new build starts on page 6


well ive been watching a few other build threads and figured im snowed in so y not. I bought the car at the end of sept from a local evo shop it was headed to the auto auction so i got to it just in time i wanted a low milage 9 but after thinking this thru it was the way to go car has a clean title was low milage before the accident and i could pay for it in cash and take my time building it.

the car when i first got it






then i got the rad support replaced

 

how much for the rad support? The cheapest Ive found so far is 300

 

Car looks better already! Keep us posted on the updates. If you ever want to sell those stock wheels I'll buy them from you and can pick up locally

 

Nice! Looks like it should be a fun project!

 

rad support was$340

the wheels were mint i just sold them and bought mr se bbs wheels

and thanks i got a few more updates to post.

 

so since sept ive bought a few things and bare with me on the pics everything is from my phone.

evo 7 tails


evo 9 steering wheel and dash since they were blown in the car.

dam you spent some buck on this car. Looking awesome love the wheels

 

Good work, cant wait to see it come together

 

Nice project!!

 

thanks guys i still need a good bit of stuff but i hope to get it running soon i may even paint the car a hole diffrent color we will see whos good with air bags and answer my srs questions ?

 

As for the airbag you will need to reset the computer. I got an electrician here who comes to our shop and resets all our bags once new ones are installed.

 

Damn man... Its coming out nicely. You sure are spending a good few bucks putting this thing back together. Gl throughout.

 

looking good. i will have a build / rebuild thread in the next few days. im picking up a 03 tomorrow
