AlchEm1st's Evo IV Coupe conversion project
Just hoping it will start transitioning from the build stage to the maintain stage with an occasional upgrade or custom made part.

So I've made a ton of progress since the last post! The fenders are finished and painted as well as the side skirts! The fuel system is also finished and working great!
Fender test fit after body filler, sanding, and priming:
Fuel system finished!
Old fuel feed converted to return with a nifty little adapter fitting!
New fuel feed line (-8) vs old fuel feed line (5/16)
Finished the first fender!
Time to start on the second one! Here it is in bare metal for a test fit: (Note the three different sections of fender! It takes three fenders to make one "coudan" fender)
New fuel rail came in from STM!
Also took some time to clean up the wiring harness here as it looked terrible
Second fender done!
New meats! 215/45/17 Bridgestone Potenza RE71R's!
Also finished up the exhaust. Will probably add a muffler later; but it's not really loud.
Headlights came in! These will be a base for modding for the future. For now they're a decent inexpensive HID headlight with a
biprojector that handles both high and low beams. (The halos will be ditched later as I don't like the look of them)
And this just in today! Side skirts are finished!
Two screws and a whole lotta 3M body molding tape lol. I had them installed this way before and they were on the
car for 6 years with no issues and I nearly broke one trying to get them off before lol.
They match the Evo 4 rear bumper and lip perfectly!
