94 3000GT base TT- Runs like a dried turd. Brakes suck. Suspension sucks. The ATX won't even go into OD. Interior doors have pretty bad bubbling. The tune is shit because there is now a massive leak at the plenum.

Tranny #1 is now 2/3rds of the way out. I started yesterday afternoon and went as far as I could without a picklefork to pry out the axles. Tranny #2, courtesy of a certain board member, has been sitting on my parent's garage floor since last weekend. New rotors and rear pads are in route. Bubble-free interior panels are waiting to go in. TT ECU arrived this week. I even got some nice new guages for the car.

Things have really started to come together with this car. Since relocating my other car earlier this week, I've suddenly found more motivation to work on it.

I am still deciding if I am parting out the rest of the car, or putting it back together.
Stuff I still have:
-93 rt/tt chassis (blue) with nhra tagged cage, race seats, harness, interior, etc...full body
100% of my drivetrain (mostly oem parts now)
76gts with single manfold setup
ported heads w/1mm over valves, pinned to help prevent lift
A1 research headstuds (1 of 3 sets ever produced)
1600cc injectors
nitrous setup
crazy fmic setup with piping and tial bov
4" exhaust, twin tial bov's, etc

Pretty much I toss in a stock shortblock, re-assembly my trannies, put in a few fuelpumps, buy another aem, a radiator with fans, and put the car back on the road, back to a potential 10 second pump gas car..
Not sure if I really want to, I might just put it in storage for this year and think about it.

[quote=""Caffinated Soap""]Dead ATX. Just spent a buttload on a new one. I rebuilt the engine last fall, so hopefully this will be my last big expense on it for awhile.[/quote]Scratch this post.

She runs good. :D

The 94 Stealth runs. Its got a chattering clutch (two blown diffs blowing oil all over it will do that), and a dying IAC. Also has no reverse, and no 4th. I still have a switched hot wire running to the fuel pump.

The 92 RT is currently sitting in the backyard with no front subframe under it.

Em, I am still working on a way to get that engine to you. If the fucking Talon wasnt a piece of shit it would have sold this weekend and with part of that money I was going to go buy a truck. Then I was going to make plans to head that way in a few weeks.
