Default FunkyFresh_EK build

Came to a good deal(IMO) on this shell.. paid 5k for it just because of the low mileage on it... originally a weekend road jizz rocket..
58,289 Miles, no dings or dents or wat so ever...original paint that still shines like a motherf***er

Sorry most of the pic is goin to be on my ihone
Not goin into that much details but enough just for you to get the pictures

how i got it





7/14/11
Dropped off my motor and tranny at King Motorsports Unlimited

8/26/11

Sold my ctr spoiler with brackets... now gotta make a decision on wat i want next


11/12/11
As of today i gotta make a decision on wat wheels to get.. hard decision cuz both wheels has their own rareness in these specs......
Either 16x7.5 +29 offset Advan RG or staggered 16x7.5 +11offset 16x8 +18offset Dunlop Formula CPR's Hmmmm.. hate making decisions



11/14/11
Ive decided to get the dunlop formula cp'rs since they are more hard thos find in this specs payment sent
Now im trying to find a new prostate exam to run my harness thru... found one but its gonna be a pain to make the hole for it
this is where im putting it thru

from inside


enginebay



finally had time to cut this dam hole in my firewall.. now its all gravy
here it is folks thats where the harness will be running thru.. sorry bout all the dremel debreeze lol



was bored last night so i decided to push my swap into the bay and get it ready for the mounts... also adjusted my suspension a little to get ready for the wheels... hopefully they get here soon so i can get photos of them


i was bored last night so i decided to do a lil work



my charge harness ended up a little short so imma have to buy new powerline to rerun it... probly make some new holes for it.. gives me reason to upgrade them to9 2 gauge wires anyways


Got my wheels in today Best xmas present ever...


a lil progress was bored so i had to test fit them


Thanx guys

got my mounts on last nite and my quarter panel shaved for more clearance so i decided to gave her a bath..











Just got my stuff back from being painted.. heres a pic of my rear bumper.. yea no more yellow bumper lol



finally hooked up my battery..
i used pretty big wires.. main power line is 1gauge and the ground is 0/1 gauge and a 4gauge extra ground cable




drained out all of my old gas.. now time to put in some new one


And as i promise for more pix after its off jackstands





its basically done for now.... will get some real pix from a photoshoot soon

finally got my new oilpan in.. after tomorrow imma raise it up....

Jesus christ. I love your car man. How hard was it to put on the diffuser, on a scale of 1-10?

Nice Build! You need to hit the bottom radiator core support with some flat black to hide the core
