I actually don't mind doing some of this custom fab stuff. I would of done shop/tech a/furnishing except you have to do what the teachers want not what may actually be of benefit to you.

The only thing that annoyed me is that i don't think i stopped all the CF dust. I'm not sure if i inhaled any but if i did it wasn't much and hopefully it won't kill me...seriously.

i really cant wait till the universal diff mount comes back into stock at RCM.

Who knows i might just use the CD mount from my STe as it will give the car a lower stance and might look a little cleaner.

Now i have a few questions.

1) I am going to try and change some of the screws to metric as i hate imperial. So should i use countersunk screws and countersink them or should i use button head screws. ATM i don't think i need to have the upper plate completely flat so button head screws might work but i was wanting some other peoples opinions on this matter.

2) i want this to handle well when i finish it so i have 2 possible set ups.
1) mount the batteries on the side plates/wings and use a CD mount that has the motor on the same level as the CD.(like normal BL conversion mounts. (lower CoG)
2) mount the batteries on the upper plate and have a CD mount that has the motor above the CD. (higher CoG but closer to centreline of chassis)

3) should i reinforce the lower chassis plate with some 6061-t6 2.5mm aluminium?

4) should i use a CD or should i try and use a proper tranny like an e-revo/e-maxx one?

i think that's it for now but i'm sure i'll have more soon.
