Re: My K24A2 swapped JRSC DC5
Spent four hours in the emergency room last night. Went to the hospital around 10 and didn't get home till 2:15am this morning.... couple xrays, some shots and lots of pain.
They say I have Pleuritis. It's in inflammation of the pleura. Thats the tissue around the lungs I guess? I can't breathe in deep or turn my body or its hurts and feels like a sharp pain as if I had a broken rib.
But that didn't stop me from being a car nut! I came home at 2:15am and at 8am I was up and in the garage working on the car.. luckily they gave me some shots to relieve the pain
notice my sweet medical bracelet lol
haha anyways
Phil cam down again and we kept on moving along
I started cleaning out this crap. I'm going to weld it closed this week
and then I started filling in the dimples on the firewall
damn theres a lot of random dimples
and I also started sanding off the paint to start work on the passenger side
like a giant green booger lol Waiting to dry so we can sand it down

just got that issue in my mailbox, congrats dude.
you gotta be a hardass to have that pain and still work on the car.
loved the diy throttle body shave, need to do that soon.

^ thank you guys for the compliments
Making decent progress. Gonna spend all day today in the garage....
Got the main corner filled pretty good
the back firewall is coming along nicely
first coat:

and I need to keep working on the driver side
While waiting for that to try I took apart an engine :coffee:

Re: My K24A2 swapped JRSC DC5
Spent 6 hours in the garage today................. my fingers tried to commit suicide to get out of sanding
Anyways here is some of the firewall
and then I did some more filling to smooth it more
I think the back wall is going to turn out good. And the corner is a bitch but looking good
Spent a lot of time on the driver side today
and more fill/sanding
finally almost done
did some filling on the passenger side strut tower
also worked in this bitch of a corner
and finally some other misc parts

Re: My K24A2 swapped JRSC DC5
started working on the car tonight but after all the sanding last night my fingers just couldn't handle it tonight... so I focused on one area and did some mudding.....
filled in some more of this area
and some of the back firewall
but spent most all my time right here:
