My oem trunk and hood came back from paint today. Everything came back awesome, these will be my back ups. On another fantastic note I’m heading to Buschur’s next week to drop off my engine. I can start the ball rolling again and put it all back together. Major updates coming soon. Stay tuned!!!

Loving the build. Sorry to hear about the pup. Keep mobbing man, its awesome how far you've brought the car considering it was quite the **** show when you picked it up. Maybe I missed it, but what turbo are you going with? Precision? Garrett?

Keep up the great work!

Thanks for taking the time out to look at my build thread. Yea the house is not the same without her. Some days I have good some days bad. .. The car was definitely a **** show. Precision as of now, unless FP makes me change my mind. I haven't heard much about the new zona's ... Precision I have always been on the fence about , I have heard some good and some bad... Keep checking back ....

I've slowly followed the progress and your dedication to perfection is second to none. If I had the funds, I would take every step you are doing with the build of my IV. My progress is slow and steady on my build. This is how a build should be done! Great work and I'm sorry to hear about the loss of your pup.

Update: 07/27/18 Most of my suspension pieces came today. Received a lot of oem bolts. I was going to go all TI but can’t justify the price tag. Exedy triple hr also arrived as well. Still waiting on another package and my motor to finish.
