yep…over 2 years, and still wrenching strong :love:
you ever get it fixed?
ya, it is running in the state that the pics were taken in. I got like 50 miles on the motor maybe, but theres all kind of other probs im workin on…no hurry, its my baby so it can wait for the proper attention.
nice car. want to sell it?
lol i think he tried sellin it a lil while ago
nice car. i’m jealous
looking good.
its a pretty obsessive love affair. I dont think i’ll ever sell it, and probably will never officially finish it. I never thought i could own a car that gave a person such love and joy, but yet such hurt, anger, dispair and pain. …man i need a woman :embarass:

I love that car man. You can never sell it!
Glad to hear its back on the road again!!!
details… 
ive been waiting for pics to get a idea on which model it was! looks cool… awd and turbo:D
no intercooler???
they call it the st165, basicly the chassis code. super strong drivetrain, great lil under-appriciated car IMO.
the intercooler is the stock water to air on the top…basicly the bottleneck of the whole operation there. Once i get enough balls to cut apart my front end, i’ll front mount it. It gets way to hot in the motor compartment to stick an intercooler up there.

the way that compressor outlet is facing right at the intake is kinda sweet. You could get a more efficent air/water setup (some people have messed with those vortech aftercoolers on DSM’s and they seem to work well), or maybe even an air/air top mount setup with a hood scoop/spraybar type deal and then do a water injection kit to help out even more…
:dunno:
