stunning looking machine 
almost everthiny you can see on the front subframe is made from TI,
the disks are lightened standard metro items turned down to 7.5", i will replace these shortly with alloy bells . [short of time recently]
hubs, drive flanges, top and bott arms, and the frame, the cemtrelocks are steel with alluminium alloy nuts,
rear arms are fabricated alluminium alloy , the hubs are made from 7075 t6 with some 6.75" disks i cut from stainless , small motorcycle calipers .Titanium stubb axles. centrelocks as the front.
the front frame is considderably stiffer than the standard item, and 1/3 the weight.and will never corrode.
the car came in at 560 kgs with two big batteries s at in the pass footwell for the dyno session, i suspect that minus the big batteries and plus some other bits missed off for the weigh in, it should tip at 550.
