Ahh, bummer

Lowering looks great.

Looks like flex agent wasn't used on your flexible bumpers during the first repaint. Yeah I think that only gets used at SOME body shops on jobs you're paying high dollar for.

Taj, I dont remember if it got used or not. The bumper was fine until I nudged into the rear of an Escort. My crash bar is slightly cut so the cover basically pushed back where it shouldnt have causing the cracks.

The rest I blame on myself for doing a rush job on prep work.

Eric other than the control arms I had zero issues.

Bah, got the wrong FMIC. Ordered a 31x12x3 dual intake/exit intercooler, got one with single inlet/outlet. So hes gonna trade it for a 31x12x4 and Im just gonna stick with single inlet/outlet. Reduce the number of pipes running around my engine bay.

Haven't posted in here yet, so I suppose I will

The car spun a bearing, so I decided to say screw it and go all out with it because the new job gives me the funds necessary to do so (lucky me ). Still is going to be a little while before I get it all together though.

DR's GT2871R kit with 3" O2 housings
4" downpipe, probably connected to a 4" exhaust of some sort
Ray's billet rods and pistons
Forged crank unless someone provides a billet option
Ported/Polished heads (hopefully) with 264 cams
Upgraded valves/springs
AEM EMS
780cc injectors w/ dual supra pumps
Spec 3+ clutch
300M OS
SS X-fer case front and mid housings (courtesy of LSE, thems pieces is gorgeous)

That's a basic jist of what I want/have right now, but parts of the list may change.

So yeah I am bumping this. Winter is fast approaching and I know some people plan on parking their rides and doing some modding over the winter. So whats new?

As for me, the Stealth remains the daily. I just got a Quaiffe LSD and will be getting it in hopefully soon. I have a set of BigTyla ground wires on the way too. Going to probably upgrade the rest of the charging system and replace the positive cables too. Nothing major. Other than that I am going to do what I can to get the body of the Stealth ready for paint in the spring.

I've got to finish putting the RT back together. I just hate working out in the cold plus Ineed an assistant to get the subframe back under it.

The Talon will hopefully be running right again and sold off.

Ok Im done.

I'm hoping to get mine back soon (no really) so I can drive and cruise by the beach, take lots of pics with the new DSLR and post em up, just to give my fellow 3Sers a hard time, while they are in their off season.

Well my TT is in the garage with the transmission at the shop, so I'm going around the engine bay doing several deletes, re-routing some junk, and cleaning everything up. I want it to be clean as possible (it was dirty as fuck when I got it) and I want to get the bay a lot less crowded.
I'm also installing an FMIC to run my 15g setup at full potential. Once I get my trans back and in It'll be off to ESP in Manchester (hopefully) for a tune and it'll be all set.
The car is in the garage, but as soon as I'm done I'll have to get it out...and snow is fast approaching. So most likely I'll get it done just to have it sit there for a few months, unless we have a mild winter.

Well, it's officially winter now, so the VR4 will probably just sit until the road salt gets washed away.

The RT is fixed up and ready for Steph.

The new Stealth Base needs some love. ECU is showing signs of going, window regulators are slow, needs a new ETACS unit, needs my 3sx downpipe installed, needs brakes, and needs a few body panels swapped along with a few interior panels. Good thing, I have a parts car. 2G RT conversion coming as soon as I get some time. Already swapped on a set of Avenger wheels with new tires and an Alpine stereo. This car will be nice when I'm done.

Will probably be picking the 99 base up next week. That car just needs a new windshield and she'll be ready to be sold.

I've got awesome projects in the works, some are or have become SWEET vehicles.

And on Monday I should buy a 93 Kawasaki ZX-11 sportbike engine for $40! will hopefully be built, turbocharged, and go in a small light vehicle later later.

My shitty 9bs that I bought from Walek are forcing me to go 13T sooner than planned (was planing for end of '08)

I already contacted Rob Beck and will have a set of 13Ts on there way to me relatively soon.

That's just one of those situations where ya gotta assume you're going to get screwed.

My TT is still down. Scraping together tuition money and hopefully will have some extra to restore it to running condition.

I bought them from him prior to all the shit he did on 3Si, at the time I just thought I was getting a good deal. Hindsight is always 20/20.

Common, y'all should know I;m smarter than that.
