that is an awsome price, especially on both sides.
Wish i had the funds to do that. today i will be getting some more paint, to get busy on that.
dont know what im going to do with the rust, i might go HMT style with the great stuff, and use it to hold over for now, but when i have the income to buy those rear quater panels, you bet I will.

thanks EvansPerformance for the link!

Still raining
But i got the gas cap back on, trim around the doors, and the mirrors, btw they are all nice shiny black.

all that is left to paint is the roof, and little bit of the hatch, oh, and the spoiler....
then just little things, i have a lip for the front bumper, will paint it black when i get it ready to put on.

over spray on the glass all comes off easy, little scrappy scrappy with razor blade, and like new again.

will post up pictures tomorrow as long as no rain.

Started the search in the local scrap yard for a turbo motor, and guess what i found....



Any guesses?



D16Z6 YAY for me, only issue i seem to have is it is auto . But its complete running motor, harness, ECU and tranny if i want.

Along with that come some 450cc injectors from turbo eclipse, and a choice of one of 2 t3 turbos or a t25. thats where i have a ? the t3's are stamped .48 and .49
i have never seen one stamped like so. ill get some photos if i can.

I would clip the wing and save a little weight, other than that just needs boost!
