[ATTACH]30569[/ATTACH][ATTACH]30570[/ATTACH][ATTACH]30571[/ATTACH][ATTACH]30572[/ATTACH][ATTACH]30573[/ATTACH] Car still has the a2 swap… Someone attempted a pretty bad wire tuck I have yet to fix. Bought the car off someone in upstate ny, forgot the town name. German name, just north of Albany. Anyways car had a shot right tie rod and a way fucked up alignment. Clearcoat on pass side fender has started peeling. However it’s in good hands now. Few shots you see the car with 16x7 5zigen fnor1c bronze rims with ecsta xs tires. Got ls mesh with 205/50 15 hankooks and just got a set of ecsta xs in the same size mounted on those too. Pic suspension 10k/12k spring rates… Still read drums, however I have a whole ITR caliper setup and spindles/rta brake booster and cylinder swap. Hi flow 2.5 cat, runs an RBC IM now as well. Flushed the tranny out with amsoil synchromesh as it’s starting to act up. Once the brakes are done, it’ll get a tranny rebuild, LSD and a new clutch, then it’s stage 2 cams from SVM. Trying so hard not to jump the gun and just buy the cams now lol. This car has surprised the shit out of many, many people. No plans for exterior items, I love it sleeper status. If it does get any, it’ll only be for the track, then right back off. Don’t like attention from thieves… Got a 2 way alarm with 1 mile range and tilt sensors for all dat.
