I did my TE's to California in boxes for $70 with insurance for $2000
SSR's to PA with tires for $100 (doing the above method)

EF Too Doo

Paint hood (Install pins)
Get new left front fender, paint
Bang out two rather substantial dents
Install new clutch (Anyone in Bay Area want to help me please?)
New seat covers (Unless I find some cheap seats)
What Hoda seats fit my rails? Any? CRX?

Engine and wheels next month.



Sorry picture sucks

no price quoted and actually i've been trying to get a price quote since the beginning of october. still nothing. the shops owner gave me a real high estimate which i hope is just his guess b/c his son runs the shop and did a good part of the work. car was basically done on 11/1 and it's been sitting there since. if the price he gave me is right, well car is going to have to sit longer b/c family priorities come before the car

They must be charging storage fees or something. That sounds expensive at hell.

Anyone wanna buy the Innovative crossmember I have?

I love my innovative, but going lower is out of the question.

Need a lil help with wheel/tire selection. For those of you that don't know my plans, I'm going to be raising the car slightly on a set of DA coilovers, going for a rally theme. I've pretty well esettled on a set of Diamond Racing 15x8's. Not sure on the offsest or tire size though... Wheel geometry was never a strong suit of mine. I'll be running VW fender flares and want to fill out the wheel wells to as flush as possible. Any pointers?

It's like a traction bar, only it uses your factory radius rods. It isn't as effective as a traction bar but it gives great header clearance and has mounts for half and full size rads.
