Foam trimmed and tow strap mounted with Grade 8 bolts and fasteners
Finished product with loose ziptie hold strap from flapping our dragging
Schroth rallye 4 ASM harness. SFI and DOT rated. Street legal and legal for use in NASA HPDE for use with factory seats .

Another look at the belts mounted but not pulled right yet
Finished product of the day's work.

You must have some awesome friends with awesome camera equipment lol. You could make a movie.
Looking at those pictures that SI is responding very well. With some negative camber I imagine that sucker will hug the road good. I was so mesmerized by your pictures and videos I didn't see if you had already got an suspension system for the car yet or is that in the future?

I have swift Spec R springs right now with factory dampers. They are working really good so far. I am waiting on coils until I can run under a 2:10 with just springs and some camber.
Then I plan to get the Motons that are currently in development.

Thanks all the photos except the track ones were taken with my iPhone by me. The night photos were taken by me with my go-pro hero 4 black edition.

Re: Theia 2015 Si track/dd build
So been a while since an update. Had someone panic on the freeway and cut me off while I was in the fast lane no where to go. Car got messed up in the front but no actual structure damage , just cosmetic and replaced rad support. Luckily my friend owns a body shop and they do awesome work. Could not even tell after I got it back. They even re-installed my tow strap for me.
Top is after repair bottom is time of accident. I was at full lock when I hit them so my frame missed it was all the hood , headlight and fender who to the impact.
The the Porterfield R4 pads on and new centric rotors . The pads stop crazy good. Can't wait to try them on the track.

Great build. Curious to know why you did not wait for the turbo SI to come out?
DO you prefer the looks of the 15' > 16' or just not interested in the turbo?
Keep updating.
