    Haven't had much time to work on the car lately. Got the mini tubs all tacked in. Got a full size radiator mounted. Had to change the intercooler piping a bit to fit with the radiator. Jamie started on the sheetmetal in the front. Not quite finished yet but sure looks good so far. :2thumbs:

    Sold my turbo and heads. Going to go a different route with the motor combo.

    Here's a few pics

    Rear housing came in yesterday. Hope to order the floater kit within the next week. Jamie will install the ARB and bracing after we cut it to length and put the ends on. Souldn't have to worry about bending this one. :D Engine compartment will be painted within two weeks and then the motor will go in.

    Ok Jamie and I haven't had much time to work on the car lately. The shop has been pretty busy these past few months. Started to have some of the parts painted. Painted the front and back wheels. Mounted the 315/60's on the beadlocks. Still have to cut the quarter's to set the car down lower.

    99% completed floor bars. Seat bar and a few more gussets to go! :2thumbs:



    Took the floor bars out of the car to weld the bottom!!!!!!! :eek:







    Motor and turbo are on the way! Hope to start making the headers in the next few weeks. :D

    Thanks! I'm really happy with how it looks. And we didn't have to cut the entire floor out.

    Been a while since I updated my thread. Still changing my combo. Picked up a rdi alum 393W with some brodix 2.02's. Convertor is a Neil Chance bolt together and a Dynamic PG. I'm going to hold off on the modular for now. The short block is freshened up and I just have to drop the motor off to have a custom cam made and heads installed. Remounted the turbo to face forward. Still using the cast 94 for now. Mounted the brake pedal assembly, took the gas door out and put it in primer. Engine compartment is smoothed and in primer. Lightened the stock doors as much as possible and painted the door panels. I cut out the steel mini tubs and went with carbon fiber tubs to save some weight and to get the ride height i'm looking for. Still only notched the outside of the frame rails for clearance for the 315 60's.

    Not sure on the dyno numbers but the car I bought the drivetrain from went 7.51 @ 194 in nmra sso trim. Should work well for me with the 106 on it. :D

    The doors still have roll up windows and manual locks.
