnesses I want. :D
