Thank you for hosting them SonicRaT! Well, damn. How is this gonna work? I was not planning on using the brake coolers, just put the 3rd ram air scoop somewhere in the front lip. Hmmm. The FTP lens thing will not work w/o some really crazy setup. And the headlight cover will need to close when the headlights are up, so to keep the box sealed. I will get the parts made, send one to ya Mobius, if it works, and then we can go from there! Great pics, Mobius!

Won't have an engine for about a month, unless I take out a loan or something (that sounds like a good idea!) Right now it's mostly getting the parts together, cleaning it all out, making everything thats there function right, making it a 5 speed, etc. I have the t2 tranny already, and my LSD is installed, i just need to get a new driveshaft, i found out my 'automatic' wasn't really an auto driveshaft, not sure wtf it is for, but i'm gonna just have mazdatrix or someone make me one if they will

On the driveshaft, a guy on www.thepartstrader.com is selling an after maerket one custom made for his rex for $150. Not sure if it will work though, but hell, wouldn't hurt to check it out!!!

I'm planning on going through at least 2 engines until I learn my lesson I'm hoping to upgrade the turbo and maybe put some N20 on there, see what I can get my quarters to. After I grenade my NA rearend, I'll swap it for a T2 rear, but until then, I'm going to port it out myself, lighten it up as much I can, and see what I can get it to do. Hopefully it will outrun my truck, which does quarters in about 14.7

Ok, will do, I started to release the freon earlier today, and it wasn't bothering me at all, wasn't even cold, but it sure did go forever, I gave up on it and let it be, which one should I empty from, the one on top, or bottom?

It looks like a tire valve, just press it in with a screwdriver and make sure your hand isnt in the way, I'm going to start with the top one first because it doesnt spray anything out like the bottom does. Hey I have a question for you, what is that cylinder looking thing WAY in the top right corner of this picture?
