Default Our little 3 week long from the ground up project.. K24 inside

With four weeks till the IFO event in Tucson we decided to see if we could put together a car in that time frame.

Basically boss man picked up this eg hatch with an a2 in it.


Original plan was just to do paint and body work and drive it till it resold. So the body work began.




Then it was decided that we should see what it could do all motor....



Motor was too small so we yanked it and sold it. While the motor is our we decided to just clean up the bay a bit. So a mild tuck is under way...




Motor showed up a few days later

Welding up the bay

body work in the bay


primered the bay


our to do list


more smoothing


laying down new seam sealer


Pulled the subframe and painted it


laying some base coat in the bay


Bay painted and subframe back in

Little update. Car went 11.8@ 119 missing second gear. Trans is out again with a chewed up third gear synchro sleeve.

Have a joe McCarthy 9.0 intake manifold we will be dyno testing this week.
