Default EFMashPlz' Build Thread.... Revisited.

before we start with the massacre.... let me give you a taste of the car i thought i bought.





what you are about to see is real.....and quite graphic.....





I guess they had to make way for the intercooler piping


guess they ran out of solder, and favored the butt connector ECU style.

this is how it looked under the hood.


and heres the interior.


off to work we go.






wire tuck and brake line relocation.


now for engine bay shaving.






next comes the DA sander and more prep for paint.

sorry for the crappy pics, old school cam. will get my 8mp on it as soon as it comes back from canon


will update at every step

Updated steeez:





fresh outta paint


out with the old in with the new

vague idea of what it will look like :D

trying to decide between black and red center garnishes... i'll take pics of both tomorrow when we find em... plus pics of everything that they're doing over there.




chris will chime in about his own car later... he's busy "working" right now...

so are we lol....turns out that the wiring harness from an 88 and a 91 have alot of different plugs. so we didnt get the wiring done all in one day like we thought we would. were frankensteining the 91 harness into the 88 body, cuz like you saw above, that harness in the 88 was all butt connected together. and im just not having that. so next week we go back for more wiring, and hopefully setting the motor in the car
