I built a few sets of home theatre speakers. The first set were an experiment and they turned out so good that I just kept going. They are about 150cm high with two 8" drivers, a silk dome tweeter and a 6" mid separated internally with a baffle.

I made a circle jig for a cheap Ozito router. Two passes are required to cut a rebate so the drivers sit flush.

I built this fuel rail according to the Simple Digital Systems guide. The rail is governed by a SARD rising rate regulator that you can see mounted to the firewall in the last pic.

Exhaust manifold is coming along after much experimenting with toilet rolls:

Ok so the next big round of work for the car is to delete the CIS fuel injection and replace it with a modern EFI system. I will be installing a MegaSquirt DIY engine control unit to gain full control over the fuelling curve. Why would you want to do that? To add more boost of course! Replacing the KKK turbo is a Garrett GT28R ballbearing unit. Which means I'll need to fabricate a new manifold, oil lines, exhaust and intake plumbing. Whew.

Dad spotted a cheap 1973 911E on the net. Only problem was the car was located in Hervey Bay - about 4 hours drive from Brisbane. Fate had it that he had to go to Hervey Bay for business so we both went and checked the car out. It had been sitting for about 10 years and the wiring was in somewhat of a mess.

Ive decided to change the front fence of my house to give the property a mor modern look from the outside. The plans include extending the existing fence up, building a new set of gates for the driveways, including an awning to match the fence to the house and a change of colour scheme.

I modelled the house in 3D Studio Max 7 to get an idea of what the plans would look like.

Making good progress lately. The current plan of "engine out, new turbo, engine in" has changed to "engine out, everything else out, clean everything, replace everything, paint some stuff, improve some things, put everything back together.

Cleaned up the head, put in a new oil squirter elbow, reset the valve clearances, put on a new camshaft gasket and installed a new water pump.

One of the problems with the car is there is nowhere conveniant to put your wallet or mobile when driving. The standard centre console is made of plastic and had started to crack and show its age so I decided to build a new one. Out of aluminium.

The final product with the new carpet and doors :D

Started fixing up the interior, the door cards were the first to go:

Lots of work has been going on over the weekend. The head came back and is back on the car, and the engine is ready to go. The interior refurb is going great as well, all the carpet has been finished however repco stuffed up and gave me the wrong speakers so I'm waiting for the right ones. Here are some pics:
