Yeah thanks again for the help! These new parts are making for a pretty quick car. I really need to get the rest of the parts on and get it tuned. It can't be good running this car with the BBK, untuned.

I think I may get the electronic boost controller. I like the idea of being able to really dial the boost in.

 

does not matter long as your not in boost constantly the car does not need a tune for now. Finish getting it put together. What other parts are you needing pm me

 

Here's what I need...

You must be rich man cuz just to bring it back to stock let alone upgrade it had to have cost you a fortune! But hey if you got the cash then more power to you!

 

awesome!

 

Its alive! Its alive! YAY! (^_^)

 

i have some of that stuff pmed you

 

Looks good. I have a fully built 42r evo and since I can't daily drive it I want another evo with gt35r for dd. I think I found an evo 8 with 50k miles for 13k. Good luck rest of the way!

 

Thanks for the kind words, guys!

We were able to finish straightening the rad support tonight. I was planning on replacing it but it came out great. I should have the hood and bumper cover tomorrow (Wednesday) and then it will start looking like a car again! I just need to finish chasing down the little tiny pieces...

 

Looks awesome made great progress. Did you get it as a clean title or you going to get it salvage inspected? Also did u get a ny salvage im trying to find out if they accept aftermarket receits there

 

wow alot of progress i cant even tell it was wrecked. good job on picking up all the parts. i found a blow evo a few months before i got mine i was going to buy but he sold it pretty quickly of course. would been a fun project.

 

Its salvage. I rebuild a lot of salvage vehicles as I buy from the insurance companies. The NY MV-907a salvage certificate is a little more difficult to do but they are not too bad. I have completed a couple with good luck.

Make sure you keep all of your receipts. Aftermarket parts are usually ok. If the parts come from another vehicle be sure you get the VIN of that vehicle recorded on the receipt. You should also look into getting the paperwork started as this is the worst part. They will give you a time, date, and location of the inspection.

 

Here's some updated pictures of the nose of the car. Its not perfect but its pretty darn close!

 

how come you don't have the rad. fan? & she drives w/o it..
is that not required or somethin..???

 

I have the radiator fan. Thats the one thats closest to the motor. The fan on the front of the car is mainly for the a/c condensor which I did away with when I removed the a/c.

The fan I have is not working. They are only needed to keep the car cool when there isn't enough airflow throw the radiator. I have driven it a few times without the fan but you really have to watch gauge. Plus the temp being about 20 degrees here help keep it cool!
