streeteg Posted April 13, 2007 Share Posted April 13, 2007 Well Tuesday 4/10/07 I flew down to Georgia to pick up my newest project ride. I found this diamond in the rough on another forum sitting pretty in the Car Classifieds section located about an hour south of Atlanta. 219 dollars and 2 hours later I was on my way down cash in pocket to drive this beast 13 hours back to my home state of jersey..... The general Mods list... Custom Sheetmetal Widebody kit Panazsport wheels Fuel Cell Custom Dashboard Autopower Roll bar RB25det Moto RB20 Trans Custom Driveshaft R200 Rear diff Full autometer Guages Carbon Mirrors Painless Wiring harness While it sounds impressive there is still a lot of work to be done... Here is how it sits now... Very appealing on the outside however there is still a lot of work to get done.... For 1--- the widebody/paint was done in 79.... so it needs a lot of freshining up. There is surface rust in some places and some cracks that need to be patched up. No big deal 2) The car has no blinkers, heat, reverse lights, tach signal, speed signal, fuel guage---soo all that needs to be wired 3) The car is open Dumptube which is LOUD AS HELL---so I will be rolling to Andy @ xotics new shop to take care of a fresh new custom 3" downpipe and exhaust. 4) The original customizer (I am the 3rd owner) put in a custom sunroof. ALWAYS A BAD IDEA> so I have it taped off for now until I can get the roof welded and painted in one piece again First order of business is to De-stickerify and De-Tint this bitch...and put my fresh black corbeau seats in... Plans include: 1) custom hood mount to allow for a front mount intercooler, 2) AVC-R and Power FC tune 3) fresh white paint 4) Work VX 17x10 wheels all around 5) Vent the fuel cell 6) Greddy intake manifold Wish List: GT3076R Turbosmart 38 Wastegate Fullrace topmount manifold HKS 264 cams HKS cam gears Supertech Valvetrain Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
streeteg Posted June 3, 2007 Author Share Posted June 3, 2007 So after 60 hours of prepwork the car is finally in for paint. Here are some pics: Also, picked up a 3" Apexi Carbon Ti Muffler that will be attached to 3" dP and exhaust.... Car will be in paint until roughly June 15th. As soon as I get it out it will be heading right to the exhaust shop. Greddy intake manifold, FMIC and boost controller are next on the list....so STay Tuned!
