Nice headliner Mike.
Did you get to fix your non-fitting-again doors?
Are you in MI?

This past week(s) have been a hard push to finish up putting the car back together. Wife said: finish it so you can start the next project (kitchen) - and I said "Yes, ma'am".
Other than the headliner install the only other thing of note was the underbody aluminum/splitter/diffuser. I captured some vid/pics of it, but since I did things very differently than a typical install -don't know how useful it will be to anyone. Because I'm running the race splitter out front and have boxed in the passage to the radiator I did not install the vented aluminum sheet provided by FFR up front. Instead I installed it out back under the engine to smooth the transition to the diffuser. I have the option of turning up one or more of the vents if I need more air into the engine bay. I also had to make some relief cuts for the twin scroll (OEM) header, so it's not a totally flat under-car.
WP_20170716_13_47_29_Pro.jpg
Then I used the original back aluminum sheet from FFR up front to close out the splitter to under the battery tray. Apparently I do things backwards all the time...
Regardless, after a quick respray of plasti-dip to clean up the body work modifications here it is -don't have a name yet, but I'm really happy with how it looks. I just sent the first engine tune log out for review, so as long as everything looks good there I should be able to get it on the road for some shake down drives soon.

Seeing your long front splitter, I was surprised to see your rear diffuser is very pushed inside. Don't want to stick it out more?

I thought about having more diffuser stick out, but I was a bit limited with the aluminum sheet I had on hand. This is the absolute limit I have and still have a tiny bit of overlap between the diffuser & under tray. And the diffuser matches up well with the body line of the rear cover. I kind of like it this way, seem a bit more 'old school' race car, rather than the current Aston Martin Super Diffuser look. And I think I have enough wing to balance the splitter.
And I just got back from a quick lap. Whoa (just like Neo). The '207 is a whole 'nother animal. So smooth & quiet. Even with the not muffled exhaust (just a resonator) it's much quieter than the last set up that had a cat & muffler (melon launcher). I'm a fan! The turbo & bypass valve noise are much louder than the exhaust note.

Just got back from 2 weeks of vacation (spent obsessing about the car... not!). I made a few changes and fixes:
-Updated ECU map that fixes AVCS activation
-Fixed alternator belt squeak (tensioner had gotten tres loose)
-Fixed exposure setting on GoPro (low light is not your friend)
-Added an external mic near the exhaust pipe (sound is definitely not diesel anymore)
new video from same test loop:
Things to fix:
-Alignment is still hot garbage
-Oil temp sensor isn't working, need to replace

What a difference having a correct alignment makes to drivability. The rear was SUPER out of spec initially -and after installing new wheels I had to pull the knuckles in, so I eyeballed it and it was nicer to drive (a lot less tramlining).
Just got an actual alignment done, and the drive home was great -tracks perfectly straight and doesn't get upset by bumps at all.
Sunday is the first baptism, test & tune day with the local autocross club - so excited!

So true!
The front adjusters were bottomed out (and I was lazy -didn't want to cut them), so front camber sucks. I'll be fixing that in the future.
The rear was fine, the adjustable links made it easy to set up. And it's so nice to finally have the steering wheel perfectly centered... could never quite get it perfect on my own.

When discussing the setup we knew the front was limited. With the large front to rear imbalance I expect the car to trend to understeer. I'm ok with that for now as I have no experience driving a RWD car at all. I'd rather deal with push than oversteer at this point, but this isn't the final alignment.
Once the front is sorted I'll be on the rack again, and we will have a better front to rear balance. And since Wayne is the definition or race car -and race driver I expect that balance to be -3 up front and -2.8 in back

