Started the wet sanding process with 800, 1000, 2000 and this time did a 3000 grit Trizac then compound, polish and ultrafine polish and it looks like glass.

Got most of the car back together as far as the interior and now exterior, I just have to paint my fenders and assemble my front end and the interior and exterior will be complete.

From there I can start working on the getting all the motor back in.

This may be the best progressive and documented build thread I've ever seen. Nice work!

Thanks man! I've really tried to capture everything I've done regardless of changes. It's also nice to go back a remember when my goal was a 10 second car but keeps progressing over the years to go faster and faster.

I took a really long break from Honda-Tech and when I got back I couldn't believe how slow it was. Thanks for helping to keep it going.

Yeah, a lot of stuff is on Facebook but I do like to pop on HT and share my stuff because Forums really do help others.

You know it bro, you know you liked seeing that front end done and back on and the rolling chassis is back together. Now just waiting for the 4piston Outlaw head to get back!

Bump to an old thread but an awesome read! Really does show how much effort it takes to go fast, consistently.

Is that the 5gal FCS cell? I doubt this car sees much street time anymore,but I was looking at 10 gal options so my car could still be semi street able
