My DR1400 project started today

They are the billet DR1300 DBB's but due to their extra HP potential, Matt renamed them to DR1400DBB's. He hasn't updated the website yet but I believe mine (pictured) are the 1st ever set and these arrived at DR around 25th January.

I'll try to get as many taken as possible, but bear in mind I am over 30 miles away from my car.

i still think you're off your rocker.

Well, we have had a little bit of time slippage to the project mainly due to a delay in the roll cage arriving on time. In the end, the guy I bought it from saved the day by getting it freight shipped from his work and without his help, we would be even further behind now.

The car is pretty much totally stripped and the cage has been loosely fitted but we need to weld a plate on underneath the drivers foot well and underseal.

So the jobs for next week are:

• weld in plate
  final fitting of roll cage
  fit dash
  relocate pillar mounted gauges
  relocate defi link meter
  relocate EDFC
  Strip the heads and send off for measuring
  refit centre console
  Strip stroker short block and reassemble with new clutch
  Build new main loom

Although there was a month of slack built into the project, we need to make up the couple of weeks we have lost to preserve that 1 month buffer for the unforeseen stuff.

This is where we are parts wise.
