Below is one of the many sketches of ideas that probably will not be used but provide another step to the final design. This one is a box to protect (from dust, burning rubber etc) the fuel system as there is no floor at the rear of the car.

At the same time the body, frame and roll bar all had to be placed in the best positions to accommodate everything in such a small car's confined spaces.

We started full steam ahead to get the show car ready and worry about the race car after the show. The fuel system had been made one year previously and shown in the Tokyo Show but since that time Kinokuni developed a collector tank with an in tank Bosch pump so it was back to redesign the layout plus we realized the rear suspension hoops left no space for the design of 1 year ago. System number 3 should be a go.

So out with the wires again to get the basic line layout.

More patience bending the pipes.

BUT! Due to the expected pump vibrations we added a Kevlar/Teflon and a s/s braided flex line and also to show Kinokuni's products.

A CAD drawing then inputted into the brake press bender again at Kawai Works for another fuel pump and filter mount and roll bar gussets.

December
In such a small car space is always going to be a problem so many configurations were discussed. Within the engine bay lines and pipe positions took a lot of time.
The race car was taken back to Stacked's garage for final finishing on Dec. 19th.

January 2015
So much midnight oil burnt by many people and the car is at last literally slid into the Kinokuni Tokyo Show booth.

With only a 50mm ride height the car was VERY difficult to slide into the pre-cut wall. That wrapped titanium exhaust caused itchy skin for weeks for the person who volunteered for the job.
MSD ignition has been set up to provide a powerful spark when the turbo is on boost.

The crew that helped put the show car together lined up at the end of the show just before the booth was torn down.

May 2015
We are again back on track with the final push to have the race car on the track testing our company's products.
Final welding of chassis, roll bar, paint plus more CAD brackets from Kawai Works then it's off to Kinokuni for the plumbing, new dash and final tune before a track day.
June
The weather in June is getting humid and hot and the car has the extra roll bar pipes welded in. The interior is well on the way with great looking foot plates and console.
Seats are in place so getting ready for another strip down for final chassis paint.

These are too nice to put your feet on but perfect for getting your feet to pedal height.

The team deep in thought on the basic wiring layout.
