thanks.

the repair has taken me 43 hours, the money...just under $450.

thanks.

 

looking good, might as well paint the fenders and the hood while you are at it!

 

haha, i know, i realized that when i was masking off, oh well. ill just have to buff the older paint to make it shine similarly to the new paint.

 

Can't wait to see it done

 

Good job man, looks great.

 

Subscribed... I fucked my car up the same way:

Still trying to figure this bodywork stuff out.

 

2/24/2010:

un-masked the car finally, installed rear wheel to check wheel fitment after flaring the 1/4's....1" wider lips will sit flush with the outer edge of the 1/4 panel...should be perfect.

the paint will be wet sanded, and the entire car will be buffed in early april....so yes i know there is orange peel, and dust in the paint...its normal.

 

I just really needed to subscribe to this. this is insane work dude!

 

The truth comes out when the clear goes on.

You did a really good job on those pulls.

Car looks great, man.

Deffinately gonna inspire quite a few people.

Edit: I deffinately can't spell definitely.

Can you do mine?

 

Great progress

 

nice job

 

Makes me wanna go out and wet sand my MR2! lol

 

awesome job there..

I wish i had the time and Patience to undertake such a task!

IMO Black is THE best colour for FCs!!


Good WORK!!!!

 

thanks, ill have more pics soon...time to start putting on parts i have been collecting.

 

dude killer job on the car. cant wait to see more of your car. it makes me want to paint mine black.

 

adding injectors, Rtec ecu, 255 fuel pump/filter kit today

gonna pull the exhaust, and turbo, take the turbo to the machine shop and port the wastegate, then i can install my exhaust, boost gauage etc etc etc

 

Pictures!!!

 

Love the work!!!!!!

 

More pics will be up tomorrow.

 

I say rebuild the turbo since you are gonna port the wastegate. It's actually quite easy and cheap.

 

little update:

Injectors are in, ECU is in, fuel pump is in, Exhaust is ready to go in, Turbo has been modified.

 

the original wastegate port was 13mm, now it is 32mm....so i needed a 34mm flapper door:

the flapper door is stainless steel, 34mm OD, and has a 1mm deep section that is 31.5mm OD, so it sits inside the 32mm wastegate port, to help sealing, and centering.

 

nice quality work there ! turbo looks great, i need to cop some of those injectors.....
