R.Spec's Gt35r Ej25 Supercar Killer

[R.Spec]

Well my 818s finally got here! Ordered it back in May and it was completed August 20th. But I did not have the funds ready for it, so I gave that kit away. My new completion date became November 22nd. Got that paid for and it arrived here at my shop on January 1st! Kinda an epic new years .

Anyhow plans for the car:

• Ej25 Block and Heads
• Forged Mahle 8.5:1 CR 2618 Alloy Pistons
• Forged Manley H Tuff Rods
• BC Titanium Springs and Retainers
• Garrett Gt35R with a tial 0.63 Hotside so that it doesn't hit super hard and break the tires that loose
• Fujitsubo Equal Length Exhaust Header
• Tri-Tip Steak Turboback Custom Exhaust ( lol )
• Stock wrx 5 Speed tranny for now
• Stock 02-03 Ecu running Carberry with antilag tuned by Me
• 18x9.5 Rota Grid wheels in the back with hoosier r6's
• 17x8 Rota Grid wheels in the front with some other tire
• Stoptech Big Brake Kit in the front
• 2 Pot Brakes in the rear
• Momo Carbon Kevlar Acropolis seats with Takata Harnesses

Well the truck showed up and the driver was very friendly, cracking jokes and helping out constantly. We unloaded the 818 and put it in the shop next door on some jack stands. The only thing I noticed so far is that the fiberglass is super thin and cracked right where one of the vents are on the top drivers side of the humped back piece. (lol shoulda just taken a picture) Also the vinyl dash had rips and holes in it

Anyways I unboxed most all the parts, started putting the suspension together. Could barely slide the coil over sleeve over one strut, it ripped off all the paint and I was super mad. I felt like the machining tolerance was off. Then I took inventory of most everything. I feel like I am missing like all of the brake stuff but it said it was in the kit. All i got was the proportioning valve and the lines. AND HOLY CRAP THERE IS A LOT OF ALUMINUM. Anyone have a rivet gun recommendation? How long is the aluminum riveting part going to take me?

Here are some pictures.
