well been working on my car for the past couple days.. though i would share my progess over the next month or so with updates...plans are for the cars first race to be at the mir nopi race
the car will be going for the cage,chute and window net next weekend... waiting on like 100 parts from terry..... then the car is off to get painted.... which ill share when that gets done... it will be something very orgianal

 

Very cool bret.

 

thanks art been alot of work i work from 6:30am till 4 pm at my job then im working on my car from 4 till 10pm... but i got to get it done.... the motor is coming out tomarrow so i can work on that while the cage is getting done....
hope to crack into 9's by the end of the season know it will not be easy.. but that my goal.... i need alot of seat time

hows your motor coming along art?

 

finished it today bret. Just need the head and a new turbo. Money is really really tight so its going to be tough.

 

i know how you feel, i cant affored a boost controller

lookin good so far, who is doing your cage? getting that **** off the floor sucks....i wonder how effective it would be to just light the floor on fire...uhh controlled fire haha

ive been kicking *** on my car. i just need my motor back, which things are progressing on really well...and my goodies from full race. then rewire the engine bay, finish my fuel crapola, fab my DP and exhaust and finish my IC piping. we will see how it goes. im on a mission haha

bret what turbo are you running this year?

 

yeah same on this side..money is real tight....i just got a job this month after 8 months of not working.... but im trying my best.... i would love to go into the motor and goin to a bigger turbo but dont have the money.... im goin to my eagle rods to the test haha

 

i found the best way to get the **** up not good for the envirorment but expletive it.... my dad does commercial ac work so i took his freeon and sprayed it on it and hit it with a hammer and it pretty much shatter into a million pieces

 

i found this kickass air chizzle hammer thingy jammer....it rules for it. go figure i found that thing after i had already spent what felt like 100 hours on it old school style.

last time i was on the snap on truck they had this air powered bitch slap looking tool thing that looked perfect for this stuff. i cant get on the damn snap on truck wtih out spending a zillion dollars. my snap on guy rules though. our old snap on driver was a *****

 

We used dry ice. Just put a couple of sheets on the floor, and get a rubber mallet and it'll crack very easy. Takes 30 min to get everything off..

 

ive heard of that...i dont have a clue where to get dry ice around here though. doesnt help when im working on my car everything is closed too

 

haha yeah i was the same way with snap on i just finshed paying off there credit $3800

SNAP-ON CRUD THUD, I HAVE DONE 2 CARS WITH IT. IT ****** TEARS RIGHT THREW THAT ****, TAKES LIKE 30-40 MINUTES TO GET IT ALL OFF THEN U HAVE TO VACCUM ALL THE ****. THING IS CHEAP TO

 

Looks good, glad I am not the only one that still has a million things to do before the first race.

I used dry ice and it worked like a charm to get that crap up.

 

Looking goo errrr.............I mean looks like you have been busting *** on it man. Still alot to do, you are waaaaaaay ahead of me man. I may go ahead and driv eup there so you can help me do my interior too, gotta take all teh sound deadening out and unnecessary crapo from behind teh dash etc etc etc. I will treat you to some Pho man I like Joe am waiting on my motor too, I don't know if it will make it this season BUT I will try. So many important things to do before car get's touched really. I am just having a blast having my daughter here with me now I got sooo much work to do! WOW! I am coming up there to pick that motor up Bret, maybe you can roll back down with me so we can install it

 

yeah we can work something out. im goin to get my beater tomarrow! can you find out if i can get a twin disc for a 88 mazda 323 haha

 

im just hoping all this hard work will pay off... goin to use this as a learning year

 

sorry joe didnt see in one of your posts im running the full-race t3/t67 h.o. .82

hey joe you got any cars for sale under $1000 i was goin to buy a beater today but the guy faked on me

 

should be able to make some good power on that turbo.

hmm cars for cheap.... nothing that doesnt need work. i have a 240sx with no motor in it........and a mazda mx6, thats actually not half bad. perfect leather interior in it. needs breaks and it over heats, i havnt had the time to check it out and see whats wrong with it.

i have a 94 i think civic EX with power everything that runs perfect. brand new trans in it. only problems with that is the gas gauge doesnt work i dont think......the hood, 1 fender, and rear bumper are flat black and the rest of the car is gloss black. i cant let that one go quiet that cheap though

 

oh ok kool

 

well put another 10 hour day in... did some more work on cleaning the interior out and some small wiring work.. also got the motor and everythign else out here are some pics of todays work.also cut my figer pretty bad need stichtes but i jsut super glued it back together to save some money

 

Cool bro

 

cool..now clean that stuff before you put it back in i cut my finger really bad today

drill press > me pissed me off enough to finish what i was doing and go home. now im being fat and lazy watching the simpsons. if i had some beer id be set

 

i dont know how i cut mine i jusy had a puddle of blood as what like sweet..... yeah im eating frosted flakes right now hahahaha
