i'll dig up some pics of the front end.
it's time to finally start working on this thing again and get it ready for next year. i ended up getting a new chassis to replace the old one since it's seen too much abuse. i picked up a 1986 base model WITHOUT sunroof! It has 67k original miles and looks like it drove out of a 1986 dealer showroom. interior pics. if anyone wants ANYTHING from the interior hit me up. I won't be reusing any of it. it's all pretty much perfect. seats had seat covers and so did the steering wheel. https://farm7.staticflickr.com/6117/...21d92121_z.jpg https://farm7.staticflickr.com/6108/...a3503fc5_z.jpg In the meantime I've been tearing down my old car. https://farm7.staticflickr.com/6104/...1056138a_z.jpg https://farm7.staticflickr.com/6033/...16e9fa31_z.jpg So far i've removed most of the engine stuffs and the rear subframe. I'll be doing a lot more work to the new chassis. dual calipers, 1900mm GT wing, evo brembos(with dual rears), shaved engine bay, wilwood or tilton pedal assembly, custom flca for lots more angle, and possibly a fuel cell of sorts. |
should be sick when its all finished you keeping it blue?

Do you have any mods to counteract fuel starvation at speed? I know people usually use surge tanks, but I didn't see anything in your setup list.

A few more things to take out from the interior and it'll be going to the new owner. SOOOOO nice having a removable core support. Motor took 30 minutes to take out. And half that time was spent figuring out what song to play while pulling the motor. Also got me an upgrayedd. Evo Brembos. Extra pair for the rear on the dual caliper setup. Now to order that Wilwood pedal setup and delete the brake booster/master cylinder uglies. https://farm7.staticflickr.com/6058/...53376c31_b.jpg |

to run the evo rotors you need brackets to raise the caliper higher.
