if you dont mind me asking.. how much did the floor pan cost you? and was it hard to source?

 

sweet

 

floor was $800 because of the crappy exchange rate, it was 450 pounds. it was very easy to source though there is a company in london that is a wrecking yard that pretty much consists of evo's, subies, skylines, and other tuner cars. its called japperformanceparts

 

ok made a little more progress today.. i've been fighting a cold for the last few weeks so i've not had much energy and been lazy to work on the car. but i gotta get it done. so the evo floor is officially done, well with the spot welds being removed. im possibly gonna get it sand blasted this week to remove all the lil rust spots and then get it treated so the rust wont be an issue. gonna work on the mirage a lil more tomorrow and sunday to see if i can get that floor out this weekend as well. most of the spot welds are done(all of the easy ones lol)
(will post pic's when photobucket is done uploading)


ere are the spots im kinda confused about how i will be able to remove from the mirage, i'll take better photos later to show my confusion



i cut out part of the mirage floor so it would be easier to work on

 

love to see this kinda work good luck with it really.. i would choose tarmac black, electric blue or graphite gray for this project..

 

im probably going to do tarmac black, but im also leaning towards the lighting yellow or whatever the yellow is called on the evo's i kinda want it to stand out. and washing black cars suck, i've learned my lesson lol

 

man thats alot of work!

 

after some drilling, cutting, burning my self with sparks, and lots of cussing, its finally out!!!

 

lol yea it gets a lil overwhelming and sometimes i wish i would have just bought an 8 or 9 but when its done it will be worth it

 

My friend did a project like this for 3 years. Everyone joked about it being a giant money pit and that it would never get back together and bla bla bla. He now Drives his K20 Da integra that is magizine material. Doing something awsome isnt easy or else everyone would be doing it.

 

yea everyone is telling me the same thing and sayin i should have just bought an 8, but im budgeting $12k(thats 2k over my original budget) but at the end of it all it will be extremely unique and different and thats my plan for all my cars(except for my dd civic lol good mpg ftmfw)

 

keep up the great work!!! following the thread closely!! and 12k isnt much for a car you cant really get out here!! damn i so want to do this!

 

nicely done first time i seen anyone do this

 

the plan is 12k(now), but we will see if im able to keep it at that or under(kinda doubt it) once i finish it, we can meet up and you can check it out. if you do decide to do one i have found a few reliable sources for parts to help you out, and also have found a few businesses to stay away from as well lol

 

you do it for you , who gives 2 about others on here, let them talk at the end of the day its all about you and if you have the money to do it do it up!!!
