so today il probaly just get the front bumper primed and ready for paint and possibly start installing the Lip, josh stayed home with me so dont wanna get to into the car and spend some time with him

 

thats cool.

and yeah, i had my daughter at the drag strip at 6 months old and she loved it ever since. i have her this coming weekend after i get back from the beach. depending on the weather i may take her to the strip again on sunday

 

nice josh hasnt been to the drag strip but has been to autoxevents and alot of shows and meets but thinkin this weekend can be his first drag event ^^

 

so took the pics of the mounts and sent them, then spent all day getting a busy signal and then when i finaly get ahold of them again all the sales reps are out for the day........ calling back tomorow hope i can get this fixed.....

 

here are some pics, ive tryed so much to align it just doesnt wanna go

 

yep, you def got the 90-91 mount there. thats the same problem i had, except opposite with the first set of mounts i bought last year. i got the 92-93 and needed 90-91

oh yeah, wtf are you waiting so long to get josh to the strip for?!?!?! lol

 

they said its the right mount so im gonna man handle it tomorow with my buddy Big C

didnt get the mounts done today didnt have a second pair of hands so figured id get the cables connected to the pedals.... the clutch cable is to short i hooked it to the pedal inside and there was no slack in the line to even adjust it, is there a difference between the 92-93 cables to 90-91 mine was messed up so pulled the one off the 90 parts DA


painted my bat tray and support. the mounting bolts were rusty as Fk so i blasted them very clean now

 

looks good. great job fixing the front end damage

Big Sexy modeling the "Spoots Intake"(AKA Big C)

The crown piece


Sealed

K&N drop in Filter

Finished

 

That intake is purty cool! I just pulled off the resonator and that seems to have worked well, as least as far as the way the motor sounds.

 

yeah it takes the sound out of the engine bay and you can barely hear it inside the car, so its not drowning the inside of the car lol

 

geesh, isnt this thing done yet?! lol

 

lol andy pants its almost there i just picked up the old thremo housing off myu a1 and found a timing belt cover then when i ran out to the shop today i forgot them so had to run back..... gonna get more done tuesday i gotta spend some time with the family
