took the other car to the wreckers yesterday and brought this home. 6 hrs of driving round trip..but oh so worth it



Car has new brakes, Coilovers, all the interior panels are mint (not gutting it) , Brand new snow tires on it Original paint needs just 1 of the 1/4's fixed slighty. My partner in the build's father owns a body shop

I found $6 under the carpet , Pillar pod , and a working Garmin GPS.

Next up shaving the engine bay and putting in poly..and a very un HMT wire tuck being done by a friend.

Gotta add in things like my battery box , I need a bigger rear sway bar, the car already has coilovers on it I will use on the koni's , I need tires, hood , fender (J-yard) Need some kind of T3 , I got a CX tranny for $40 (not sure if I am using it yet) I have a set of D series axles I paid $20 for, welding cable for relocating battery.

Don't use the CX trans. It'll kill you in the auto-x portion. I can refer you to some high profile people who would advise you to launch in second with the boost turned up, it's easier to launch as well.

Weld something in there. It triangulates the frame, reduces wheel hop when launching and when powering hard in the lower gears.
