the project begins!!

well my coolant seal died so i descided while the cars down (for the next 2-3 weeks) while the motors bein rebuilt and street ported im gonna fix and customise some stuff...so here's the basic list of whats goin down

ENGINE-
1. rebuild
2. street port
3. repaint cusco blue and black striped with blue acces mounts
4. polish the living hell out of the intake manifold
5. RB header (within a few weeks of this)
6. fabricat new radiator mounts for the koyo that has provisions to attach the black magic fan cleaner
7. clean up all wiring
8. braided SS clutch/fuel lines

INTERIOR
1. autometer cobalt water temp gauge in the pillar
2. clean up interior wiring for stereo etc...
3. strip the carpet in the hatch, not to be cool, just cuz that carpet is ****** ratty and gross
4. painting that support for those rear consoles white to match and thinking about covering the openings for the bins with flat mdf and using that to mount 2 10" subs.

EXTERIOR
1. modernize the taillights
2. black tint the parking lights, ftps, and sidemarkers and windows

thats about it for now, im sure i'll come up with more as i go but i'll definately be postin a lot fo pics cuz i have a tendancy to take lots of pics when i build ****

oh hell yea...i just ran the wiring really quick to make sure the black madic fan was working (before i discovered it was actually a blown coolant seal that was causing the cooling issue) so what im gonna be doing is...when i take the dash out to replace the heatercore im gonna drill through my firewall ncie n high and run all that wiring through ti as well as the wiring for my water temp gauge, and everythign will get that black split loom to keep ti all together.
