I could swear my car was closer to 28k, but they were well equipped cars thats for sure.

she is a muttly, I adopted her to keep my other rottie company, but I had to put him down last summer.
She looked like purebreed rottie sitting in the dog pound, then she grew to what she is now, but she is a great little shop dog.

RIP Buddy, 130lb big baby

 

damn rob that hood is flawless. why didn't i have you paint my car again?

 

Your FD looks fantastic, god forbid I should get a easy car like a FD, ******* FCs are a pain in the *** to paint.

Its still not quite flawless, some of the glue spots were really hard to go to so I could only release the glue but could not push on the metal at all. Im thinking of a custom hood, just dont know what to get. Only way to get that flat hood perfect is to put a skin coat of filler on the entire and I dont want that, will live with a dimple here and there that most cant even see.

So I drove the car last night to get gas, felt good. Now I just have to respray the lip, finish polishing the car, and get the car over to Roan to do my Wolf upgrade, I should be done this week.

 

bolted the lip back on now that I painted it. Im going to leave the bumper as it is and take it for a drive and see how temps are.
I put all new foam between the oil cooler-ac condensor- and radiator.

I also got a new hood insulation pad from the dealer, when I went to take the old one off my other hood it started to fall apart.

Im bleeding the coolant as I type this, then its a few blasts down the highway and off to get the computer upgrade and MSD upgrade. My Raptor 7 LED warning light should be here tomoroww too which will get its signal from the shift light output of the wolf so I will have a nice bright blue LED shift light blaring in my face when I hit redline.

 

got my Raptor light in, I was going with a Harlan which has dip switches so you dont need any pills, but being that my new
Wolf has shift light output I was able to go with a even smaller LED indicator light that Raptor puts out. Raptor and Harlan both put out ultra compact LED lights that require no additional pills or boxes.

Anyhow Im going to install this right now so when we upgrade the computer in the next week or so Ill be good to go.

You can see how small it is, not even 2" long, and its the diamater of a penny, 3/4"

Bright *** thing too, I went with blue so it would be super noticable even in daylight.

 

beautiful job!

 

well the car is off getting its wolf upgrade, also putting a MSD in the car as well.

Here was another winter project that I just drove today for the first time, I put gauges in my coupe.
Just have to figure out if im going to plug up the 2 holes in the panel or put a switch or light there.
The tach on the pillar is also a shift light, all LED red lights come on when its time to shift, and in that car shifting comes real quick
and the factory tach is off at higher RPMs so it was a good addition.

damm I should have put the wheel straight for the picture

 

/\ Looks Good

 

went back to the dyno tonight to tune the Wolf V500.
Wayne from Waynespeed worked his magic and played with the setting and we utilized the built in boost controller and even a shift light output from the Wolf. The wolf offers so much most people, including myself, do not realize what it can do when the right person is tuning it.

Big thanks to Roan, Steve, Marley, and anyone else im leaving out.
Im happy with the magic number of 400hp and about 285 ft lbs torque.
I have more graphs but I have to scan them, and its late and I need to go to sleep!

Im going to cross post this to my previous dyno thread and my other project thread.

 

Full s5 conversion to my vert and get my gauges ready to be installed

 

Well its middle of winter here (64 °F), so installed my gilmer drive.
Personally I think it came up well.

 

very nice

 

You had me at Meziere.

Any better pics of the alt relocate bracket?
