Update 5/22/10:

wheels were sealed and set in the sun to cure while buffing.

Next is to mount the tires, and install the moldings...then it needs a detail job.











this last photo is after installing the gas door, and sunroof seal...buffed the entire car, and machine polished it...still needs a foam pad glaze.

 

nice

 

been here since day 1...
looking foward to seeing it detailed, with the wheels, and some nice random lighted tunnels or something of that nature where the photoshoot takes place.

 

 

picked up the rest of my parts from the polisher, installed the moldings, cleaned the exterior.

took the car for a 3 mile drive today, everything works perfectly.

 

Moarr

 

Just awesome.... The body work on this car makes me want to learn how

 

Aw man this car is so sweet!

Its simple yet tastesfull mods, era correct wheels and factory badging what really makes this car what it is.

Nice job dude, keep this thread going please!

 

Pics of the wheels and tires, mounted on the car will be up this weekend. Possibly doing a mini photoshoot this sat with a few buddys. We will see.

update 5/29/2010:

wheels and tires mounted, time to adjust height, and a little rear camber.
the contour of the tire stretch match's the contour of the 1/4 panel pull perfectly, so with a little more rear camber, and about 1/2" lower, it will be a perfect fit that doesn't have a retarded amount of rear camber.

 

damn car looks sexy! love the lip too. thats the volvo one right?

 

car looks amazing.. yea just some rear camber and drop a ttad, and your set..
`
well done ..

 

it might not need anymore rear camber. Ill adjust the height tonight and see where its at.

 

about ******* time! and HOLY HELL THAT LOOKS GOOD!

 

sorry, i didn't think 4 months from start to finish (with a 1 month break in the middle, to build a different car) was a long time.

ill go faster next time.

 

Are you still running 255's in the rear?

Congrats on the finish, what a car.

 

234/40 front
255/40 rear

i kept the 255 rear because i wanted the amount of stretch to fit perfectly inside the pull on the 1/4's.

 

i didnt mean it that way...

 

Truly a amazing project. You are a very gifted man. Looking forward to any more updates to come

 

now thats a hot S4

 

nice job man, your car looks good.

 

Thanks. There will be more updates. Suspension, and power are my next points of focus. Suspension will be first because there isnt much more to do. Power will consist of collecting a few choice parts to put me into the 350whp club.

This coming winter engine will be pulled for a complete wire harness tuck, relocation of everything, and some fresh black paint in the engine bay.

Stay Tuned.

 

damm I just read this thread from start to finish and **** Is sick. I am also building my $100 rx7 T2 (91)
I will soon create a thread...

 

yam yam... YAM YAM... (if I could show you the sound, that would be better.)
