New future builder

[Mcramsay]

Hey guys, my first post! I have just sold my gbsc zero which was my first self build kit car, to fund building a marlin sportster, hopefully I should be saying goodbye to my zero on Tuesday and going to see marlin on Thursday to put in my order. Basically I'm just looking for general advice on the build of the sportster, which bits are tricky and are there any known IVA issues?

Im looking to build using the 3.2 m3 lump and hopefully run it with an emerald ecu, rather than the stock bmw ecu, it seems there are many versions of this engine, what's the one to go for?

The known IVA issues I (and some others) faced are on my website - www.greatoldone.co.uk

The trickiest part I found was getting the bodywork aligned, and trimming the bonnets - which isn't that tricky if you take it steady.

Hi and welcome to the forum, Im sure you will find all the help you need as your build progresses and you will end up with a fab car in the end
