Suspension is already done. Ground Control coilovers and KYB AGX struts. As for traction, I have a Phantom Grip and a combination of solid and poly inserts for my motor/tranny mounts.
This car will be strictly highway.
neat build :cool, and welcome to the boards!!!
Engine bay is looking great! When are you expecting to be done?
Plan to finish it over winter. Really no reason to rush it now. It will be snowy soon. After I get it all running, I am going to jump on the interior. I have to get all new, so it will take some time to find the rare turbo interior in mint condition.
So all new interior plastics, audio (factory headunit with slightly up rated speakers), carpet, headliner and seats. Then if time permits, fix all the outside metal issues and repaint it.
It’s going to look funky fresh.
I assume that the whole car will eventually be gold…? Looks like it should be fun when its back on the road again.
No, if I get around to painting the exterior, it’s going to be jungle camo. Most likely done in flat primers (green, brown and black). and then cleared over.
I started putting my motor together to drop in this week. So here are some really bad pictures. I will get better.
:lol niceeee
Lmao @ plug cover :crackup !
aahahahah very nice dude
any progress?
No, I have had alot of shit happen in my life in the past month. The motor is still sitting in front of the car. I am waiting on a couple mounts from my friend. Just with everything that has happened, I couldn’t give two fucks about my car.
Maybe this week I will do something. Who knows.
ya man im sorry to hear that shit, hit me up on aim dude, i been busy lately so havent kept in touch
Motor is in and everything is ready to move to the new garage.
My garage is dark, I don’t know how to use my camera phone. Cry me a river.
Looking good! :up
Dropped the motor back in, moved it to the new garage and started doing all the plumping. Hopefully should be running soon.
Car is back at my house. Friend was an asshole and left me car outside in the rain so I had to pick it up.
Engine is wired up, tranny and axles in, hoses are done except heater and rad. Next up is interior wiring, power steering, charging system, radiator and intercooler. Already ordered my carpet. So it’s down to maybe a month.
yep, looks like a dsm build to me.
