ok i got it running wayy better I adjusted the trigger angle and had to adjust the number of teeth in the haltech to make it run good. I was tuing it today and got it up to 20psi of boost and man does that thing pull!!!! i did a hard launch and shifted hard into second spinning the tires til i let off the gas. I have to do more tuning yet but it is doing very well so far, had to put it away for the night so i would not get in trouble with the cops and so i would have tires left

ok got the clutch in and you know for a cheap clutch that thing is nice. It grabs like right now there is very little give just in and out. I got the car running better still not 100% but she does pull extremely well at 15psi and in third. Once it gets up in rpm it sputters a bit so i think i have to adjust the cas a bit more and mess with the trigger angle. What a pain in the butt

well tried tuning it more and i can get it to run good one time and then the next it is hesitating and back firing. I'm going to dig into it more tomorrow since tonight i had the cops called on me cuz i was reving the engine and it was back firing. i just put everything away when the cops showed up asking me if i was done for the night he was very nice and knew the ppl in my neighborhood were old and had nothing better to do. Just makes me mad they didn't come out and ask me to stop or talk to me it's not like i would have said no. I figured it was making some ppl mad thats why i shut it down. Anyway one way or another the clutch is going in tomorrow and i'm gonna go to the meet in gr

well my buddy mike the one with the gtr let me borrow his spare cas and i put her on yesterday. Well at first i had to set the trigger angle since i had it all wrong for the other cas. I got her runnin and tried reving it up she was poppin and hesitating so i know that the cas was bad. I changed all the timing to make it run right with the other cas so everything was now way advanced. Car runs very smooth now i just have to finish tuning it i stopped at 4k(woman was naggin). I let it run for a while letting it get up to temp like usual and guess what?????? i shut her down and let it sit and get hotter and guess what??????? IT STARTED RIGHT UP!!!!!!! i was so excited So now i am working on the timing and i have to adjust the clod start map cuz i never got around to it. The new clutch goes in tomorrow and i have to fix the diff........ again i have the worse time with those R200's this is my third one and i can just guess what is bad in it again. The holes in the carrier that hold the spider gear pin turns oval after hard runnin and it starts slapping around until it breaks. Mine hasn't broke but very close to it so the pin is going to get welded in until i can get the vette irs in. I got the new monitor in the car now so i can tune the car without a laptop on the seat amd me leaning over. I'll get some pics

yea we can meet up i plan on leaving early sat morn, call me we can work out the details

ur coming to grand rapids jitter? i'm plannin on being there, i am puttin the clutch in on sat and doing work to the car to make it a bit more trust worthy

yep still got it have a couple ppl looking at it and are waiting on a qoute for shipping

i should be there

thanks pete, couldn't get an outside pic today we had to make custom mounts for the fog lights since the bumped wasn't fabbed with mounting blocks(imo this is a better way to go) i'll get pics tomorrow of one of the newbie's doing the brackets for the lights and a front pic. I was working on the amp rack a bit more, had to make the wires travel right with the amps and tv. Should have the tv in tomorrow.

lol thanks, i'll get an outside pic with the new bumper on the front makes it look much better. none of the trucks we build are limos they are all bought by real people all doors have rows of seats in em

mine is 1fastzt was thinking of rb25z but i already gots this one

ok part two, laptop lost it's power cord and i was scared to loose all i wrote This is why i rebuilt the tv rack, the amps needed a home too here is the tv half up but has both speaker covers on(just a lil dusty) here is the wiring for the crossovers for the mid and high end speakers the amp cover before foam and wrap the amp cover after foam and with the alton and kicker logos. now the fun stuff, the sub box after being covered in black suede. Kinda hard to read the lettering in this pic but i wanted it subtle, nothing like what other companies use the amp cover after the suede another shot of the sub box before lighting and after i love this shot and it looks better in person sorry it's not very clear it's hard to take a pic with no flash and hold it perfectly still. I have some of the center that i remade and i had to relocate alot of stuff. I'll get some pics of the front tomorrow where i made changes, had to move the cruise control it was in the center council under the arm rest. It is now in the dash, that took me a while but turned out very nice. I really hope he likes the changes we made and hope he tells alot of people so i can do more custom stuff like this. More pics to come

The pictures and descriptions below are not aimed at any particular company or persons, only what i have done to this truck to fix it and make it suitable for the owner well guys i have been working on orlando's truck again had to take a break to work on other customers trucks. Did a sweet f350 with six doors and an extended cab, very nice i might add here is a pic of the f350. and one more of her leaving the owners were driving her all the way back to colorado........ a really nice woman owned this truck ad told her hubby that he cant drive it ok ok here is orlando's truck: I had to rebuild the housing that was built for the tv because i was not happy with the was it was assembled and it wouldn't hold the weight for what i was planning. So the structure is all steel tubing now and secured to the truck with bolts. here is the top of the old enclosure... yes that is a seam.... here is another shot of before, the main structure was held with screws but all the covering was held with brad nails. I didn't like the wood used either it was that card board type stuff and it made me nervous. We used a combonation of plywood and MDF along with a big ol 2x4 to hold the top on. Pic of it in the new frame work: Oh yea check this out there are four screws holding the tv to the tv housing and one was cut short and siliconed in........ there are about four of us working on the truck now so it's going much faster but i am calling all the shots. One guy we have working for us is mikey and that guys is a god with metal. The other two are newbies to the world of customizing but they work their butts off. here is mikey doing the lettering on the new sub box here is the tv housing all nuzzled in it's new home and the tv in the new housing, only has one cover on the speakers so it looks kinda funny shop dog in the background stanley the shop dogg another of stanley
