Hi everyone could do with some advice I'm struggling to fit rear brake lines as they are to close to the rear panel that sits behind the drivers seat, has anyone else come across this problem ?

Are you re-using the original brake pipes?

I had the same and had to move the little valve that they connect into by about an inch further back to allow the rear panel to fit

No using new ones but where the rubber hose joins the copper pipes one is touching the plate that sits behind the drivers seat because of the location of the brake junction box, I thought about rotating it but this puts strain on the rubber hose that comes from the caliper

No, the original union is fine, it just needs to be moved rearwards a little.

Been a great night moved the locating plate back works a treat, got the fuel tank in place and fuel filter and also got the handbrake in place. Hopefully no the next few days will have wheels back on

Having a nightmare day today the front upper suspension arm threads have rounded off and struggling to find replacements (cheap enough) means I got to take most of front suspension off again gutted

Been a while since last updated but just wanted to let you all know that I have taken my Exocet for IVA last Wednesday and it passed on first attempt, although the weather was not much good and had a few little minor issues that needed rectifying I had a fantastic IVA inspector that went out of his way to help me pass it first time overall great day and wanted to thank everyone for there help and advice during my build and if I can ever offer any advice or help to anyone else would be more than happy to .
