Me too! Carlos said he might have all the hot parts finished by Monday. So maybe by the end of next week I'll have a running car.

Still waiting on my valve cover though. Hopefully I get that back soon as well.

 

Update 4.28.2013


Spent a few hours out in the garage today. A good buddy of mine stopped by and was nice enough to let me pull his valve cover off his daily driven EVO so I could use it to time my motor. I am still waiting on getting my carbon fiber hydro-dipped cover back from Tirado. I got most of the drivetrain parts done and should be able to finish the rest of it by mid week. I'm pretty much playing the waiting game again. My ID2000's should be back from ID early this week.

Here are a few pics from today's progress:

 

She's looking good. Almost there. I cant wait to see it run in person.

 

This looks so beautiful. Are you still going to drive this on the street around Wadsworth area? Cause if you are then I will have to go out that way to see it running haha.

 

Nice! Talon looks nice too. Whats the scoop?

 

your garage is massive good amount of room.

 

I plan to drive it as much as possible this year!


That is my brother in-law's 1G. 42r powered + all the bells and whistles! Should be a strong runner this year.

 

Chris, how does the fathouse fab unit look and fit? I have had my eyes on it for a while but I have yet to pull the trigger

 

It looks like it will fit very nice before I sent it out to get powder coated. I had to bend/tweak one of the brackets a little to get it to line up with the car. Maybe it moved a little during welding or shipping. Not really a big deal. You also have to drill a hole for the upper bracket to bolt to the car. Once I get it back from Tirado I'll throw it on the car and get some pics.

 

What a great build. Good luck this season.

 

Thank you!

 

+1 wish i had some free space like that!

Can't wait to see what that VC looks like with the hydro-dipping

BTW how does that stuff hold up to heat?

 

Awesome. What day are you heading over for the race, Friday?

 

what specs are your slipstreams? i cant source out any cheap rx7 wheels might end up doing rotas :/

 

15 x 7 (+35) I believe. I honestly forget the offset. They are the 15 x 7's though. Call ASpec Wheels and Tires LLC 510.533.3533 I'm pretty sure you can still get a complete set of 4 for around $465 shipped


I'll be at Buschur all day Friday most likely haha. I have off Wednesday thru Monday.
