This pic shows a lot more:



On the plus side though I got my launch control set up! Sort of having fun with all this tuning stuff. I had a Tactrix for months and never got around to use it. I'm using CeddyMods 1.2 for the Evo 5/6.

As for my FS post, maybe the old ad expired, who knows. Anyhow I'm spending more time and money fixing it up, perhaps to the point where I can get it fully painted. If you're (or anyone else) is interested PM me to talk numbers.

Repainted my front caliper. The decal isn't perfect and I might replace it down the road, but I't MUCH better than before.



Also improved the SAS (antilag) system, I got flame!

Threw on a set of 25mm spacers to help fill out the arches. The Volks were great at that, Enkei wheels not so much.

Awesome progress! Been following this for many years. Keep it up. I think you should keep it but know the feeling of being on the hook for three cars. I just had to sell one of mine so I'm down to two. It would be sad to see you get rid of it prior to finishing it though.

Hey, there. Long time, no see!

Any updates on the car? Has it been sold, yet?

Hope all is well!

Resurrecting this from the grave. Car had been sitting for well over a year now, mainly because I started a new career as a real estate broker which ate up a lot of my weekends. On the plus side, I now finally have the funds to finish the project.

All that said, the car is in need of some serious cleaning and maintenance work. The engine hasn't been started since I parked it and the whole intake/cooling system needs to be reinstalled. After that I need to have the car smogged, which means I'm going to need to source a catalytic converter. As it is currently the car spits flames. Until that point, however, I will be buying all of the misc. parts I never got around to to really make this a 100% TME build.

Starting off with some new splash shields front and rear, the correct red gaskets for the rear arches, a brand new shift knob and boot, and rare option glove box to replace the passenger air bag.






Stay tuned, I'm hoping to have the car smogged and registered before the end of the month. I'm going to the Geneva Motor Show the first week of March and after that it will be off for paint. At least that's the plan!

Also I managed to get the engine back together, still needs a lot of fine tuning to get it perfect, but my 2-step and anti lag are still doing great.