Unfortunately it's a short one. I completed 1 run and did not post a time because of an off-track (my fault -went outside a gate) and then had to park the car. Fuel leak with gasoline smell in the passenger compartment and actual fuel on the belly pan under the engine.
Car with war paint:
WP_20170820_09_23_33_Pro.jpg
To add insult to injury, the GoPro was set to camera not video. LAME.
It was a great day though!
The car drive perfectly to and from the event 35 min away via highway. At 70(ish) it's not bad, more tire noise than engine noise. There was some scraping over bridge expansion joints, so rough roads and speed bumps are to be avoided.
I felt a bit like a rock star, lots of questions and people coming up to talk. I got to give my UPS driver a ride for the 1st run (he's been after me to get the car out to the Auto-X events for over a year! and he did bring me about 1/2 the parts for the car), but since I cut the day short I had to welsh on several other ride-alongs people had asked about.
Impressions from the 50-something second first drive: This car is going to be very good at driving hard. Slaloms were easy -much better than the STI where I was fighting the heavy front end. Decreasing radius turns were interesting, since the car is so rotatable because of the LSD and weight dist. I could set and change the corner line with throttle or brake and the turn in seemed good and it was SOOOO responsive.
I need to check where the fuel is coming from. The smell/issue only happened during hard cornering, I could drive to and from the event no problem without a whiff of gas, so it's probably the level sender seal. Worst case there is a leak from the weld where I had the can open. I will try removing the side panel first, rather than going after the seats and firewall.
Second issue: some of the riv-nuts that hold the belly pan on came out at some point, so it's drooping in the middle of the front edge. The event parking lot was not smooth, so I definitely bottomed out a few times. Need to check if the holes are salvageable, otherwise I need to figure out a different way to mount the belly pan.

That sucks.
About the leak, a lot of chances it's the god damn fuel level sender. That thing seems to resist most of the sealings you can throw at it.
But, it's not on the passenger's side...
It is a damn responsive car, I hope you can get the gopro set right and oops I mean you can race it some more without issues and feel all you can up to its limits. And report to us.
If you want that already great paint to look more war, you could throw a little dark green at it.
Rock star? Hey man, I thought you were a rock star already. What a shame. lolll

Found an oil leak from the thermostat. One of the NPT to AN fittings had a slow drip when oil was circulating under pressure, left quite a mess on the belly pan that I confused for gas. I backed that fitting off and applied more thread sealant. After letting it cure overnight fired up the car today and looks good. Idled for 5 minutes, no drip.
I leaned the car over at 8* using jackstands and I found a weep at the fuel level sender -par for the course. Have new gaskets in the mail so I'll give that a try. I figured there would be a problem with my welds, but I don't see any evidence of that yet. It would be nice if the level sender fixes the problem since I only had to remove the side panel to get to it.
Fingers crossed.

1 $.68 gasket later and the fuel leak seems fixed.
I found more oil leaks at the oil filter block off plate when I was replacing the failed riv-nuts for the under engine pan. Annoying...
I am waiting on a resistor to fix my non-functional oil temp sender before I put the car back together, hopefully soon! This time I'm going to find an empty parking lot and hoon around it a bit to see what else leaks before driving to an event.

It looked like a weep from the NPT to AN fittings at the oil filter block off plate. I wrenched them down tighter. It that doesn't work I have thread sealant. The AN fittings shouldn't need sealant... but it was hard to tell exactly where the oil seep was from. I need to watch while the engine is running... but I don't have a lift so I'll be lying under the car. Not exactly looking forward to it.
Frank, i'm sure your gaskets will work... you should be set for 100 years if you do an annual change :| (can't imagine dealing with all the import and registration crap you've been through)

Stupid gas tank is stupid. Still had fuel coming out of the level sender when cornering. On a lark I tried both the factory and replacement o rings since they fit when nested. That actually seems to have done the trick, no leak on the next test drive.
Next problem was leaking from the AN oil hose to the thermostat. I think I figured out the problem, the hose end is a threaded compression type fitting. The rubber hose showed marks/impression from the previous install -I had removed the hose ends to clean everything after the engine failure. Reinstalled that hose as it had been. I just cut 1/2" off the end and the hose end was a lot harder to thread on. I will leak test tomorrow... and I may have to do the same thing to the hose ends that supply/return to the filter block. Not thrilled about that...

Oops, come again on the stupid fuel tank. I thought you already had the replacements o-rings, does it leak with 1 replacement o-ring?
Or did you now try with both the FFR and replacement rings at the same time (2 rings on and you fitted the sender on top and tighten)?

I have special compression tool from Kool Tools to make AN lines. Also have a AN fittings test set to pressure test the lines once made. If you'd like to use them. :-)

Do you still have the stock fuel tank? You could cut out the mounting ring and weld it to the FF tank so the OEM gasket seals better.
My 2 cents. But I never used the secondary fuel sensor nor my stock tank in the race car or my 818 as I've always had a fuel cell and used a AIM MXL dash channel to mate with the OEM main level pot sensor at the fuel pump to do my fuel gauge readings. These guys: http://www.ironcanyonmotorsports.com/icm-fuel-sender/ make a sensor adapter thingy to do this easly.
