Well guys, it has arrived! Not in one piece however, but MANY! My dad and I have some work to do before this thing gets on the road!

Carbon Fiber Tillett seats (these things are insanely comfy, even though they don't look it)



Just resting in, wanted to see how they look



EJ25





CF wing



Sparco quick release hub. Here's me test fitting the seats.

I can't believe I haven't found this thread until now

Jaywood; your ability to build the coolest crap r3v has ever seen is unmatched. BRB, gonna go through every page of this build thread

Pretty sure the TR is parked in the S2S muffler welding bay?

Tires. Tires will be 315/30/18 rear, 275/35/18 front Toyo R888's. Here's a comparison pic of the 315 and a 205.



"Mounted" with no wheels, just test looking



Making seat brackets....







Plywood as the base for test-fitting purposes only.





The welds...I didn't weld all the way to the edge because I needed to slot the holes for more adjustability. I didn't want to be tightening a nut onto a bead.



I'll be making another pair tomorrow and powdercoating them both satin black.

So. Cool.

Please continue...
